APOLLO TYRES HAS LAUNCHED ITS FIRST DEDICATED
ALL-TERRAIN TYRE, the Vredestein Pinza. Designed to be ‘comfortably rugged’, this is an all-weather, all-terrain fi tment for 4x4s, pick-ups, and SUVs that are used on and off-road. The tyre is based on a three-ply carcase and features a three-pitched shoulder and sharp edge blocks for effi cient self-cleaning and additional grip on loose surfaces. It’s also designed for low noise and good road manners, in particular for all-round grip and responsive steering. Already well established in the USA, the Pinza is available here in two forms: ‘P’ and ‘LT’. The latter is intended for working vehicles which are primarily used in more demanding off-road conditions, with the ‘P’ has a more road-biased design to suit passenger-carrying SUVs. In each case, the Pinza carries the 3-Peak Mountain Snowfl ake logo, meaning it’s approved for use as a winter tyre in nations where this is a thing. It’s initially available in 24 sizes, with more to follow.
