Contender ST Radial. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Trailer tire model; Enhanced controllability; Better load durability; Longer lasting tread life; . OVERVIEW: The Contender ST Radial is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for trailers. This tire is NOT MEANT TO BE MOUNTED ON LIGHT TRUCKS, as its construction will not support the weight and performing style of such vehicles. It can ONLY BE MOUNTED ON TRAILERS.The tire greatly improves the year round performing ability. The all season compound works together with the detailed, ribbed tread design in order to optimize the summer and winter traction. The tread elements with the siping and notch placement increase the grip on the road surface throughout the year. The compound elements maintain their flexibility thanks to the stronger rubber materials used during the tires manufacturing. The tread designs groove pattern avoids hydroplaning and prevents water and slush from cutting off the tires surface contact.A better controllability is guaranteed with the symmetric ribbed tread design. The flat footprint with the three continuous center ribs ensure the surface contact while the tires are in motion. In this manner, the tire upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. As a result, the tire increases the steering response time and accuracy to the drivers commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the tire. The shoulder block pattern helps to improve the cornering and maneuvering capability, while the tires are in motion.The reinforced internal structure keeps the ideal tire shape under the load and driving pressure. The construction features a reinforced double steel belt and polyester cord structure which maintains the ideal tire shape under the pressure. As the tire does not deform, it is able to actively handle and carry heavy loads with ease. This results in the tires better load capacity, ensuring its secure heavy-duty application at all times.The Contender ST Radial increases the length of the tread life. Tread separation is avoided. The nylon tread-firming belt overlay protects the tread area and effectively prevents tread separation. On the other hand, the tread bar pattern ensures even pressure circulation across the tread area. This effectively avoids irregular and premature wear formations. The combination of these enhancements greatly boosts the tires overall service life. There might be discrepancies of sizes between brands and models of tires which have this size formatting. As the manufacturers only provide the tire width and the rim diameter with these tires, various brands and models will have size differences. In order to ensure the correct size is purchased, the overall tire diameter that is needed should be checked.The Overall Diameter or O.D. advertized represents the tire's overall diameter in inches, once the tire has been properly inflated and mounted per the manufacturer's recommendation. This advertised number is provided to Priority Tire by the tire manufacturer.Below is a list of some popular vehicles that 145R12 tires may fit depending on Year & Option. However the list does not cover all vehicle's that these tires can fit: Ford Festiva GL; Ford Festiva L; Ford Festiva LX; Pontiac Firefly; Pontiac Firefly LE; Subaru Justy; Subaru Justy DL; Subaru Justy GL;
