BLEMISH LT | MT GUARD DOG 285/65R18 10 PLY REMOLD USA
The Rough and Ready M/T Tire with Traction that Bites: The Guard Dog is TreadWright’s optimum off-road tire, designed to provide maximum traction for all your 4x4 adventures. The Guard Dog will give any Light Truck, 4x4 or SUV a rugged look that provides premium off-road traction and a quieter on highway experience with more lugs on the surface of the road.
Typical blemishes are:
Short Shot - This means that the rubber did not completely fill and press in the mold on a tread lug. The tire will still perform, it just ends up with a few lines in the tread block. The rubber is still the same density and should wear normally.
Sidewall Blem - A sidewall blem is due to not enough even heat on the sidewall plate on a Bead to Bead tire. In this situation it does not completely cure the sidewall leaving a ring around the tire. Most customers just mount this side in, since it usually only happens on one side of the tire.
Balancing Weight - Many of our blems may require additional weight to balance the tire (up to 12 ounces).
Tread Block - Some tires can have an extra layer of rubber considered Tread Block
- The Guard Dog’s combined uniform center lug pattern and open outer lugs create an off-road tire with maximum traction, while generating less noise for highway commuting. Guard Dog’s (M/T) are designed for the Light Truck, 4x4 and SUV adventure seeker who desires the look and performance of rugged, off-road mud-terrain tires, while maintaining excellent wear characteristics in all driving conditions. Guard Dogs are available in widths up to 35” and rim sizes up to 18”.
*Treadwright Tires recommend static balancing of our tires. Due to our aggressive lugs and that we static balance our tires during production, static balancing is the best option.
