Грузовые шины Hankook Z59

The Hankook Z59 cargo tire occupies a unique position in the model range of the world-renowned South Korean brand. The fact is that this particular model is designed for installation on light trucks and buses using wheels with a mounting diameter of 14 to 16 inches. At the same time, a correctly selected size range, which includes only a few types, provides it with excellent applicability. Also, it is worth noting the universality of this tire's application, which is ensured by the original design of the tread pattern, providing excellent traction on various types of surfaces, from asphalt to dirt and snow roads.

Low Rolling Resistance

Despite the presence of a large number of traction edges, this model is favorably distinguished by reduced rolling resistance. It is achieved due to the closed design of the shoulder areas of the tread. Each of them is a very rigid longitudinal rib, the presence of which significantly reduces rolling resistance.

Also, it is impossible not to mention a number of other advantages provided by the reinforced construction of the shoulder areas of the tread. First of all, these are increased contact patch sizes and optimal pressure distribution across it.

Large Number of Traction Edges

As mentioned earlier, this model is favorably distinguished by the presence of a significant number of traction edges. Almost all of them are located in the central part of the tread pattern, formed by numerous blocks with a complex polygonal shape. Additional traction edges are formed due to the zigzag shape of the edges of the shoulder areas. All this allowed for a significant improvement in traction, especially on slippery surfaces.
