Predator Steel Payload All Steel ST235/85R16 235/85R16 132/127M G 14 Ply Trailer Tire

Predator Steel Payload

OVERVIEW

The Predator Steel Payload is a highway terrain, all season tire made 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 tread design upgrades the controllability. The closer and better road contact upgrades steering responsiveness and towing stability. In other words, the tire is quicker and more precise in its response to the towing vehicle's commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. Furthermore, the shoulder tread blocks provide additional biting edges to grip the road. This allows the tire to enhance its cornering and maneuvering, ensuring safer handling, as the tire guarantees a secure performance.

The tire promotes great all season traction. Year-round traction and hydroplaning resistance are offered with this model. Durable rubber materials keep the tire pliable in changing temperatures, by using weather-resistant rubber. On the other hand, the ideal tread pattern generates biting edges that firmly grip the road surface with extra biting edges. Hydroplaning is avoided thanks to the groove pattern. These grooves prevent water and slush from cutting off the tire’s road contact in wet conditions.

Excellent fuel economy is offered by lowering the rolling resistance. Its optimized road contact improves the rolling resistance by lowering it. The rolling resistance is the force affecting the tire that determines how much energy the vehicle needs to maintain motion. The decreased rolling resistance manages to reduce the vehicle’s fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, making the tire more environmentally friendly.

Great load and driving durability are ensured with the tire’s reinforced internal structure. The tire is capable of handling larger loads with ease. The construction of the tire maintains the optimal tire shape under such pressure, which helps the tire increase its load capacity. In other words, the tire is able to withstand load pressure, boosting the overall load durability.

The Predator Steel Payload ensures longer usability with the tread design and durable compound. The optimized footprint and the strong compound work together to increase the service life. The even pressure circulation avoids irregular wear formations along the tread area, while the compound decreases the overall treadwear rate. The tread’s slow and even wear manner significantly elongates the tire’s service life.

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.
