Construction vehicles need a commercial tire that's tough enough to withstand difficult use on job sites and other off-road terrains. Fortunately, Continental built the HDC1 HT with a rigid belt package that features a full width top belt and extra sidewall protect for increased strength and durability when driving off-road. Alternating groove geometry and a stone bumper system force rocks, stones, mud, dirt, water, slush, and other debris out of the tread to protect the casing from damage and increase traction, and the HDC1 HT's rubber compound resists cutting and chipping to further enhance durability.
