Maxxis CR966

Maxxis CR966 is a classic commercial model for light trucks, vans, and minivans. It is positioned by the manufacturer as a solution for intensive daily use with variable loads on the so-called "last mile" — when transporting over short distances, mainly within the city limits.

Tread and Road Behavior

The pattern has a hybrid structure with massive blocks in the central part and closed shoulder zones. The dense arrangement and large size of the elements, combined with the optimized profile of the tread, form a broad and stable contact patch, which facilitates precise trajectory holding when moving, both in a straight line and when maneuvering. At the same time, the wide longitudinal grooves of a wavy shape effectively drain water, ensuring reliable traction properties on wet surfaces. Rigid continuous shoulder ribs prevent uneven wear of the entire tread, increasing the accuracy of control when rearranging and maneuvering.

Carcass, Load, and Durability

The structure fully meets the requirements for the carrying capacity and stability of commercial tires. The multi-layer construction using a steel cord allows the tire to maintain its shape when fully loaded and at high speeds, reducing the likelihood of uneven tread wear. The rubber compound is selected for prolonged road use: it is resistant to heat and abrasive effects, maintaining its working properties over long distances. The elasticity of the compound contributes to a stable contact with the road surface and has a positive effect on handling in various driving modes.

Key Features of Maxxis CR966:

- model for light trucks, vans, and minivans with "asphalt" mode of operation;
- symmetrical tread, oriented towards reliable handling in any weather conditions;
- developed water drainage system to maintain traction on wet roads;
- reinforced construction designed for regular work with loads.
