The better traction ensures the models' forward motion at all times, greatly improving the different terrain traction at all times. The tread design also keeps the footprint clean as the wide grooves eliminate mud and snow stuck between the tread elements, further boosting the overall driving safety levels.The ideal footprint's constant field and road contact increases its controllability. The center ribs closely follow the road surface at all times, allowing the tire to improve the steering responsiveness and the driving stability at all times. In other words, the tire becomes quicker and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the tire. The shoulder's T-shaped block pattern enables the tire to optimize the cornering and maneuvering capability, by greatly enhancing the traction the tire has in such instances.The TF-8181 promotes exceptional damage resistance. The T-shaped shoulder blocks are reinforced in order to protect the tire from external damage. In other words, these tread elements guard the tire against punctures and cuts which may be caused by the crop stubble left behind on the fields.
