WestLake SU318 H/T

The popularity of the WestLake SU318 off-road tire is due not so much to its attractive price as to the balance of its operational properties. At the same time, each of the technical characteristics is at a more than competitive level.

Excellent highway performance

This tire is positioned by the manufacturer as a model intended for operation, first and foremost, on highways. This is exactly why its tread has a number of characteristic features. One of them is the 5-rib design, thanks to which the tire demonstrates stable and very stable behavior at high speeds.

Another feature is the "low-radius" tread profile. This made it possible to significantly increase the size of the contact patch, while giving it a practically square shape. In motion, this manifests itself in the form of reliable traction, and also - stable and predictable behavior of the car, which is much easier to manage.

Multiple bidirectional lamellas

All tread blocks have lamellas cut into them. These small elements, when in contact with the road surface, form numerous traction edges. This solution is most effective in rainy conditions, as the lamellas not only improve traction but also increase resistance to aquaplaning, draining water into one of the nearby drainage grooves.

Main features of WestLake SU318

- excellent highway performance due to a tread pattern adapted for operation on asphalt roads;
- increased content of traction edges improves traction properties on slippery, wet roads;
