Built for High-Scrub Applications
The Conti Hybrid HT3 255/70R22.5 was made to help carry the extra load of the vehicle and withstand the abuse that these wheel positions often face.
As a lift and tag axle position tire, the robust compound and design in the size extension is intended to withstand the high scrub situations that tires in these applications typically see.
The tread pattern is designed to withstand abrasions and features a fuel-efficient compounding. This compounding allows for lower rolling resistance, heat buildup in service and wears 26 percent better than the EcoPlus HT3.
As with the other tires in this family line up, the Conti Hybrid HT3 is Smartway verified. The size extension also has a matching winged retread to make it more robust when retreaded.
Continental said this tire is monitored best when it has Continental’s Generation 2 tire mounted sensor and is paired with Continental’s digital tire monitoring solutions, ContiConnect Live.
ContiConnect Live also has a trailer only version for trailers that are dropped at locations for later use.
