Mastercraft Avenger M8. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; High speed controllability; Comfortable driving experience; . OVERVIEW: The Mastercraft Avenger M8 is a performance and high performance, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.The tire promotes great all weather traction. The all season tire compound and the asymmetric tread design work together to boost the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The compound keeps its flexibility in all weather, including in colder temperatures. The tread elements, with the optimal siping detail, manage to find firm grip on the road surface throughout the year. The tread's wide circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The enhanced hydroplaning resistance and all weather traction ensure a safer year round performance.The tread design features a dual center rib that maintains the tire's road contact at all times. This improves the high speed steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, it boosts the steering response time and accuracy and it stabilizes the structure against the driving pressure affecting it. Furthermore, the maintained road contact and the optimal tire shape evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. As a result, the tire's shape does not deform under the high speed driving pressure affecting it, which enables the tire's exceptional high speed performing capability.The Avenger M8 provides a comfortable drive. The tread design's solid shoulder rib closed the shoulder area, preventing the airwaves from entering the tire's footprint and coming into contact with the tread elements. The special elastic bead sidewall construction dampens the tire's road contact and absorbs the shock of driving. This decreases the road vibrations felt while the tires are in motion. The lowered road noise and vibration levels guarantee a quiet and enjoyable driving experience. 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.
