A rounded shoulder lawn and garden tire offers a footprint that
increases maneuverability while minimizing damage to the turf when
turning. Rounded shoulders are found on the Carlisle Turf Trac R/S.
A squared shoulder lawn and garden tires are designed to achieve a
larger, flatter footprint while providing high flotation, enhanced
traction and a more rugged appearance. Squared shoulders are found are
found on the Carlisle Turf Saver.
The load carrying capacity of a tire determined by air pressure and
air volume. The construction of a tire determines how pressure and
volume a tire can hold.
For all Carlisle tire products maintaining air pressure at or near the
maximum pressure listed on the sidewall of the tire will lead to
maximum tire life and performance.
A tube type tire can only be used with a tube, but a tubeless tire can
be used with or without a tube. A tubeless tire has an inner liner of
butyl rubber which is less permeable by air.
For every 10 degree change in the ambient air temperature you may
experience a change in air pressure of 1 PSI inside a mounted tire.
When used in a trailer application an ST (special trailer) tire offers
10% more load capacity than an equivalent LT (light truck) tire and 40%
more load capacity than a passenger tire.
Trailer Tires have stiffer sidewalls for reduced sidewall flex under
load, resulting in straighter tracking and a reduced risk of trailer
sway.
