Carlisle Tru Power 18X8.50-10 74A2 4 Ply AS A/S All Season Tire 5233111 (Carlstar)

Carlisle Tru Power. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Self-cleaning tread; Enhanced durability; . OVERVIEW: The Carlisle Tru Power is an all terrain, all season tire manufactured for lawn mowers and garden tractors.The tire promotes great all terrain traction. The V-shaped tread lugs increase the soft, loose and uneven terrain traction. They find firm grip both on and off-road. The tread pattern enables the tire to safely and comfortably perform on all such road conditions. The tread elements maintain a clean footprint at all times. The high void ratio and the lug pattern prevent mud and snow from packing in between the tread elements, while at the same time, they resist stone retention from harming the tire's casing. The result is a secure performance in all conditions.The Tru Power's special rim guards and the reinforced bead structure prevent off-road damage from harming the casing. They resist punctures, cuts, tears, chipping and all other damage that may shorten the tire's usability. The prevention of punctures allows the tire to spend more time in use. The tire's strengthened shoulder construction increases the model's durability. They maintain the model's optimal shape and avoid deformation during the drive. They also manage to increase the tire's heavy load capability with their optimized shape.This is a bias ply tire. Due to the tire's internal construction and size, it is possible that the tire will look deformed. Smaller bias ply tires do not have reinforced constructions that can keep the tire from deforming. The bias construction and the small tire's non-reinforced internal structure allow the tire to fold in when it is deflated or not properly inflated. This is not constructional damage or an issue; it is a normal occurrence with such tires. In such cases, the tire needs to be mounted and inflated to the proper PSI or, in some instances, an inner tube needs to be added. The proper PSI and the inner tube are able to maintain the tire's ideal shape, preventing the bias plies from looking deformed. This ensures their performing safety and durability.The photo is a representation of the tire's possible deformation, it does not represent the specific tire model, size, tread pattern and application.This specific tire model features a BIASED ply construction.Due to the acquisition by Carlstar Tires, Carlisle tires are now manufactured under the Carlstar banner. For this reason, some Carlisle tires might come with the Carlstar brand name stamped on their sidewalls.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.
