Power King Straight Rib 61A3 4 Ply AS A/S All Season Tire

Power King Straight Rib. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Upgraded traction; Turf friendly performance; Enhanced controllability; . OVERVIEW: The Power King Straight Rib is an all season tire manufactured for lawn mowers and garden tractors.The tire improves the versatile terrain traction, by optimizing the grassy and turf surface performance. These tread elements allow the tire to upgrade the soft and loose terrain traction. The tread design boosts the forward motion at all times, enhancing the versatile terrain performing capability. The all season compound and the groove pattern also manage to improve the dry, wet and winter weather traction. They upgrade the year round traction, while the grooves disperse water and slush from the footprint in wet weather conditions.The ribbed tread design and the soft traction work together to ensure a field friendly performance. This combination utilizes the tire's footprint in order to ease the driving pressure off the tire, minimizing the pressure affecting the tire. As this allows the tire to upgrade the turf friendly performance, by effectively preventing grass and turf damage caused by the tire's stronger traction.The Straight Rib upgrades the controllability as well. The solid ribbed tread design maintains the surface contact while the tires are in motion, increasing the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In other words, the tire is quicker and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the tire. As a result, the tire enhances the driver's better control over the vehicle at all times.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.
