Recessed biting edges in shoulder tread blocks yield 
more traction for greater grip, especially in corners and 
ruts, throughout a wide range of terrain conditions.

Chiseled shoulder block shape improves side traction 
and makes traversing ruts easier. This tapered shape 
facilitates knob penetration through soft surfaces, 
whereas a flat knob would ”float” and/or be deflected. 
Instead, the tapered knob penetrates into the firmer 
underlying ground to give the tire more bite for more 
traction.

Tie-bar design connects and reinforces the tread blocks 
for greater tread stiffness, yielding improved 
intermediate-to-hard terrain performance.

Recess design in the area between tread blocks gives 
the tire improved compliance for enhanced ride comfort.
Enhanced land/sea ratio and wider tread profile for 
improved traction.

Larger-radius tread block base for strength and 
increased durability.
