Sierra Radial A/T Review

When you take frequent road trips and have a tendency to use non-concrete roads with your SUV or light truck, you need to know that you’re safe with the tires you’re using. Priority Tire provides you with a wide range of reliable all terrain tires, and one of out best-sellers is the Sierra Radial A/T.

This tire combines first-rate on-road traction with excellent off-road security to enable your vehicle’s best performance. The special tread design increases the year round performance and guarantees constant road and surface contact. Off-road driving has never been safer with the Radial A/T’s reinforced durability.

All Terrain Performance

The specialty of all terrain tires is their capability of performing both on and off-road. They feature tread designs to accommodate this usability and perform well throughout the year. The tread pattern maintains a clean footprint and prevents damage during off-road performance.

The Radial A/T fits this category well. Its special tread design sports large, staggered center shoulder tread blocks to increase the road grip on all soft, loose and uneven terrain surfaces. The variable shoulder pattern improves the model’s forward traction in deeper mud and loose dirt. The tread design enhances the tire’s traction both on and off-road, widening the usability and application range.

During off-road driving, mud and rocks may get stuck between the tread elements, which may create dangerous situations. Mud blocks the tire’s contact from the terrain surface, decreasing its traction, while rocks can cause stone retention and damage the tire’s casing. This model ensures that no such thing happens. The staggered tread blocks and optimized groove pattern disperse mud and eject rocks from the tread and guarantee a secure performance.

All Season Capability

Versatility is the middle name of all terrain tires and this includes their all weather performance as well.

The tread’s polygonal grooves and the zigzag siping detail located on the tread blocks boost the Radial A/T’s dry, wet and winter weather traction. The siping detail upgrades the snow and ice traction, while the tread’s self-cleaning nature eliminates snow packed between the tread elements. The exceptional traction and road grip boost the model’s year round performance, providing you with a safer driving experience.

The possibility of hydroplaning in wet weather is a hazard every tire needs to conquer! All terrain tires have the advantage against standing water on the road thanks to their high void ratio and wide tread grooves. The special lateral voids and variable tread grooves of the Radial A/T effectively resist hydroplaning, as they disperse water and slush from below the tire’s footprint. The upgraded water channeling capability significantly increases the model’s safety levels throughout the year.

All Terrain Handling

The easier it is to control your tire, the more confident you can be behind the wheel. A model’s steering responsiveness and driving stability is extremely important in order to keep the vehicle on the right track, especially on uneven surfaces.

The Radial A/T ensures a secure control over the vehicle as it maintains its road contact at all times. The stability and responsiveness are also upgraded. The tire’s tread design features a high volume of lateral voids that increase the road-to-tire contact. The even road contact guarantees the steering’s fast and accurate response to your instructions, while the tire’s structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting it.

Longer Service Life

A longer lasting tread life ensures an increased usability, which makes the model cost efficient. An extended, even tread life is the goal of all tire manufactures, as it makes them more desirable in the tire market.

The Radial A/T was manufactured with a special durable tire compound. The stronger tire compound is wear-resistant, which actively slows the tread wear rate down. The tread pattern manages to lengthen the tread life by evenly distributing the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally spread out driving forces prevents the formation of irregular wear across the tread area. The slower tread wear rate and the assured even wear extend the tread life to guarantee an increased service life.
