Description Sumitomo ST908
The cargo summer tire Sumitomo ST 908, developed by Japanese engineers, is designed for installation on the driving axle. It is recommended for SUVs, small trucks and pickups with the ability to withstand all the difficulties of long trips. The model can be used not only in the summer, as it was designed to provide high-quality traction during operation at any time of the year.
Tread Modeling
Computer-aided tread modeling provides excellent traction and long mileage. The Sumitomo ST908 tire is characterized by a deep tread pattern, which significantly increases the traction force and extends the life of the tire. A special stabilizer is used to create auxiliary links between the tread lugs, which improves the reliability and safety of the tire. 4 steel breaker belts, located between the tread and the carcass, help to withstand punctures.
Deep Tread Pattern
The tread pattern has two important elements for forming optimal contact with the road surface. The first is the central lugs divided by narrow drainage grooves, which are responsible for increased traction and prevention of lateral slippage. The second element of the tread design is represented by massive shoulder blocks, divided between themselves by wide and deep water-dispelling grooves. They act as off-road traction devices on soft surfaces, as well as provide the necessary traction on asphalt in rainy weather.
Patented Rubber Compound
The mutual heating of the tread components and their wear are reduced due to the use of an original rubber compound. This technology makes it possible to achieve high economy and safe operation of the tire at high speeds.
