AltiMAX Arctic
radials are General Tire's Studdable Winter tires developed
for the drivers of sport cars, coupes, sedans, vans and
crossover vehicles that desire to use traditional methods of
enhancing wintertime traction. AltiMAX Arctic radials are
designed to offer high levels of traction at low
temperatures.
AltiMAX Arctic radials use General Tire's All-WeatherDual
Tread compound to enhance cold weather flexibility and wet
traction. The compound is molded into a tread design with a
Center Stability Rib and directional pattern to combine
straight-line stability on dry roads with water evacuation
and hydroplaning resistance on wet and slush-covered roads.
The AltiMAX Arctic radial's 270-degrees of high-density
siping across the face of the tire enhances snow traction
when accelerating, cornering or braking. Alternating rows of
metal studs can be added in the shoulder and intermediate
tread blocks to increase traction on hard packed snow and
icy roads. The tire's internal structure includes twin steel
belts on top of a polyester carcass featuring General Tire's
Reactive Contour Technology to react to different road
conditions and maintain better contact with the road
surface.
General AltiMAX Arctic tires meet the industry's severe snow
service requirements and are branded with the
mountain/snowflake symbol. |
