BKT Mine Star . FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Enhanced controllability; Improved load durability; Longer-lasting tread life; . OVERVIEW: The BKT Mine Star is an all season tire made for industrial vehicles.The tire promotes great traction on all terrain surfaces. The tread design and the compound upgrade the grip on soft, loose, uneven terrains. The model's optimal footprint and consistent surface contact improve its controllability as well. The tread pattern closely follows the surface, in order to increase the model's steering responsiveness and driving stability. The better surface contact allows the tire to boost the steering response time and accuracy to the driver's instructions while enhancing the structure stability.The tread design and the durable compound guarantee longer-lasting tread life. The tread design keeps consistent road contact and evenly distributes driving pressure along the tread, while the compound slows the treadwear rate. These elements prevent irregular and premature wear formations along the tread. The durable compound also protects the tire against punctures, cuts, and tearing. This significantly improves the tire's service life and usability.The BKT Mine Star provides exceptional durability. The reinforced internal structure manages to keep the tire's ideal shape under load and driving pressure. This results in the tire's better capability to easily carry and withstand heavy loads. The strengthened structure and durable compound prevent the deformation of the tire, providing great load and driving capacity. This specific tire model features a BIASED ply construction. There might be discrepancies of sizes between brands and models of tires which have this size formatting. As the manufacturers only provide the tire width and the rim diameter with these tires, various brands and models will have size differences. In order to ensure the correct size is purchased, the overall tire diameter that is needed should be checked. This is a Tubed Type Tire (TT), which requires an inner tube to properly function. This purchase does not include the inner tube or flaps. The Overall Diameter or O.D. advertised represents the tire's overall diameter in inches, once the tire has been properly inflated and mounted per the manufacturer's recommendation. This advertised number is provided to Priority Tire by the tire manufacturer. 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.
