Leao LLA08

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• All weather traction
• Self-cleaning capability
• Enhanced controllability

OVERVIEW

The Leao LLA08 is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for commercial vehicles. It was made to be mounted on all axle positions.

The tire boosts the year round performing ability. The flat footprint's ribbed tread design and the durable compound increase the all weather traction. The better road contact of the solid ribs optimize the surface contact and boost the grip on the road surface in dry, wet and winter weather conditions. The tread's compound manages to optimize its rubber flexibility with the stronger compound elements to further improve the driving safety level. The tread features zigzag circumferential grooves which disperse water and slush from below the footprint, actively resisting hydroplaning in the process.

The tread design manages to keep the footprint clean. The zigzag circumferential grooves eliminate mud and snow stuck between the tread elements, preventing them from blocking the tire's surface contact during its performance. These tread elements also help resist stone retention. The grooves eject rocks stuck between the tread elements, before they can drill into the casing and damage the casing. This ensures a safer, damage free performance. However, the tread design's optimized surface contact also allows the tire to improve the tread life. The flat footprint maintains the surface contact throughout the drive, which ensures even tread wear along the tread area. This resists premature wear formations, upgrading the tread life length and ensuring a quality performance.

The LLA08 boosts the controllability. The ribbed tread design upgrades the surface contact throughout the drive. As the tire maintains the road surface contact at all times, which increases the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In other words, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. The shoulder ribs also upgrade the cornering capability with the stronger surface contact. This enables the driver to maintain control over the vehicle, which further improves the driving safety levels.
