Westlake Radial SL309

OVERVIEW

The Westlake Radial SL309 is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for light trucks. Westlake offers a 40,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.

The tire offers excellent all weather traction. The tread design features a multi-sipe detail that firmly grips the road surface in dry, wet and winter weather conditions. The tread design maintains a firm grip on the road surface, which ensures a safer driving experience. The driving security is further enhanced by the model’s exceptional hydroplaning resistance. The wide tread grooves effectively resist hydroplaning by eliminating water and slush from below the tire’s footprint. The result is a safer year round drive.

The tire performs well on concrete roads and has great durability. The internal structure features two high-tensile steel belts and a double polyester cord body that maintain the tire’s optimal shape during the drive. The prevention of deformation improves the tire’s load carrying ability, while also allowing better performance on slight off-road terrains. The tire’s off-road capability and damage, puncture and tear, resistance are further improved with the reinforced sidewalls. The stronger sidewalls ensure a safer driving experience as they prevent deformation and maintain the optimal tire shape in all weather.

The Radial SL309’s tread pattern features a variable pitch sequence. It negates the road noise generated while the tires are in motion by creating a sound frequency. This frequency cancels out the road noise made before it reaches the vehicle’s cabin. The result is a quiet and comfortable driving experience.

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.
