The RoadOne AS500 is a versatile tire that goes on passenger light trucks and SUVs. It can be used all year round, meaning that you don't need to change it.
Firstly, the M+S design is crucial for handling different weather conditions. All season tires have wider grooves and deeper channels than regular summer tires. This pattern helps the model grip loose surfaces like mud, slush, and snow by creating more friction between the RoadOne AS500 and the ground. In rain, these channels help direct water away from the mode, reducing the risk of hydroplaning. Moving on, the open shoulders help with handling, especially in curves and turns. The grooves along the edges allow the RoadOne AS500 to manage the forces put on it when turning, which can make the car feel more balanced and easier to steer. And, there are also strong sidewalls that withstand heavy loads without any problems at high speeds. They protect the sides from scrubbing too.
Secondly, the resistant rubber compound balances durability and flexibility. This durable compound helps the RoadOne AS500 last longer, even on rough surfaces and in changing temperatures. Since the compound has to resist wear in warm conditions and still work well in cold weather, it’s carefully engineered to provide reliable performance across different seasons without losing traction. Equally important, the special sipe placement reduces road noise, making the ride quieter and more comfortable. Sipes absorb some of the vibrations from rough roads, making the drive smoother. Finally, the available sizes on the US market come in rim diameter options ranging between 15" and 20".
