Sumitomo showed us again that they can't go wrong on their commercial tires. For example, their new ST909 is an advanced S-Tech Design model used on the drive axle of trucks in regional applications. It uses the latest tech to deliver superior traction power, increased mileage, and vehicle stability. Excellent performance combined with high integrity is this tire's strongest point.
The premium engineering of the ST909 makes it durable enough to easily carry loads up to 7,830 lbs per wheel. A much wider tread face promotes more retread cycles by evenly applying pressure on the rubber. The solid shoulder design combats lateral forces to deliver the best cornering ability for safe driving. Innovative Y-shape grooves are efficient at throwing water away for superior traction during rain. With a tread depth of up to 28/32", this model will carry any regional vehicle through the worst terrains while minimizing damage. Moreover, stone ejectors at the base of the channels make sure no objects remain stuck, thus allowing for a safe and stable ride.
In addition, the internal build of the ST909 offers high protection against punctures so the wheel stays intact and stable. The optimal features along with quality manufacturing make this tire incredibly resistant to irregular wear. Besides that, the best fuel efficiency at speeds up to 87 mph is guaranteed due to the cutting edge technology of this model.
Above that, Sumitomo backs their clients with a 6 year or 2 recap casing warranty for a calm experience. This tire is available on the US market in many popular sizes, some of them being: 11R22.5 and 295/75 R22.5.
