Rugged Terrain (R/T) Design: This tire is engineered for light trucks and SUVs, bridging the gap between an aggressive mud-terrain tire and a more road-friendly all-terrain, offering strong performance across various challenging surfaces.
Enhanced Off-Road Traction: Features an open pattern shoulder design and a staggered shoulder shape, which improve longitudinal grip in mud, gravel, and snow. Different under-shoulder patterns protect the tire from side rock damage and enhance grip in low-adhesion conditions.
Balanced On-Road Comfort and Performance: Despite its aggressive off-road capabilities, the tread design, with a large shoulder matching a smaller pattern block in the middle, aims to ensure off-road performance while also improving comfort on paved roads and reducing regular noise.
Durable and Damage Resistant: Incorporates strong skeleton material to prevent damage from rocks and debris, with side-wall features designed to protect the tire shoulder and upper sidewall, ensuring durability in rugged environments.
