Aspen Touring A/S. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All season traction; Enhanced controllability; Longer-lasting tread life; High driving comfort levels; . OVERVIEW: The Aspen Touring A/S is a touring, all season tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. Aspen offers a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.This model utilizes the ideal tread design and the all season compound, in order to improve its dry, wet, and winter weather performance. The optimized tread elements generate additional biting edges, ensuring its consistent forward motion. All season compound elements keep the tire pliable throughout the year, enabling its summer and winter applications. The circumferential and angled lateral grooves channel water and slush through the footprint, combating hydroplaning.The tread design's consistent surface contact also upgrades its controllability. As a result, the tire is able to effectively upgrade steering responsiveness and driving stability. This allows the tire to upgrade steering responses and accuracy, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. The shoulder block pattern provides additional biting edges, upgrading cornering. The angled grooves create friction when braking, significantly shortening its overall braking distance.High driving comfort levels are ensured with the footprint. These tread elements and their consistent surface contact effectively lowers road noise and vibrations. In this manner, the tread design does not allow road disturbances from reaching the vehicle's cabin. This allows the tire to effectively increase the passengers' driving enjoyment.The Aspen Touring A/S boosts its usability. The stable footprint and the durable compound enable the tire to increase its service life. They effectively prevent irregular and premature wear along the footprint. This combination enables the tire's exceptional tread life.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.
