Hankook Vantra LT

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Enhanced durability
• All weather traction
• Improved controllability
• Longer lasting tread life

OVERVIEW

The Hankook Vantra LT is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for commercial vans and light trucks.

The tire offers a secure all weather traction. The symmetric tread design's elements improve the tire's firm and consistent road grip throughout the year. The tread features special 3D lateral grooves that boost the tire's grip on ice and snow. The optimal all season silica-based compound maintains the tire's flexibility in various conditions. This allows the tire to increase the all weather driving safety. The tread's circumferential grooves increase the water and slush dispersing ability and power, which significantly increases the hydroplaning prevention and the wet and winter weather traction.

The model is easily controlled. The tread's symmetric pattern closely follows the road surface at all times, which increases the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. This allows the tire to boost the model's response time and precision to the driver's instructions, while it also stabilizes the structure against the driving pressure affecting the model. The stable shoulder elements and 3D lateral grooves upgrade the braking ability by creating friction at the moment of braking. This greatly shortens the braking distance, providing a safer performance. The tread's shoulder blocks also increase the cornering capability. They heighten the number of biting edges gripping the road surface while the tires are in motion. This ensures an overall safer controllability in all conditions.

The tire guarantees first-rate durability. The completely reinforced internal structure maintains the optimal tire shape under the driving and load pressure affecting the model. The structure features a strengthened belt layer, double steel belts, and optimized inner liner, a durable carcass and high-density bead filler. These elements work together to keep the ideal tire shape at all times. As the tire's shape does not deform during the drive, it allows the tire to improve its load carrying and withstanding capability. The better load handling capability makes the tire perfect for commercial van and truck applications.

The tire offers a lengthened tread life. The ideal tire shape's constant road contact and the stabilized tread elements work together to increase the length of the tire's usability. The optimized road contact ensures even pressure distribution along the tread area. The equally circulated forces of acceleration, cornering and braking avoids the formation of irregular wear along the tread area. The stable tread elements prevent tread flexing, which further promotes an extended service life. In this manner, the tire guarantees a longer lasting tread life.

The Vantra LT assures a quiet performance. The tread design's continuous center rib upgrades the comfort levels. It channels airwaves through the tire's footprint and prevents them from coming into contact with the tread elements. In this manner, the road and tread pattern noise are not generated during the drive. The lowered road noise levels provide a quiet and enjoyable driving experience.

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.

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.
