Crosswind A/T

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• All weather traction
• All terrain traction
• Enhanced controllability
• Longer lasting tread life

OVERVIEW

The Crosswind A/T is an all terrain, all season tire manufactured for SUVs and light trucks. Crosswind offers a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty with this tire model.

The tire promotes great all weather traction. The all season tire compound and tread pattern work together to increase the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping capability. The tread block pattern firmly grips the road and terrain surface throughout the year, while the compound maintains its flexibility even in colder temperatures. The tread's wide grooves and open shoulder design avoid hydroplaning when driving through standing water as it disperses water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The better hydroplaning resistance and excellent all weather performance ensure a safer year round driving experience.

The tread design also enhances the model's all terrain traction. The independent, staggered tread blocks, wide grooves and open shoulder design allows the tire to conquer all soft, loose and uneven terrains with ease. They ensure a safer off-road performance, which enhances the tire's terrain versatility. The tread also maintains a clean footprint and prevents stone retention from harming the casing by eliminating mud and ejecting stones stuck between the tread elements. In this manner, the tire ensures constant road and terrain contact, improving the driving security.

The tread design offers an optimized footprint and road contact. This keeps the tire close to the road and terrain surface at all times, which enhances the tread life. It equally spreads the driving pressure out across the tread area. The evenly distributed forces of acceleration, cornering and braking lengthen the tread life and the tire's usability by resisting irregular tread wear formations on the tire's tread surface. In this manner, the tire is more cost efficient as it has a longer service life.

The tire's tread design upgrades its controllability. The tread features a continuous block rib on the tread center that keeps the tire's road and terrain contact. This improves the steering responsiveness and driving stability greatly. In other words, it secures the structure against the driving pressure affecting it, while boosting the steering response time and accuracy to the driver's commands. The increased steering and stability allow the driver to confidently control the vehicle in all weather and on all terrain surface conditions.

The A/T guarantees a quiet on-road drive. The open shoulder design and the tire's close road contact channel the airwaves through the tire's footprint without allowing them to come into contact with the tread elements. As a result, the road and tread pattern noise is not generated and not heard in the vehicle's cabin.
