Westlake CM986

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• All weather traction
• Improved drive wheel performance
• Enhanced load durability

OVERVIEW

The Westlake CM986 is a highway terrain all season tire manufactured for commercial vehicles. This model was designed to be mounted on the vehicle's drive axle.

The model promotes great all weather traction. The optimized tread block placement with the detailed siping design finds firm grip in dry, wet and winter weather, while the all weather compound does not lose its flexibility in colder temperatures. The siping detail increases the number of biting edges that are capable of gripping the winter weather road surface. The interlocking groove pattern manages to prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The better hydroplaning resistance and excellent all weather traction ensure a secure year round driving experience.

The tire's traction tread block design improves its road contact. It provides a flat footprint that closely follows the road surface in all weather. This improves its responsiveness to the driver's commands and upgrades the driving stability. The enhanced response time and accuracy and ensured stability boost the drive wheel's efficiency and allow the driver to confidently control the vehicle. The increased controllability guarantees a safer performance.

The CM986 has exceptional durability. The stronger internal structure improves the driving and load durability. The reinforced steel belts of the model's construction maintain the tire's optimal shape under the driving and load pressure affecting the tire. In this manner, the tire's capability to carry and withstand heavy loads is significantly increased, allowing the model to easily perform in such situations.
