Landgolden LGT97. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All terrain traction; All weather grip; Enhanced durability; Increased controllability; Longer-lasting tread life; . OVERVIEW: The Landgolden LGT97 is a rugged terrain, all weather tire manufactured for light trucks. Landgolden offers a 65,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.The aggressive tread pattern and the strong rubber compound improve rugged terrain traction. The tread can easily maintain forward motion, thanks to the large tread elements and their strong grip. This tread can easily handle hard, rocky, and uneven terrains. This tread design also prevents stone retention from harming the tire's casing. These optimized tread elements also maintain a clean footprint during the performance, which enables the tire to have better contact with the driving surface. It also helps combat stone retention.Maintaining the surface contact enables controllability in different terrains. The tread's footprint keeps the tire's terrain surface contact, which enhances steering responsiveness and driving stability. In this manner, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while it stabilizes the structure against the driving pressure affecting the model during the drive. These elements guarantee a safe driving experience.Better load durability and excellent damage resistance are guaranteed. The strengthened steel belt structure and the compound achieve this. As the tire does not deform under load and driving pressure, it is able to securely carry and withstand larger loads. This enhances the tire's load durability. On the other hand, the construction withstands impact damage and other external forces that may shorten the tire's service life. The compound actively resists the tread's chipping, cracking, and tearing.The tire promotes a safe year-round performance. The tread pattern and the durable compound increase the tire's grip in dry, wet, and winter weather. This allows the tire to securely perform throughout the year. The compound maintains rubber flexibility even in hot summer or freezing winter weather conditions. The wide grooves disperse water and slush from below the tire's footprint and avoid hydroplaning in wet and winter weather. This ensures great year-round driving safety.The model boosts its service life and usability. The tread design and the rubber compound ensure slower and even treadwear. The optimal tread design enables the model to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally spread-out forces of acceleration, cornering, and braking avoid irregular wear formations across the tread area, while the compound boosts the rubber flexibility throughout the drive. In this manner, the tire ensures a lengthened service life.All weather tires receive the three mountain peak and snowflake (3PMS) symbol for their exceptional winter weather performance. They are all season tires with extra winter weather grip, in order to guarantee safer year-round durability. This ensures their true and secure driving ability throughout the year.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.
