Toyo M-55

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• All season traction
• All terrain traction
• Enhanced controllability

OVERVIEW

The Toyo M-55 is an all terrain, all season tire manufactured for light trucks.

The tire promotes great all season traction. The tread pattern, with the large tread blocks and the detailed siping design, and the all season compound boost the dry, wet and winter weather traction. The tread pattern firmly grips the road surface, even on ice- and snow- covered roads. The tire is pinned for studs and #15 studs can be added to increase the ice and snow gripping capability. The compound manages to maintain its flexibility even in colder temperatures, which ensures a safer year round performance. The tread's wide circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. In this manner, the tire ensures road contact at all times, which upgrades its driving security.

The tread design also improves the all terrain performance. The tread allows the tire to be used both on- and off-road safely, which widens its usability and application. The tread's large blocks and open shoulder design work together to guarantee the model's excellent soft, loose and uneven terrain traction. On rough off-road terrain, the tire is capable of safely performing without the possibility of it losing its traction. The wide grooves, staggered tread blocks and open shoulders keep the tire's footprint clean at all times. They eliminate mud and snow and eject rocks stuck between the tread elements. As a result, the tire is never blocked from its road contact and it effectively resists stone retention, which may cause harm to the tire's casing.

The M-55 features an aggressive lug and tread block pattern which upgrades the model's controllability. This design maintains the tire's road contact at all times, which enhances the steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver's instructions, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the tire. The better steering and driving stability enables the driver to confidently control the vehicle both on- and off-road.
