WestLake Radial SC328 175/80 R16C 98/96Q

The WestLake SC328 summer tire is perfect for installation on almost any modern minivan or small-tonnage truck. At the same time, this model is advantageous not only due to its extensive size range but also due to its excellent load capacity, strength, and traction, to which we can only add a very attractive cost.

Long service life

Among the numerous advantages of the WestLake SC328 tire, it is especially worth noting the long service life, which the Chinese tire manufacturers were able to achieve mainly due to the rubber mixture and some features of the tread pattern.

Its main difference is the open design and the increased number of traction edges. This was achieved by reducing the distance between individual blocks, which made it possible to solve several tasks at once. First of all, a significant reduction in rolling resistance, which in turn led to an improvement in fuel efficiency.

In addition, all four ribs formed by the blocks are approximately equal in size, which optimized the uniformity of weight distribution across the contact patch. One of the main advantages of this design is high resistance to uneven wear, which has increased the service life of the tread.

Improved traction properties on wet roads
Another interesting feature of this tread pattern is the zigzag edges of the longitudinal ribs. During movement, they form additional traction edges, providing more reliable traction, especially on wet roads.

In addition, the tread is equipped with a high-performance drainage system. Its performance is ensured by three very voluminous longitudinal grooves, as well as numerous transverse channels through which excess water leaves the contact patch.

Main features of the WestLake SC328 tire

- uniform distribution of external weight across the contact patch due to a rigid carcass and massive dimensions of the tread elements, which increased strength and load capacity, as well as resistance to uneven wear;
- four longitudinal ribs provide the tire with excellent directional stability and low fuel consumption;
- numerous traction edges formed by the numerous blocks and zigzag edges of the longitudinal drainage channels have significantly improved traction, especially on slippery roads.
