Falken RI151 Tires

The Falken RI151 is a highway terrain, all season tire made for the all axle position of commercial vehicles.

The tire improves the length of the usability. The optimized tire footprint and the tread design enhance the service life. The footprint’s close surface contact allows the tire to evenly distribute the driving pressure across the tread area, avoiding irregular wear formations. On the other hand, the stronger compound elements greatly decrease the tread wear rate. The slower and even wear greatly boosts the tire’s service and tread life.

The tread design’s better surface contact improves the controllability. The wider shoulder area enhances the road contact, which boosts the steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, the tire is quicker and more precise in its response to the driver’s commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the tire. The solid shoulder ribs upgrade the cornering ability with the use of extra biting edges, upgrading the maneuvering power. The stronger load durability is also ensured. The durable internal structure enables the tire to increase the load-carrying and withstanding capability, optimizing the load capacity.

The Falken RI151 also avoids stone retention with the tread design. The tread design’s stone defense ejects rocks stuck between the tread elements. As the tire does not allow rocks to lodge between the tread elements, preventing them from drilling into the tread area. In this manner, the stone retention does not damage the tire’s casing with rocks. This results in a safer performance.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
