Mastercraft AST Tires
The Mastercraft AST is a touring, all season tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs.
The optimal tread design enables the tire to offer excellent driving comfort levels. The tread’s close and constant surface contact allows the tire to absorb the shock of driving. As a result, the tire greatly lowers the road vibrations felt in the vehicle’s cabin. This guarantees a comfortable driving experience as they prevent road disturbances from ruining the passengers’ driving enjoyment.
The tire improves the all weather traction. The tread design and the all season compound work together to boost the dry, wet, and winter weather grip on the road surface. In other words, the tire guarantees better traction by firmly gripping the road surface with the tread elements, while securing the compound materials’ tread flexing in various temperatures. The wider circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from the footprint, effectively boosting the wet weather performance.
The center’s continuous grooves keep the surface contact while the tires are in motion, which upgrades the controllability. Better road contact improves the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. The tire offers a faster and more accurate steering response to the driver’s commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the model. The shoulder tread blocks upgrade the cornering ability with the use of extra biting edges. This promotes a safer cornering and maneuvering power, optimizing the handling throughout the drive.
The Mastercraft AST also increases the usability. The symmetric tread design increases the tread life. The equally spread out forces of acceleration, cornering, and braking prevent premature and irregular wear formations across the tread area. This combination ensures even wear across the tread area, boosting the tread and service life.
Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
