Key Performance Features
- Enhanced Traction: Features an aggressive tread design and deep circumferential grooves to improve grip in soft terrain and optimize water evacuation for wet surface performance.
- Durability & Protection: Built with a four-belt design and a full-width elastic protector ply to resist shocks, bruising, and penetrations. Thicker rubber on the sidewalls and shoulders adds extra protection against scrubbing and impacts.
- Stability & Casing Life: Uses a rectangular bead bundle (a Michelin exclusive) that stabilizes the bead region to minimize fatigue and extend the tire’s casing life for future retreading.
- Flotation: The tread is nearly 1 inch wider than the previous Michelin XZY Wide Base, providing better flotation to prevent the vehicle from sinking in soft ground.
