Cosmo El Tigre AT
OVERVIEW
The Cosmo El Tigre AT is an all terrain, all season tire manufactured for SUVs and light trucks. Cosmo offers a 55,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.
Cosmo also offers a road hazard warranty with this tire. Road hazard damage is harm caused to the tire during its performance. It can occur in the form of punctures, bruises, or impact breaks when the tire is driven in normal driving conditions on a federal, state, and/or locally maintained road. Cosmo's road hazard covers the first 25% of the tire's tread life or 1 year from the date of purchase (whichever comes first). The road hazard warranty covers passenger vehicle and SUV sizes and it does not include sizes of the 40 series and below and 21-inch diameters and above. In order to qualify for the road hazard, the tires must be registered with Cosmo within 45 days after the purchase.
The staggered block placement along the tread area increases the versatile terrain traction. These tread elements ensure the tire's surface traction, boosting the soft, loose, and uneven terrain gripping power. This results in the tire's deep mud and loose dirt performance, guaranteeing a constant forward motion. The tread elements also keep the footprint clean, by eliminating mud, snow, and rocks stuck between the tread elements. This prevents mud and snow from blocking the surface contact, while stone retention is effectively resisted during the performance.
The model's all weather traction is also guaranteed. The tread elements and the all season compound work together to increase the dry, wet, and winter weather grip. The detailed tread elements allow the tire to boost the grip on the road surface with extra biting edges. The durable compound elements allow the tire to improve the rubber flexibility during the performance. During the tire's on-road drive, the groove pattern disperses water and slush from the footprint in wet conditions. This results in the tire's better hydroplaning resistance.
The tread design's surface contact helps to upgrade the controllability. The ribbed block pattern ensures the tire's surface and road contact at all times. As a result, the tire greatly improves the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. This promotes a faster and more precise response to the driver's commands, while structural stability enhances driving stability. The shoulder block pattern enhances the cornering ability with the use of extra biting edges. The stronger internal structure improves the load-handling ability. The tire does not deform under the load pressure, greatly improving the load capacity.
The El Tigre AT also ensures a lengthened usability. The tread design and the durable compound increase the tread life length. The surface contact ensures even pressure circulation across the tread area, avoiding irregular wear formations. The stronger compound greatly improves the wear manner, reducing the tread wear rate. The slow and even wear boosts the tire's service life.
Not all tire sizes are suitable for all vehicle types. Please refer to the item specifications for accurate information about vehicle type fitment for this particular size.
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.
