The Lancaster DR270 Drive Sld Shldr is a highway terrain, all season tire. It goes on commercial trucks, and it is designed for the vehicle's drive axle. Its overall chunky design and strong materials allow it to manage well through different seasons and enable great overall performance in regional and long haul operations.
Firstly, the lugged tread design is great for traction on the road. It is durable in tough conditions and can handle them without wearing out too fast. This means that the Lancaster DR270 Drive Sld Shldr can last longer. Adding to this, the sipes offer great grip, improving traction and performance. Furthermore, the open shoulders handle soft ground very well. On soft surfaces, they can dig in with low effort, giving the truck more power and preventing it from getting stuck easily. And, because there's more space open for the air, the tires can cool off faster.
Secondly, the strong sidewalls withstand a maximum of 7,160 lbs per single tire, depending on the size. They protect the lateral part from scrubbing too. Equally important, the grooves squeeze out water, mud, and snow so the Lancaster DR270 Drive Sld Shldr can touch the road better, reducing the risk of sliding. Adding to this, the resistant rubber compound minimizes damage from cuts and punctures. This way, there is a lower risk of having a flat tire. And, the wide base reduces fuel usage and lowers the rolling resistance. Finally, the available sizes on the US market come in both 22.5'' and 24.5'' rim diameter options.
