Key technology

New casing constructionA casing developed to be more durable than the previous model, for more working trips.
Maximum Bead Strength5 extra bead wires make the bead stronger, reducing bead damage when loaded and when mounting or removing tires.
Rubber Insert on Lower SidewallAn insert in the lower sidewall stiffens it, keeping the vehicle steadier and easier to control under heavy loads.
Combined Rubber CompoundsA two-layer compound: a hard 100% natural rubber outer layer protects the casing, and a soft synthetic inner layer reduces heat buildup.
