American Tourer SU317 H/T

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• High driving comfort levels
• Enhanced controllability
• All season traction

OVERVIEW

The American Tourer SU317 H/T is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for SUVs.

High driving comfort levels are ensured with the asymmetric tread design. The asymmetric pattern's ribs guarantee the tire's close road contact at all times, which absorbs the shock of driving. This significantly decreases the road vibrations felt by the passengers. The tread's sipe and notch pattern generate a special sound-cancelling frequency while the tires are in motion. As a result, the tire decreases the road noise levels heard by the passengers. The quiet and comfortable performance greatly improves the passengers' driving enjoyment.

The asymmetric ribbed tread design maintains the surface contact. The ribbed pattern ensures the road contact throughout the performance, which boosts the steering responsiveness and driving stability. This guarantees a quick and precise steering response to the driver's commands, while the structural stability is maintained under the load and driving pressure. The shoulder block pattern increases the cornering ability with the use of extra biting edges. On the other hand, the tread elements generate friction during braking, greatly decreasing the braking power. The combination promotes exceptional controllability and maneuvering.

The SU317 H/T provides great all season traction. The all season compound and the detailed ribbed tread design enhance the dry, wet, and winter weather grip. The stronger compound elements allow the tire to upgrade the rubber flexibility during the performance, optimizing the summer and winter weather traction. The sipe and lateral grooves firmly grip the road surface with the use of extra biting edges. The four circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the footprint in wet weather conditions.
