Hankook Smart Flex DH35 is an advanced drive tire developed for drivers of box trucks, P&D vehicles, and special light trucks. It comes in the next sizes: 225/70R19.5, 245/70R19.5, and 265/70R19.5 with 14 or 16-ply ratings. As a result, it meets all tastes and budgets, thus covering a large part of commercial trucks.
Hankook Smart Flex DH35 presents an advanced tread compound optimized for regional applications formed into a five rib tread pattern. Engineers use a rib type tread pattern and multi 3-Dimensional Sipes for multiple reasons. Firstly, they use this type of pattern to lower rolling resistance, but also to provide excellent traction performance in serious all season applications. Open and angled shoulder blocks with special diagonal sipe on each block enhance road adherence for maximum contact with the road.
Secondly, it has four wavy and deep grooves with semi zigzag design. These provide outstanding traction and excellent water, snow, and stone evacuation on long and regional haul. In addition, multi 3D sipes increase traction ability and road grip for controlled and stable driving performance. While a rib pattern adds extra stiffness for great fuel savings. Compared with its predecessor, the new DH35 shows improved performance when it comes to snow acceleration, retreadability, durability, mileage, and fuel usage. Best of all, due to the aggressive tread design, this model shows high performance regardless of road and weather conditions even in 3PMSF.
