Farroad FRD96. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Longer lasting tread life; . OVERVIEW: The Farroad FRD96 is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for commercial vehicles.The tire offers exceptional all weather traction. The tread design and all season tire compound work together to boost the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The tread design's symmetric tread pattern, with the optimal siping detail, firmly grips the road surface all year round. The all season tire compound maintains the tire's flexibility and prevents weather damage from harming the tread area. The tread's wide circumferential grooves disperse water and slush from below the tire's footprint, which effectively resists hydroplaning in wet weather. The enhanced all weather traction and hydroplaning resistance guarantee a secure driving experience throughout the year.The model promotes a longer lasting tread life. The symmetric tread design features two center ribs and an optimal shoulder tread block pattern that enhance the tread life. They maintain the tire's road contact at all times, which enables the tread elements to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally spread out forces of acceleration, braking and cornering avoids irregular tread wear formations, which boosts the tread life and the tire's usability significantly.The FRD96 is easily controlled. The tread design's constant road contact upgrades the tire's year round controllability. The center ribs and shoulder design keep the tire's road contact throughout the year. In this manner, the tire boosts its steering responsiveness and driving stability. The steering becomes faster and more precise in its responsiveness to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. The better road contact and controllability enables the driver to confidently maneuver the vehicle in all conditions. 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.
