Warrior WS306 275/70R22.5 152J

Ready for hard work on Kiwi roads, the Warrior WS306 275/70R22.5 152J delivers dependable grip and long, even wear in all conditions. Its solid centre rib keeps steering true, while wide grooves clear water for confident wet braking and reduced aquaplaning. A robust carcass and reinforced shoulders add stability under load and resist irregular wear, helping you get more kilometres per tyre and lower running costs. Quiet, efficient and built tough, the WS306 is a smart, value-driven choice. Buy now and get it fitted with confidence.

Advanced silica compound. The Warrior WS306 275/70R22.5 152J uses a high-dispersion silica-loaded tread formulation with modern silane coupling agents to raise tan d in the wet-grip temperature window while suppressing heat build-up at operating speeds, improving both braking on rain-soaked chipseal and rolling efficiency on long highway legs. Enhanced filler–polymer bonding reduces micro-tearing at the tread surface, slowing wear on coarse New Zealand aggregates and maintaining biting edges for longer. Lower hysteresis at 60–80°C trims fuel consumption, while the optimised carbon black/silica ratio balances cut resistance with pliability for consistent traction across a wide range of ambient conditions.

Optimised tread geometry. A multi-rib tread with variable-pitch blocks, 3D chamfers and interlocking tie-bars stabilises the contact patch of the Warrior WS306 275/70R22.5 152J under braking and lateral load, reducing tread squirm and irregular wear. The rib stiffness is graded from centre to shoulder to equalise contact pressure, which helps deliver precise steering response and shorter dry and wet stopping distances. The siping density is tuned to open under low vertical load for water film penetration, then lock under high load for block rigidity, giving confident turn-in without sacrificing hydroplaning resistance.

Reinforced casing construction. The Warrior WS306 275/70R22.5 152J employs a robust carcass with twin high-tensile steel belts under a spiral-wound nylon cap ply to maintain shape integrity at speed and distribute stress uniformly across the footprint. A reinforced bead bundle with hard apex inserts improves rim fit and steering precision, while the sidewall ply profile is engineered to absorb impact energy from potholes and coarse rural surfaces without casing growth. This construction limits heat generation in the shoulder belt edge—one of the primary drivers of premature wear—thereby improving durability and helping keep the tyre in alignment spec for longer, reducing cost per kilometre.

Wide circumferential grooves. Four wide, straight circumferential grooves with tapered groove walls and lateral evacuation channels move large volumes of water away from the contact patch of the Warrior WS306 275/70R22.5 152J, raising the hydroplaning threshold speed on wet motorways. The groove geometry reduces flow separation and maintains negative pressure at the leading edge, allowing the tread to maintain micro-contact with the surface film. Combined with shoulder notches that break up standing waves, this promotes consistent wet braking and cornering performance in heavy rain typical of New Zealand’s changeable conditions.

Noise-tuned block sequence. A variable-pitch sequence and staggered lateral groove layout are used on the Warrior WS306 275/70R22.5 152J to disrupt harmonic amplification as the tread passes through the contact zone, lowering pattern noise without compromising block rigidity. By spreading energy across a broader frequency band and incorporating chamfered leading edges to soften impact excitation, the tyre achieves quieter cabin NVH on coarse-chip surfaces, improving comfort on long drives. The reduced vibrational input also lessens fatigue loading on the tread, contributing to more even wear across the service life.
