AZ782
The car tire market is represented by a variety of models for truck trailers. But most of these tires are designed for long-haul transport, that is, for traveling on high-quality highways. But what to do if cargo is supposed to be transported not only on good roads but also off-road? In this case, you will need off-road tires, such as those that we plan to talk about next.
AZ782 tires are a versatile solution for any trailed equipment that is used in different operating conditions. These tires will be appropriate on highways, dirt roads, and even light off-road conditions. Well, in addition to its versatility, the AZ782 model has several other equally important advantages.
About the brand
More recently, Goodride Tire did not operate in the Western market, contenting itself with the Asian market. Now the company is developing the market of Western countries, and therefore offers its products at very attractive prices.
I must say that Goodride Tire products are sold at the most affordable prices today. In any case, there are no European, Japanese, or American tires that are cheaper than Goodride branded products.
And what about quality at affordable prices? And the quality is all right. Moreover, Goodride Tire's tire production is one of the most technologically advanced today. Judge for yourself: at the company's enterprises, most of the work processes are fully automated. This, in principle, excludes the negative impact of the notorious human factor. And besides automation, the enterprises have introduced strict quality control of finished products. And therefore, finding Goodride Tire tires with a factory defect is almost unrealistic today. So, we know about the manufacturer, the prices, and the quality of the products, and therefore we will return to the AZ782 tires.
AZ782 characteristics
- Double steel belts increase durability to help prevent punctures and increase traction stability of the vehicle
- Components that reduce wheel resistance and increase mileage, not only improve wheel drive performance but also provide economical fuel consumption
- Full nylon cover, available in all sizes shown, improves uniformity and strength
Features of operation
AZ782 tires are suitable for equipping any trailed equipment. Alternatively, they can be used as steering tires on rear-wheel-drive trucks. The peculiarity of this tire model is that they are designed to maintain directional stability, but do not provide sufficient traction to provide sufficient acceleration dynamics of the truck. However, the design of the tires is such that they provide maximum grip when braking. And this is a very important feature, given that a tractor with a loaded trailer will be braked by the trailer, especially if it is going downhill. By the way, AZ782 is a perfectly balanced tire that creates almost no resistance to wheel rotation. Therefore, with these tires on the trailer, it is much easier for the tractor to maintain a constant cruising speed.
AZ782 advantages
Reliability and durability. The material from which the tread is made is as strong as the tread of the leading tires. Therefore, these tires run one and a half times more than other Chinese all-weather trailer tires. Additional proof of durability can serve as a manufacturer's warranty. Goodride Tire provides a warranty for its products up to 5 years from the date of purchase or 50-65 thousand miles. Agree, to give such a guarantee, the manufacturer must be sure that the tire is very reliable and durable.
Resistance to mechanical stress and deformation. The rubber compound used in the manufacture of these tires is cut and puncture resistant. In addition, the design uses a radial frame, which provides additional resistance to impact. This is more than important if you are going to travel on a bad road, where the wheel regularly gets into potholes. Again, radial tires hold high double vision better than bias tires.
Self-cleaning tread function. When driving on dirt roads, and even more so off-road, stones will certainly get stuck in the tire tread. This does not affect driving performance in any way, but the stones gradually destroy the tread. There is no such problem in AZ782 tires, since, due to the peculiarities of the tread pattern, stones they take off by themselves already when driving at a speed of 35 mph.
High directional stability. There are tires on which the trailer does not follow the trajectory of the tractor but constantly strives to go to the side. The truck driver is forced to follow the road and, in addition, to return the trailer to the originally set course. This is not an easy task. But if AZ782 tires are used, the trailer follows the truck. This is true both when driving in a straight line and when cornering. This means that these tires greatly simplify the life of the driver.
All-weather operation. The AZ782 tires, due to the design features of the tread and thanks to the rubber thermosetting compound, provide acceptable directional stability and acceptable braking, regardless of climatic conditions. These tires run great on both dry and wet roads. However, on the packed snow, when operating the trailer with AZ782 tires, no problems were noticed either.
Fuel economy. How can tires save fuel, you ask? They can if they do not prevent rolling. Goodride AZ782s are well balanced, so there is no wobbling and the tire does not slow down the tractor and trailer. On average, if a set of modern tires from Goodride Tire is installed on the tractor and trailer, the savings will be up to 10-15% compared to the fuel consumption of conventional tires.
Are there any disadvantages that a buyer should be aware of? As such, there are no shortcomings, but perhaps there are no official representatives of Goodride Tire where you live. No, of course, you can purchase these tires from numerous unofficial dealerships.
More about design features
As originally stated, the AZ782 is a versatile tire that performs well on both level asphalt and ground. This result was achieved thanks to many factors, but first of all, the design features affected the operation.
In the production of AZ782 tires, a radial weave carcass is used. As a result, these tires are slightly heavier than if using a bias carcass, but they are significantly stronger due to their resistance to frontal deformations and tears.
