Mastercraft Glacier Trex Tires
The Mastercraft Glacier Trex is a touring, winter tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs.
The directional tread pattern with the detailed siping placement and the winter compound work together to greatly update the tire’s winter weather performing capability. The high-density siping placement along the tread area firmly grips the ice- and snow-covered road surfaces, while the compound optimizes the rubber flexibility in freezing and cold weather conditions. The Snow Groove II packs snow into the grooves in order to boost the snow-on-snow contact and upgrade the ice traction. The groove placement allows the tire to avoid hydroplaning. They channel water and slush from the footprint to keep the road contact during the drive. The tread is pinned for studs, which can be added for additional ice and snow traction.
The tread design also boosts the controllability significantly. The constant surface contact of the continuous center rib enhances the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In this manner, the model is quicker and more precise in its response to the driver’s commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting it. The directional pattern’s surface grip upgrades the braking power. They generate friction between the tire and the road surface and allow the tire to shorten the braking distance, even when driving on ice- and snow-covered road surface conditions. This combination greatly enhances the driver’s control over the vehicle in winter weather conditions.
The Mastercraft Glacier Trex utilizes the tread pattern to ensure high driving comfort levels throughout its performance. The directional pattern’s groove placement channels airwaves through the footprint. As the airwaves cannot come into contact with the tread elements, the tire is able to minimize the road and tread pattern noise heard in the vehicle’s cabin. This actively prevents the formation of soundwaves, resulting in a quiet and comfortable driving experience.
