• Turkish tyre manufacturer Lassa has extended its range of light commercial vehicle tyres, as part of its stated aim to increase its business in the UK by 50% this year.
Spearheading the sales drive are the new LC/T, LT/7 and 1.T/A tyres. The first two are traction-type tread applications with wide shoulder grooves for enhanced purchase. The Lisa offers enhanced lateral stiffness with optimised block geometry and tie bars at each groove
intersection, plus heat resistant cap and base tread compounds.
The 1.11A has an aggressive block type tread, particularly suited to off-road use. Staggered shoulder blocks provide extra traction in sand, mud, loose soil and snow. There is also a circumferential protective band at the shoulder area for sidewall cut resistance.
Sizes available are 185R 14 to 223 70R15 for the LCTIT, 7.50 R16 for the urrr and LT/A.
