- Longer-lasting tread life
OVERVIEW
The Hankook Smart Flex AH31 is a highway terrain, all season tire made for commercial vehicles. This model is designed to be mounted on all axle positions.
The model offers great performance throughout the year. The ribbed tread design and the all season compound improve traction in dry, wet, and winter conditions. In this manner, the ideal tread design maintains road contact in different conditions. The all season compound keeps the rubber flexible in summer and winter temperatures. Also, wide grooves eliminate water and slush from the footprint, in order to resist hydroplaning. These elements guarantee the tire's safety performance in all weather conditions.
The ribbed tread design and the close road contact improve overall controllability. This tread pattern manages to closely follow the road surface, which increases steering responsiveness and driving stability. The steering response time becomes quicker and more precise to the driver's instructions, while the structure is stabilized against driving pressure. The outer ribs help the tire to have better cornering and maneuvering. These elements work together to boost the driver's control over the vehicle.
The robust internal structure and the rubber compound provide excellent load and driving durability. These elements maintain the optimal tire shape under load and driving pressure. As a result, it does not allow the tire to deform throughout its performance. It increases the model's load-carrying and withstanding ability, which boosts the load capacity. This tire is perfect for commercial applications.
The Hankook Smart Flex AH31 lengthens its service life. The ideal tread design evenly distributes the driving pressure along the tread area. At the same time, the rubber compound significantly reduces the treadwear rate. This slow and even wear significantly increases the tire's tread life for a longer period of time.
