OVERVIEW

The Lancaster LP-16 is a performance, summer tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. This model has touring sizes available as well. Lancaster offers a 60,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.

The special summer compound blend and the ribbed tread design work together to improve the tire's summer weather performance. They optimize its traction in dry and wet conditions. The consistent surface contact and ideal notch placement enhance the road grip, while the compound effectively prevents heat build-up across the tread area. Circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning as they evacuate water from below the footprint, ensuring the tire's surface contact.

The ribbed tread design also increases controllability. It maintains the road contact, enabling the tire to effectively enhance steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, it provides better control over the vehicle. The larger shoulder blocks provide additional biting edges, which effectively optimize the tire's cornering capability. High speed durability is guaranteed as the heat-resistant compound and durable structure work together.

The LP-16 sports a closed pattern on its outer shoulder. This prevents airwaves from entering the footprint and coming into contact with the tread elements. In this manner, sound waves are not formed, which greatly lowers road noise levels. A quiet and comfortable driving experience is ensured as a result.

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.
