RoadMaster RM257 Features and Benefits
- 3D siping design
- Special curb bar for protection
- Stone ejector platforms
- N speed rating for fast transportation at up to 87 mph
- Tightly packed center tread blocks
- High tensile strength belt construction
Primarily, the RoadMaster RM257 comes with an aggressive tread pattern designed to maximize traction and gripping power. The increased number of blocks creates numerous biting edges that boost grip on dry and wet roads. Moreover, the center lugs grant stability on bumpy sections and winding roads. Moving on, the open shoulder design adds extra lateral traction, which improves performance during tight turns. Equally important, the shoulder blocks and grooves boost the self cleaning ability while fighting off heat buildup. The optimized 3D siping ensures superior grip all year round by adding more biting points, especially on slippery surfaces. Thanks to its deep grooves, the tire provides better performance in wet conditions. The channels throw water and snow away from the footprint to reduce the chances of aquaplaning or slipping.
Secondly, the special stone ejectors at the base of the grooves prevent rock drilling, thus protecting the casing. The RoadMaster RM257 features an innovative curb bar design that protects the sidewall from lateral damage. In addition, the sidewalls upgrade the load capacity, allowing the tire to carry heavier weights. With a high tensile strength belt structure, this model is durable against deep cuts and punctures. This feature promotes more retread cycles, making it a worthy investment. The new rubber compound withstands wear and tear while lowering the rolling resistance. At last, this model is available on the market in popular sizes with a rim diameter of 19.5".
