Armstrong Tru-Trac HT
OVERVIEW
The Armstrong Tru-Trac HT is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for SUVs. This model has touring passenger vehicle sizes as well. Armstrong offers a 65,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.
Armstrong offers one of the best warranties in the tire industry. The brand promotes a limited 6 year warranty covering manufacturing defects. They also provide a road hazard warranty and 24/7 roadside assistance for the first 2 years after the purchase is made.
The model’s maintained road contact upgrades its controllability. The symmetric ribbed tread design keeps the tire’s road contact at all times, which boosts steering responsiveness and driving stability. As a result, the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure, while the steering response time and accuracy are upgraded. The tread’s high number of lateral grooves improves the braking ability. They create friction at the moment of braking, which shortens the braking distance and guarantees a safer driving experience.
The tire promotes great all weather traction. The symmetric tread design and the all season tire compound boost the dry, wet, and winter weather road grip. The tread’s siping and lateral groove detail enhance the grip on the road surface, while the compound maintains the tire’s flexible traction throughout the year. The circumferential and lateral grooves eliminate water and slush from below the tire’s footprint, effectively resisting hydroplaning. In this manner, the tire ensures a secure year-round performance.
The tread’s optimally curved profile eases the driving pressure off its’ tread area, significantly reducing the model’s rolling resistance. This allows the tire to enhance its performance and fuel efficiency. The decreased rolling resistance successfully lowers the vehicle’s fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, guaranteeing a fuel-conscious performance. This also manages to slow the tread wear rate down and it ensures an even tread wear rate along the tread area. The slower even tread wear extends the tread life and the tire’s usability.
The Tru-Trac HT ensures a comfortable driving experience. The tread features special noise-blocking bars on the tire’s shoulders. They prevent airwaves from entering the tire’s footprint and coming into contact with the tread elements. In this manner, the road noise is not generated while the tires are in motion, guaranteeing an enjoyable and quiet driving experience.
Not all tire sizes are suitable for all vehicle types. Please refer to the item specifications for accurate information about vehicle type fitment for this particular size.
Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
