Hi-Run SU08. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Turf terrain performance; Enhanced controllability; Upgraded load durability; . OVERVIEW: The Hi-Run SU08 is an all season tire manufactured for lawn mowers and garden tractors.The tire offers great turf-terrain performance. The tire features a wider, ribbed footprint, guaranteeing a smoother drive. These tread elements are able to provide soft and loose terrain grip, optimizing its consistent forward motion on various terrain surfaces. In this manner, the tire is able to significantly enhance its overall driving safety levels. Better soft traction allows the tire to ease the driving pressure off the terrain, avoiding turf and grass field damage. This results in a turf-friendly drive, optimizing the tire's garden equipment applications.Its ribbed tread design also helps to effectively enhance the tire's overall controllability. This tread maintains consistent surface contact, boosting steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the tire during its performance. Its steering responses and accuracy are also optimized, significantly enhancing the tire's overall driving safety levels. This improves the handling and maneuvering, ensuring its safer performance.The SU08 upgrades its durability with the strengthened bias-ply structure. This construction allows the tire to maintain its ideal tire shape under load and driving pressure. As the structure does not deform under load pressure, it is able to effectively increase its overall load and driving durability.This is a bias ply tire. Due to the tire's internal construction and size, it is possible that the tire will look deformed. Smaller bias ply tires do not have reinforced constructions that can keep the tire from deforming. The bias construction and the small tire's non-reinforced internal structure allow the tire to fold in when it is deflated or not properly inflated. This is not constructional damage or an issue; it is a normal occurrence with such tires. In such cases, the tire needs to be mounted and inflated to the proper PSI or, in some instances, an inner tube needs to be added. The proper PSI and the inner tube are able to maintain the tire's ideal shape, preventing the bias plies from looking deformed. This ensures their performing safety and durability. The photo is a representation of the tire's possible deformation, it does not represent the specific tire model, size, tread pattern and application. This specific tire model features a BIASED ply construction. 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.
