Commercial drivers typically drive many miles while they haul goods to and from, so they need a tire that's built to last. Fortunately, Continental built the Conti Hybrid HT3 with these drivers in mind as it features a tough rubber compound and closed shoulder design that reduce uneven wear for a longer tread life. Built for use on the trailer axle of trucks and buses in regional and mixed service applications, the Conti Hybrid HT3's four wide grooves channel water out of the tire to reduce the risk of hydroplaning for better traction and performance in wet weather. An optimized design reduces road noises and vibrations to create a quiet, comfortable ride for drivers and passengers, and the Conti Hybrid HT3's low rolling resistance design increases fuel efficiency so that drivers can go longer between visits to the pump.
