Patriot H/T

The special symmetric ribbed tread pattern and the all season compound boost the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The ribbed pattern firmly grips the road surface throughout the year, while the compound keeps its flexible traction even in colder temperatures. The tread's wide circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by eliminating water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The result of the stronger all season traction and the exceptional hydroplaning resistance is a secure year round performance.

This upgrades the load durability and the tread life. The spread-out weight helps maintain the tire's optimal shape under the load pressure affecting the tire. In this manner, the model is capable of carrying and withstanding heavier loads with ease. The better load durability offers a wider range of application for the tire. The equally distributed forces of acceleration, cornering and braking lengthens the tread life by preventing irregular wear formations across the tread area. The constantly even tread wear significantly lengthens the tread life and the tire's usability.

The ribbed pattern keeps the tire's road contact at all times, which boosts the steering responsiveness, driving stability and cornering capability. It secures the structure against the driving pressure affecting the tire, while it quickens the steering responsiveness to the driver's instructions. The shoulder blocks heighten the number of biting edges to ensure a safer cornering and maneuvering capability. This combination enables the driver to confidently control the vehicle in all weather.

The optimized tread block placement decreases the road noise levels heard in the vehicle's cabin. It channels the airwaves through the tire's footprint, without letting them come into contact with the tread elements. In this manner, the road and tread pattern noise is not generated while the tires are in motion, ensuring an enjoyable and quiet drive.
