Maxxis MU511. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Rugged terrain traction; Better damage resistance; Improved controllability; All season performance; . OVERVIEW: The Maxxis MU511 is a rugged terrain, all season tire made for ATVs and UTVs.Improved controllability and driving stability are enhanced with this tire. The tread design manages to maintain surface contact throughout the drive. In this manner, the tire greatly improves controllability, by boosting steering responsiveness and driving stability. This allows the tire to be quicker and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the tire during the performance. The better handling guarantees the driver's control over the vehicle.Better dry, wet, and winter grip is guaranteed with this model. Year-round traction and hydroplaning resistance are offered. Durable rubber materials keep the tire pliable in changing temperatures, by using weather-resistant rubber. On the other hand, the ideal tread pattern generates biting edges that firmly grip the road surface with extra biting edges. Hydroplaning is avoided thanks to the groove pattern. These grooves prevent water and slush from cutting off the tire's road contact in wet conditions.The tire promotes exceptional rugged terrain performance. The aggressive tread design utilizes staggered blocks and a high void ratio to enhance soft, loose, and uneven terrain grip. These elements ensure the tire's consistent forward motion at all times. Deep mud and loose dirt terrain grip are guaranteed in this manner. This pattern also helps to enhance its self-cleaning capability. Mud and snow do not block surface contact, further optimizing its optimal off-road performance.The Maxxis MU511 promotes great damage resistance. The tire helps to protect its tread area and casing throughout the drive. The compound blend and the stronger structure increase the tire's usability by combating irregular and premature wear. They protect the tire to effectively increase its overall service life.This specific tire model features a BIASED ply construction.When it comes to ATV tires, there might be slight visual differences between brands and models even if the tires are of the same size.NOT FOR HIGHWAY USE: This tire model is not DOT-approved for highway use.Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years.
