Special mixed services require special tires. For this reason, Goodyear has developed a special arsenal of products called Armor Max. We want to present one of the most outstanding models with a 16" rim diameter, the G971 Armor Max. This one is a tough all position tire that handles tough jobs in extreme environments. It is present on the market in two important sizes: LT215/85R16, and LT235/85R16.
In the production of this model, engineers use a cut and chip resistant compound shaped into a 17/32" tread depth for LT215/85R16 and 18/32" for LT235/85R16. As a result, the tire ensures high resistance against on and off road hazards, thus increasing the tire lifespan. Open shoulder blocks with special sipes dig in mud and snow conditions. Hybrid center blocks create extra biting edges in both mud and snow.
In addition, two zigzag transversal grooves force efficient water, snow, and mud away for maximum traction performance in all weather. Inside the tread, there is a steel belted casing that adds toughness and durability. Therefore, it can handle with easy 3,042lbs on/off the highway. On the other hand, it ensures enough toughness for multiple recaps. In conclusion, G971 Armor Max is one of the leaders for many light trucks used in special road conditions. If you choose to buy this model, you never go wrong.
