Description

Keter KT766 235/85 R16 120S LT is a premium all-terrain tire built for commercial and off-road use. Featuring a robust 10-ply Load Range E construction, it utilizes a 3-ply polyester casing with dual steel belts and a nylon cap ply for maximum durability. The 0.052″ high-tensile steel bead wires provide exceptional rim retention, while the specially formulated tread compound incorporates wear-resistant additives and flexible polymers for all-season performance. The tire’s extra-thick sidewalls (25% thicker than standard LT tires) offer superior protection against impacts and abrasions.
