Maxxis 4x4 line-up has a tyre for all seasons

Wednesday, July 22, 2009

With specialist mud terrain products lining up alongside extreme off road tyres and the biggest complete range to fit Land Rover 16 inch rims, Maxxis prides itself on offering 4x4 tyre for all seasons and applications in what is one of the biggest and most comprehensive ranges of off-road, on/off-road and road going 4x4 tyres available in the UK.

Maxxis 4x4 tyres are engineered using Virtual Intelligent Prototyping (VIP) technology to deliver superior grip and handling stability in all weathers and are robust and reliable. They also come with the Maxxis Lifetime Guarantee, which gives motorists added peace of mind because it means Maxxis will replace a tyre which either demonstrates a defect due to the manufacturing process or materials used or shows irreparable damage resulting from normal road use.

The Buckshot Mudder (MT-754) is a radial mud terrain tyre designed for year-round driving both on- and off-road and is renowned for its durability and uniformity. Its double steel-belted construction and jointless spiral-wrapped full nylon cap aid strength and stability, while an aggressive tread pattern, rugged sidewall and self-cleaning lugs ensure maximum grip. The premium rubber compound with tread siping improves control in a variety of weather conditions and the extra-strong durable casing helps combat punctures and abrasions. The tyre is pinned for studs and comes in a range of sizes from 27/80 14 to 315/75 16.
An extreme off-road tyre featuring an aggressive directional tread design and multi-stage staggered shoulder lugs, the Trepador radial (M-8060) delivers assured handling in both wet and dry conditions and improved traction on uneven terrain. Once again, double steel-belted construction and a jointless spiral-wrapped full nylon cap enhance durability, improve puncture resistance and prolong tread life. Multi-curve tread siping enhances traction on loose dirt as well as braking and driving performance. The Trepador is available in sizes from 205 R16C to 40x13.50 R18LT, and the range includes bias-belted tyres designed specifically for use in off-road competitions.
The Creepy Crawler (M-8090) is another extreme off-road tyre and delivers lasting performance plus grip, controlled traction and steering on all surfaces. Available in various widths up to 40x13.5 to fit 15-17 inch rims, it features a unique multi-edged knob design and special sipe arrangement which combine to deliver superb grip on rocky terrain. The armoured, square profile sidewall and innovative tread pattern provide uniform contact, while large shoulder lugs improve traction in mud and snow.
A specialist mud radial, the MT-753 Bravo has an extra large and deep tread for excellent traction both on- and off-road and a zigzag groove for greater off-road durability. Double steel-belt construction prolongs tyre life and uniformity and the jointless spiral-wrapped full nylon cap increases strength and stability. Open shoulder lugs give the tyre an exceptional self-cleaning capability and thanks to a tough polyester casing it offers maximum puncture resistance and stability on rock and road.
The Bighorn (MT-762) is a radial tyre that delivers outstanding handling on all hard terrain plus superior traction in muddy conditions. Staggered shoulder lugs provide extra grip and the deep tread blocks not only ensure the tyre is self-cleaning but also boost performance and stability. Puncture resistance is a key feature of the Bighorn, which is pinned for studs and comes in a range of sizes from 30x9.50 R15LT to LT275/65 R18.
With an innovative unidirectional tread pattern for precise cornering and handling stability in all weathers plus an open shoulder design that improves water dispersal, the MA-S2 stands out as a premium all-weather road-going 4x4 tyre. Its unique structure includes two polyester body plies for a smooth and comfortable ride plus a jointless spiral-wrapped full nylon cap for extra durability. It is available in a wide range of sizes from 215/70 16 to 275/40 20 and incorporates a specially designed rim protector to combat punctures and abrasion.
The Maxxis MA-S1 is available in a wide range of sizes from 235/60 14 to 285/50 18 and is designed for optimum performance on SUVs and sport trucks. It delivers superior traction and control on wet roads and snow thanks to its unidirectional tread design. Two polyester body plies ensure a smooth and relaxing ride, while the tyre’s inherent strength and uniformity are due to its double steel-belted construction and the jointless spiral-wrapped full nylon cap.
