Above all, Westlake AZ670 is an all new steer position commercial tire. It provides high performance in long haul services. This model meets the need of many drivers of 18 wheelers, buses, and box trucks.
Westlake tires come with a special compound depending on the tire's use. For long haul services the engineers use a fuel efficiency and wear resistant tread. Construction applications need robust and durable compounds that provide chip and cut resistance. For example, the Westlake AZ670 presents an advanced tread compound molded into an optimized tread pattern. This model presents wide shoulder blocks with special decoupling grooves that add more protection against lateral efforts for uniform wear and optimal pressure distribution. Continous center rib combined with special lateral ribs with open cross siping increase wet grip offering responsive handling. In addition, these elements ensure easy steering on the highway, but also in regional use.
The AZ670 stands out with a special rim cushion tread compound that increases heat accumulation resistance under heavy loads, as a result, it offers an extended lifespan for minimal costs per mile. Moreover, Westlake uses an innovative sidewall compound that ensures easy handling, minimal sidewall flex, and long lasting. This model presents four zigzag tread grooves that are designed to boost water and slush evacuation from under the tire when it comes to wet roads.
