Lionhart LH-501. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Longer lasting tread life; . OVERVIEW: The Lionhart LH-501 is a performance and high performance, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. This model also has some T speed rated touring sizes.The model guarantees excellent all weather traction. The all season tire compound and the detailed tread design boost the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The constant road contact ensures year round traction, while the compound maintains its exceptional flexibility in all weather. The wide circumferential and smaller lateral grooves prevent hydroplaning situations by dispersing water and slush from beneath the tire's footprint. The safer performance is upgraded with the all seasonal driving safety.The tread design's road contact boosts its controllability and maneuvering. The tread pattern's three center ribs maintain constant contact with the road surface which enhances the driving stability and the steering responsiveness. As a result, the steering becomes quick and precise, while the tire is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting it. The shoulder tread block sequences also improve the cornering ability. They provide additional biting edges that firmly grip the road surface during cornering. In this manner, the tread design ensures a more secure driving experience.The LH-501's optimized tread design upgrades the tread life and the comfort levels. It keeps the tire close to the road surface and evenly distributes the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally circulated forces of acceleration, cornering and braking ensures even wear across the tire's surface, preventing irregular tread wear formations. The tread design promotes a quiet drive as the tread design channels the airwaves through the tire's footprint, without letting them come into contact with the tread elements. This, along with the closed shoulder design, decreases the road noise heard during the drive. 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.
