Cosmo Stray Kat. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All season road grip; Hydroplaning protection; Increased durability; Prolonged tread life; Enhanced handling; Reduced fuel consumption; Improved towing stability; . OVERVIEW: The Cosmo Stray Kat is a highway terrain, 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 model features a ribbed design. It provides exceptional grip on dry, wet, and snowy roads. The wet grip is further boosted with the use of directed super silica, along with the specific groove design. The circumferential grooves drain slush and water from under the footprint, increasing traction and averting hydroplaning. The sipe arrangement across the tread gives extra biting edges, for safer and secure light snow traction. The ribbed design ensures maximum road contact, enhancing dry grip. In addition, the compound adapts the tire to different temperatures, preserving its flexibility and keeping it operational in all seasons.The model is built to be durable. It sports a stronger construction, making the tire sturdier and allowing it to withstand heavy loads and cargo, without deformation. The inner reinforcement helps the model evenly spread out the pressure across its circumference, preventing pressure accumulation on sensitive tread areas. The tread design also helps with equal pressure distribution with its ribbed design that ensures consistent road contact. The stiffer sidewalls also avert flexing, while also adding to the overall stability.The tire sports an elongated tread life. The deeper starting tread offers more rubber to wear out during the model's performance. Moreover, the silica compound enhances the tire's resistance to heat build-up and prevents the rubber from rotting in wet conditions. It also strengthens the compound, providing increased protection against accelerated wear. Furthermore, the optimal pressure distribution of the tire helps maintain its shape. This improves traction and assures even tread wear during the drive. As a result, the model's service life is vastly extended.The specific tread pattern enhances handling. The five-rib design makes continual road contact while performing on the highway. This enhances the steering response and precision to the driver's demands. It also helps with towing stability. These elements ensure that the trailer accurately follows the instructions of the towing vehicle.The model features a unique tread design consisting of five ribs, offering a strong grip. The ribs are also optimized to provide low rolling resistance. They ensure even pressure circulation while also preventing tread flexing throughout the drive, with the help of the stronger construction and the stiff sidewalls. As such, pressure doesn't accumulate along the tread area, resulting in decreased rolling resistance. This is further reduced with the heat-resistant silica compound, minimizing CO2 emissions and the vehicle's fuel consumption.The Cosmo Stray Kat guarantees excellent towing stability. The stronger construction and the stiffer sidewalls avert deformation during the highway performance, boosting towing stability. The optimal pressure spread out works with the ribbed design, in order to keep the tire's best shape. This delivers constant road traction, which is further increased with many biting edges, improving the towing response. These features stop the trailer from swaying on the road and reduces the possibility of the trailer tipping over.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.
