Carlisle (Carlstar) Radial Trail RH ST 87L D (8 Ply) Trailer Tire

Carlisle Radial Trail RH. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All Season Traction; Improved Handling Ability; Enhanced Durability; . OVERVIEW: The Carlisle Radial Trail RH is an all season, highway terrain 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 five-rib tread has an incredibly detailed pattern full of lateral and angled sipes and notches. Those are there to deal with the wet road conditions and also to establish traction whenever necessary. This includes even harsher dry, winter, or rainy conditions when it is important to keep up the performance. The compound itself also helps with traction, as it stays flexible during summer and winter as well. The grooves and notches help channel the water away from the footprint, ensuring consistent contact.The wide, flat tread footprint not only takes care of traction but it ensures a high level of stability as well. With all five ribs constantly touching the road surface, driving pressure is uniformly divided and the tire becomes more stable. The tread pattern is also symmetric, which further enhances stability, resulting in faster and more accurate steering responsiveness. This makes driving in harsh weather conditions safer and easier.This model is made of a strong rubber compound that enhances its load capacity and provides it with heat resistant technology. Therefore, the heat generated by the driving pressure won't speed up tread wear that much, ensuring long tread life. The tire's sturdiness also comes in handy for damage resistance, as it is constructed with puncture resistance in mind. The Radial Trail RH is able to perform safely on the highway while carrying heavy loads in all weather conditions.
