The profile of the MARATHON LHD stands out through a highly positive response. It's broad road contact area enables an even load distribution and thus an even erosion and a higher performance.  Deep profile grooves and blocks aranged in shifts ensure an outstanding traction and a better braking performance on wet roads.

The semiopened shoulder and the optimized block arrangement ensure a low unreeling noise.  The protection against stones getting caught in the pattern also prevents cuts, stone damage and profile outbreaks. The MARATHON LHD is a tire for the drive axle and can be re-cut and retreaded.
