New Highway Tire Delivers Improved Ride Comfort, Wet Handling and Snow Traction

Ironman Tires recently announced the launch of the All Country® HT 4S, the brand’s first all-weather highway terrain tire designed to deliver year-round confidence, enhanced ride comfort and dependable traction for everyday drivers.

The All Country® HT 4S expands the popular All Country® lineup with a highway-focused tire that combines advanced tread design, next-generation compound technology and all-weather capability with Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMS) certification without compromising tread life or affordability. The All Country® HT 4S come in 46 sizes, with the first 27 sizes available now at Ironman retailers.

“The All Country® HT 4S brings all-weather confidence to the highway terrain segment,” said Keith Calcagno, Chief Strategy Officer, Proprietary Brands, American Tire Distributors. “These tires are designed for drivers who want a quiet, comfortable ride with dependable traction in rain and snow — all at a value they can trust.”

The All Country® HT 4S features an intricate tread pattern engineered through advanced modeling and simulation to enhance wet handling, braking performance and overall ride quality. A next-generation all-weather compound featuring a 600 UTQG treadwear rating delivers improved snow traction and 3PMS certification, providing added security in wintry conditions while maintaining long mileage performance.

As Ironman’s first all-weather highway terrain tire, the HT 4S is engineered for daily driving and long-distance comfort. Its optimized tread pattern and structural design improve steering response and wet traction, while a simulated pitch sequence and carefully engineered tread block arrangement reduce pattern noise and vibration.

Key features of the Ironman All Country® HT 4S include:

All-weather tread compound with high-performance polymers that exceed 3PMS certification requirements while enhancing mileage performance
Optimized tread pattern and tire construction to boost wet handling, braking and steering response
Four wide circumferential grooves and 3D siping to promote excellent wet traction, braking and grip in snowy and icy conditions
Enhanced ride comfort through simulated pitch design, optimized tread block arrangement and strategically designed groove angles to reduce noise at highway speeds

The Ironman All Country® HT 4S is backed by a 60-month limited protection policy covering defects in workmanship and materials, Road Hazard Protection and a 55,000-mile warranty, reinforcing Ironman’s commitment to reliability and value.
