Michelin XTE
This model is a robust trailer tire developed to show performance when it comes to the demands of high scrub and spread axle service offering uniform tread wear, more steering responsive, and mileage. It is designed especially for regional and line haul routes providing safety, extra mileage without compromising fuel efficiency.
The XTE model comes with an innovative tread compound into molded optimized tread pattern that presents a five-rib with a large contact patch for better pressure distribution and more stability on the road. One of the most highlighted innovations used by Michelin engineers is the three-steel belt casing design added to provide enhanced retreadability.
For safety reasons this model has four circumferential grooves designed to provide high aquaplaning resistance by better water and slush dispersion from under the tire footprint, improving excellent handling performance at the same time. This tire gained extra protection from impacts and curbing offered by special scallops and curb guard features. Due to the Rectangular Bead Bundle used by Michelin engineers, the tire stabilized the entire bead region and minimized fatigue to extend casing life.
Michelin XTE is available from 22.5 to 24.5-inch sizes backed by long-lasting treadwear being one of the best all-position/trailer tire options for a wide range of commercial vehicles used in freight transportation.
