The Barum Cargo OR56 summer commercial tire stands out from most of its competitors not only with its attractive price, but also with a number of other advantages. The use of simple yet extremely effective technologies in its design has given this model very high technical characteristics. Additionally, its perfect balance is noteworthy, as evidenced by the absence of any pronounced "weak points".
Four equally sized tread ribs
Due to the specific characteristics of commercial vehicle operation, the tread design of this tire features a number of distinctive characteristics. The key one is the equally sized dimensions of all four tread ribs, as well as their continuous, seamless construction. The combination of these features makes the contact patch area significantly larger, and also optimizes the load distribution across it. This gives the tire not only good traction on dry surfaces and high-speed stability, but also good fuel efficiency and excellent resistance to uneven wear.
Reliable behavior on slippery roads
Despite the absence of blocks as such, the tread pattern of this tire features a significant number of gripping edges. They are formed during movement, both due to the zigzag shape of the longitudinal ribs and the numerous lamellas in the shoulder areas. They demonstrate the greatest effectiveness on wet roads. In this regard, it is worth noting the drainage grooves located between the ribs. The combination of their large width and the increased depth of the tread itself allows them to provide the tire with good resistance to aquaplaning.
