Features and Benefits

An aggressive mud-terrain tire that’s designed for exceptional performance and longevity on challenging terrain, the Bandit M/T DX9 tire is among the best for maintaining control and traction in mud, rain, sand and snow. Let's take a closer look at the features and benefits of these tires.

• Enhanced mud-terrain traction: The tire's big, sturdy tread blocks and high void ratio improve its ability to grip off-road terrain surfaces. On all spongy and uneven terrain surfaces, these tread components provide a secure grip. With the best side bite, the upper sidewall pattern of the tread enhances the tire's forward motion in deeper muck and loose soil, preventing it from being stuck in such conditions.
• Self-cleaning ability: The wide grooves, open shoulders, stone-ejecting ribs, and steeped and staggered tread blocks remove mud and rocks that have become lodged between the tread components. As a result, stone retention is prevented from damaging the tire's casing. Self-cleaning properties of the tread remove snow from the footprint to increase the tire's traction and surface contact with the terrain.
• Increased cornering ability: Unique stabilized shoulder tread blocks increase cornering and maneuvering capability.
• Enhanced Steering response: Tread blocks closely mimic the surface of the terrain, which stabilizes the tire's structure against the driving pressure that affects it and enhances the speed and accuracy of the tire's response to the driver's steering commands.
• Longer tread life: Under the effects of driving and load pressure, the tire maintains its ideal form thanks to the stronger three-layer polyester cord and steel belt structure. As a result, during the drive, the tire's shape does not change. Additionally, this reinforced design actively deters off-road harm. In this way, the tire guards against cuts and punctures harming the tire's casing.
