Transeagle TE500. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All terrain traction; Upgraded driving durability; All season performance; Improved controllability; . OVERVIEW: The Transeagle TE500 is an all terrain, all season tire made for ATVs and UTVs.Excellent all terrain traction is prompted with this tire. The optimized footprint manages to promote better all terrain traction, upgrading its soft, loose, and uneven terrain grip. This guarantees the tire's consistent forward motion, even through deep mud and on soft dirt terrains. On the other hand, the self-cleaning tread design effectively eliminates mud, snow, and rocks stuck between the tread elements. Mud and snow do not block the surface contact and stone retention is also avoided in this manner.The all season performance is ensured with the ideal tread design and the all season compound. This exceptional performance is guaranteed with the combination of the tread design and the all season compound. Dry, wet, and winter grip is ensured. The sipes along the tread generate biting edges, which boost traction. On the other hand, the compound keeps the tire pliable in various temperatures. Grooves prevent hydroplaning as they help guide water and slush through the footprint, further increasing the tire's wet grip.The tire offers great controllability on various surfaces. The tread design effectively increases its consistent surface contact, boosting steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, the tire manages to provide quick and precise steering responses to the driver's commands. It also increases structural stability by strengthening the construction. The shoulder blocks provide biting edges, which enhance its cornering and maneuvering. The result is a secure driving experience.The Transeagle TE500 ensures great damage resistance with this tread design and the internal structure. The strengthened sidewall protects the tire from punctures, cuts, and tears during the off-road performance. The puncture-resistant compound enhances the tire's service life and usability by avoiding tread damage.This specific tire model features a BIASED ply construction.When it comes to ATV tires, there might be slight visual differences between brands and models even if the tires are of the same size.NOT FOR HIGHWAY USE: This tire model is not DOT-approved for highway use.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.
