OVERVIEW
The Hercules Terra Trac AT X-Journey is an all terrain, all weather tire made for SUVs. Hercules offers a 60,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.
Maintaining road contact with the ideal tread design helps to increase the tire’s controllability. The tire manages to maintain surface contact throughout the drive. This boosts steering responsiveness and driving stability at all times, thanks to the aggressive tread design. This combination guarantees the driver better control over the vehicle at all times. Maneuvering is also upgraded thanks to the optimal tread elements. In other words, the tire’s cornering and braking are improved, ensuring the driver’s control over the vehicle.
The tire enhances the versatile terrain traction. The optimized tread elements generate additional biting edges that enable the tire’s consistent forward motion on different terrain surfaces. This allows the tire to conquer soft, loose, and uneven terrains with ease. Additionally, the self-cleaning tread elements eliminate mud, snow, and rocks stuck in the footprint. As a result, the stone retention is avoided, while mud and snow cannot block the tire’s surface contact. This combination promotes a safe on- and off-road drive.
This model provides great all weather traction. The tire utilizes its stronger compound blend and detailed tread area to achieve this. They work together to enable the tire’s performance in dry, wet, and even harsh winter conditions. The tread’s sipes generate biting edges that boost traction. On the other hand, the compound maintains flexibility throughout the year. Grooves resist on-road hydroplaning by channeling water and slush from the footprint.
This Hercules Terra Trac AT X-Journey also guarantees great on-road comfort levels. The tread design’s variable block placement generates a special sound frequency that negates sound waves. In this manner, the tire is able to significantly boost the tire’s comfort levels. Lowering noise levels during the on-road performance manages to ensure a quiet 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.
