Samson Trailer Express

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

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

OVERVIEW

The Samson Trailer Express is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for trailers. This tire is NOT MEANT TO BE MOUNTED ON LIGHT TRUCKS, as its construction will not support the weight and performing style of such vehicles. It can ONLY BE MOUNTED ON TRAILERS.

The tire upgrades the all weather traction. The all season compound and the ribbed tread design improve the dry, wet and winter weather grip. The stronger compound elements optimize the rubber flexibility in versatile temperatures, optimizing the summer and winter weather performance. The siping and groove pattern helps to upgrade the grip on the road surface with the use of extra biting edges. The zigzag circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from the footprint, resulting in a secure wet weather performance.

The symmetric ribbed tread design maintains the surface contact while the tires are in motion. This allows the tire to enhance the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In other words, the tire improves the steering response time and accuracy to the towing vehicle's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the tire. As a result, the tire upgrades the overall controllability, as it ensures the towing vehicle's better control over the trailer.

The Trailer Express also enhances the length of the usability as well with the tread design and the tire compound. They work together to guarantee a slower and even wear across the tread area. The stabilized tread elements enable the tire to evenly circulate the driving forces along the footprint, combating irregular wear formations. The stronger compound elements upgrade the tread life by using wear-resistant elements and reducing the treadwear rate. This greatly upgrades the tire's service life.

This is a bias ply or diagonal tire. Due to the tire's internal construction and size, it is possible that the tire will look deformed. Smaller diagonal tires do not have reinforced constructions that can keep the tire from deforming. The bias construction and the small tire's non-reinforced internal structure allow the tire to fold in when it is deflated or not properly inflated. This is not constructional damage or an issue; it is a normal occurrence with such tires. In such cases, the tire needs to be mounted and inflated to the proper PSI or, in some instances, an inner tube needs to be added. The proper PSI and the inner tube are able to maintain the tire's ideal shape, preventing the bias plies from looking deformed. This ensures their performing safety and durability.

The photo is a representation of the tire's possible deformation, it does not represent the specific tire model, size, tread pattern and application.

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.
