The BFGoodrich company, producer of premium-class tires, officially presented Mud Terrain T/A KM2 tire on the British market.
The new tire is intended for “serious off-road adherents” and belongs to the specialized segment of the tires suited for deep mud. The company’s announcement says that the tire will operate in off-the-road conditions 80% of its service life. Mud Terrain T/A KM2 replaces the previous model Mud Terrain T/A that has become a real veteran of tire tests and received a lot high appraisals. Now the tire is offered in 15 – 17 inch sizes. The range of the sizes will be extended in 2010.
According to Steve Dolby, head of the marketing department of BFGoodrich, drag force in deep mud, steering on wet surface, braking on dry surface and traction on snow-covered surface of the new tire are by 5% better than those of the previous model. Besides this the sidewalls were reinforced, and drag force on stony surface was improved by 10%. Mr. Dolby also notes that the tire is manufactured with the use of the technologies borrowed from sporty BFGoodrich Krawler KX TEK tire. Thanks to the application of these technologies the tire got more solid sidewalls and aggressive lugs that improved the tire’s performance in severe off-the-road conditions.
The technologies borrowed from Krawler TEK allow to increase the solidity of sidewalls by 33% (if to compare with the previous model) and ensure additional carcass safety. TriGard carcass makes the tire one of the best in the extreme off-road segment. The increased durability makes the driving more confident. One of the basic elements is reinforced cord of the tire’s bead.
