Zeetex CT1000. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Load carrying capability; Longer lasting tread life; Enhanced controllability; . OVERVIEW: The Zeetex CT1000 is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for commercial trucks and vans.The model is easily controlled in all weather. The tread pattern promotes a flat tire footprint which keeps the tire close to the road surface at all times. This increases the steering responsiveness and the driving stability, which in turn guarantee a better handling. The steering is quick and precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the tire's structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting it during the drive. The shoulder tread block sequence provides additional biting edges during cornering and maneuvering. The enhanced cornering capability makes the tire safer to use in such conditions and offers excellent driving security.The internal structure features a rugged casing construction. The reinforced construction boosts the tire's load handling ability and enables it to transport and withstand heavy loads. The enhanced strength gives a versatile use to the tire and allows it to perform to its highest capability, even while carrying loads. This construction also extends the tread life. It maintains the tire's optimal shape which, along with the shoulder tread blocks, provides a flat footprint. The flat footprint prevents irregular wear from forming across the tread area. The special tire compound also promotes a longer tread life with its wear resistant structure, which slows the tread wear rate down significantly. The result is a more durable, extended tread life.The CT1000's all season tread pattern's excellent traction ensures a safer driving experience. The tread design firmly grips the road surface in dry, wet and winter weather. The wide circumferential tread grooves actively resist hydroplaning situations by eliminating water from beneath the tire footprint. There might be discrepancies of sizes between brands and models of tires which have this size formatting. As the manufacturers only provide the tire width and the rim diameter with these tires, various brands and models will have size differences. In order to ensure the correct size is purchased, the overall tire diameter that is needed should be checked.The Overall Diameter or O.D. advertised represents the tire's overall diameter in inches, once the tire has been properly inflated and mounted per the manufacturer's recommendation. This advertised number is provided to Priority Tire by the tire manufacturer. 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.
