“What is unique with the new tyres is the new pattern design, with higher lugs and a new high-performance tread compound. The tyre also has a tubeless construction”, explained Fredrik Lundén”, Director of sales at Väderstad.
“The new pattern gives the tyre better self-cleaning capacity and has a lower impact on the structure of the surface soil. The high-performance tread compound together with the new pattern gives better durability”, said Fredrik Lundén.
