Nanco S622. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Excellent durability; . OVERVIEW: The Nanco S622 is a touring all season tire manufactured 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 tire promotes great all weather traction. The symmetric ribbed tread pattern design ensures constant road contact which enhances the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The improved road grip is further improved with the tire's hydroplaning resistance. The circumferential zigzag grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The result is a safer driving experience in all weather.The ribbed tread pattern allows the tire to closely follow the road surface in all conditions. This improves the tire's controllability as it increases the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. The steering responsiveness becomes faster and more precise, while the tire's structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting it. The maintained optimal shape also closely follows the road surface, ensuring a secure driving experience.The S622 features a bias ply internal structure. The bias ply structure prevents durability under the driving and load pressure and optimizes the tire's structure. It upgrades the tire's load carrying and withstanding durability and it prevents deformation under the pressure affecting the tire. At the same time, the bias ply reinforcement lowers the road vibrations and offers a softer drive, decreasing the bounciness of the trailer.This is a bias ply or diagonal tire. Due to the tire's internal construction and size, it is possible that the tire will look deformed. Smaller diagonal tires do not have reinforced constructions that can keep the tire from deforming. The bias construction and the small tire's non-reinforced internal structure allow the tire to fold in when it is deflated or not properly inflated. This is not constructional damage or an issue; it is a normal occurrence with such tires. In such cases, the tire needs to be mounted and inflated to the proper PSI or, in some instances, an inner tube needs to be added. The proper PSI and the inner tube are able to maintain the tire's ideal shape, preventing the bias plies from looking deformed. This ensures their performing safety and durability.The photo is a representation of the tire's possible deformation, it does not represent the specific tire model, size, tread pattern and application. 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.
