Armstrong ASH+ is a premium steer position tire built specially for long haul use. This model provides great performance when it comes to handling, uniform wear, and grip.
Above all, the ASH+ comes with an EPA SmartWay tread compound molded into a directional tread pattern. In addition, it presents five ribs among which slick shoulders improve road grip, pressure distribution and road stability at the same time.
