Armstrong ATR12 235/75R17.5 143/141J J (18 Ply)

Armstrong ATR12

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• All weather traction
• Enhanced controllability
• Longer-lasting tread life
• Fuel-efficient performance

OVERVIEW

The Armstrong ATR12 is a highway terrain, all weather tire manufactured for commercial vehicles. This model was designed for trailer axles.

The tire offers excellent year-round traction. The symmetric ribbed tread design and the durable compound improve the tire's dry, wet, and winter grip. This helps to effectively improve the tire's surface traction by generating biting edges. Additionally, stronger rubber materials keep rubber flexibility throughout the year, optimizing their summer and winter performance. Circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning in wet conditions, dispersing water and slush from the footprint. These improvements allow the tire's exceptional all weather applications.

The tread pattern's road contact helps to upgrade its controllability. The ribbed tread design helps maintain consistent contact with the road surface, thanks to the solid shoulder ribs. This results in better steering responsiveness and driving stability. As a result, it offers quick and precise steering responses, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. Additionally, the tire is able to effectively enable the tire's exceptional handling and maneuvering.

The tread design and the durable compound also work together in order to improve its usability. The stable ribbed tread pattern allows the tire to avoid tread flexing, enabling even pressure circulation. This prevents irregular wear formations. On the other hand, the compound keeps the rubber flexibility, utilizing wear-resistant elements. In this manner, the tire avoids premature wear formations. Reduced and even wear significantly boosts the overall treadwear rate.

The Armstrong ATR12 is able to decrease its rolling resistance. The compound and the ribbed tread design help to reduce the pressure placed on the footprint throughout the drive. This significantly reduces the vehicle's fuel intake and CO2 emissions, resulting in a fuel-efficient driving experience.

All weather tires receive the three mountain peak and snowflake (3PMS) symbol for their exceptional winter weather performance. They are all season tires with extra winter weather grip, in order to guarantee safer year-round durability. This ensures their true and secure driving ability throughout the year.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
