Crossmax AT-1. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All terrain traction; Enhanced controllability; Year-round performance; Upgraded load durability; Comfortable ride; . OVERVIEW: The Crossmax AT-1 is an all terrain, all season tire made for light trucks and SUVs. Crossmax offers a 50,000 treadwear warranty with this model.Maintaining road contact with the ideal tread design helps to increase the tires controllability. The aggressive tread pattern maintains constant surface contact during the performance. It increases the tires steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, the steering response time becomes quicker and more accurate to the drivers commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. Cornering is upgraded as well, thanks to the wide shoulder blocks and their constant surface contact. As a result, the driver has full control over the vehicle, offering a safe drive.The tire utilizes its structure and tread design to increase load capacity and prevent damage. The steel belt structure maintains the ideal tire shape under the load pressure affecting the model. The strengthened structure prevents the tire from deforming during its performance, enabling it to upgrade the load-carrying capacity. The structure also helps prevent external damage. This avoids cuts, punctures, and impact damage, which may shorten the tires service life. Also, the ideal tread design and its self-cleaning nature eject rocks stuck between the tread elements, before they can drill into the tread and damage the tires casing. This ensures a safe off-road performance.The model promotes great all weather traction. The ideal tread design, with the detailed siping pattern, and the all season compound work together to upgrade the dry, wet, and winter-weather performance. The durable compound elements and the detailed siping placement increase the tires surface traction to ensure a safe year-round drive. The compound elements optimize the rubbers flexibility throughout the year, in various temperatures. The tread designs siping placement increases the number of biting edges that grip the road, which boosts the surface traction. The treads ideal groove placement avoids hydroplaning.The treads siping and groove placement manage to reduce road noise levels heard in the vehicles cabin. These tread elements channel airwaves through the tires footprint, without allowing them to come into contact with the tread elements. As a result, the road and tread pattern noise are not generated and they dont reach the vehicles cabin during the tires performance. This results in a comfortable and quiet driving experience.The Crossmax AT-1 manages to increase its all terrain performance. The aggressive tread design and the durable rubber compound ensure great on-road and soft, loose, and uneven terrain grip. The optimized tread design ensures additional sideway biting edges, increasing its deep mud and loose dirt performance. Additionally, the tread design features mud and stone ejectors that keep the footprint clean. Mud and snow do not block surface contact, while stone retention is effectively prevented.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.
