BFGoodrich ST244

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Enhanced controllability
• Fuel efficient performance
• Longer lasting tread life

OVERVIEW

The BFGoodrich ST244 is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for commercial vehicles. It was made to be mounted on the vehicle's steer axle.

The tire upgrades its controllability. The tread's symmetric ribbed tread design with the solid shoulder ribs upgrade the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. As a result, the tire increases the steering response time and accuracy to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the tire. The better road contact, in this manner, increases the driver's control over the vehicle and enables the driver to confidently maneuver the vehicle throughout the year.

The tread's optimal pattern extends the tire's usability. The symmetric ribbed pattern maintains the tire's contact with the road surface which evenly distributes the driving pressure along the tread area. This is further aided by the rib edge siping detail and the decoupling grooves which prevent irregular tread wear formations along the tread area. The equally distributed driving pressure avoids uneven wear to lengthen the tread life and the tire's usability.

The ST244 features a fuel efficient performance. The fuel saving compound decreases the rolling resistance by increasing the tire's traction in various weather conditions. The rolling resistance is the driving pressure affecting the model, which determines the amount of energy the vehicle needs to keep the tires in motion. The lowered rolling resistance reduces the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, which ensures a fuel conscious and environmentally friendly driving experience.
