Mastercraft Courser AXT Tires | Smith Tire in Muskegon Heights, MI

AGGRESSIVE 5-RIB, ALL-TERRAIN TREAD DESIGN : With 12% more lateral grooves, the tread pattern of the Courser AXT was designed to tackle tough off-road terrains while providing superior on-road performance and handling.

WIDE, CENTER TREAD ELEMENTS : The wide, center tread elements have an open groove design for better off-road traction but are tied together with our ramp-lock feature that provides a stable feel on the highway, even under heavy loads.

VARIABLE FULL-DEPTH SIPING : The variable full-depth siping within the tread elements help maintain the wet traction capabilities of the tire as well as provide an attractive worn appearance throughout the life of the tire.

SILICA-INFUSED TREAD COMPOUND : The tread compound of the Courser AXT is infused with silica. The silica, in conjunction with the tread design features, improve the all-weather traction and overall treadwear.

PAIRED INTERMEDIATE TREAD ELEMENTS : The intermediate tread elements are tied together in pairs, with our ramp-lock design. This ramped feature helps reduce stone retention by pushing gravel towards the wide, circumferential grooves for easy release.

WIDE-ANGLE â€œSâ€ SHAPED SIPING : The wide angled siping forms a continuous â€œSâ€ shape to maximize the stability of each tread element. This gives the tire many sipe edges for wet and winter traction, without sacrificing the tireâ€™s handling characteristics.

WIDE, ZIG-ZAG CIRCUMFERENTIAL GROOVES : The wide, zig-zag shape of the circumferential grooves provides increased soft surface and snow traction.

OPTIMIZED PROFILE SHAPE : The tireâ€™s profile is designed to improve handling characteristics and promote even treadwear in highway applications.

OPTIMIZED TREAD PITCH : A combination of the engineered tread pattern and computer optimized pitch sequence minimizes the sound vibration to deliver a quiet ride.
