The XT 2x, also a drive pattern tire, is engineered for extra strength, has extra deep tread with high mileage tread compound for better life, optimized shoulder lugs for better durability and reinforced casing for enhanced load carrying capacity.
The XR 1x, a steer pattern tire, is engineered for extra life, has high tread depth with a modular matrix tread for reduced rate of wear and longer tire life, a stress-relieving deeper shoulder window for faster heat dissipation and 100% tie bar protected ribs for better durability.
The XT series drive patterns are engineered for enhanced traction and durability across varied operating conditions, while the XR steer pattern is optimized for stability, handling and even wear – together offering a balanced, performance-driven solution for fleet operations.
