Contact patch of its tread is minimized due to wide open grooves. Genreal Grabber X3 does not play good on roads owing to lesser surface area and lesser siping of tread. On-Road Traction Comparisonĭue to closely placed tread blocks ATX, it has a higher contact patch which enhances traction on road as more surface area of tread is in contact with road.īlocks contain sipes and dimples which wipe off water, hence, these tires resist hydroplaning and show better wet traction than its competitor. Tread rubber of X3 is not much sturdy in comparison and its tread wear is also not warranted. Prominent stone ejectors knock out rocky fragments, small stones and tiny pebbles out of the grooves and safeguard tire from stone clogging.Īggressive shoulders and sidewalls offer firm handling over the difficult corners. High width and depth of grooves make the tire capable of pushing out mud, snow and gravel backwards as it rolls in forward direction. High void ratio allows only a limited contact patch with road decreasing dry grip of the tire. X3 has a classic MT look with aggressive tread design having wider grooves, raised tread blocks and prominent stone ejectors. The composition of tread is very durable, ATX comes with a tread wear warranty from the manufacturer. Grabber ATX Tread Patternĭue to narrow grooves these are not much effective comparatively in draining mud or slush out from tire.Īlthough tiny stone ejectors and alternate scooping of shoulder lugs provide grip on rocky terrains but comparatively this tire is not better in terms of venturing off-road either on rocks or mud. Tread blocks have numerous sipes and also contain dimples, these factors are responsible for excellent removal of water leading to great wet traction. Large area of shoulder lugs combined with its sturdy composition makes handling on hard paved surfaces, outclass. It exhibits a lower void ratio allowing greater contact of tread and ground, thus has good grip on road.
It has a contemporary tread design characterizing big shoulder lugs, frequent siping circumferentially, dimples over tread blocks and stone ejectors. The General Grabber ATX design is just like that of KO2.
