Ikon Tires: the best time to buy tires is in the off-season

Promotions and discounts are most often offered in the off-season; it is at this time that you can find the best price for the tires of the desired brand. Alexander Parkhomchuk, head of the group for technical customer support, testing and certification at Ikon Tires, told Motor magazine about this.

The basis is the Ford F-150 Lariat SuperCrew 4×4 with a 5.0-liter naturally aspirated V8. Shelby upgrades the engine with a Stage 2 supercharging system, upgraded injectors, a carbon fiber intake, a high-efficiency heat exchanger and a custom-tuned Borla exhaust system. The total power is over 810 hp, the company has not yet disclosed torque data.

It’s worth emphasizing that this truck is not a highly specialized version for the drag strip. Although with proper skill he will probably cope with this task, otherwise he should show decent results. How good can a car be that was not originally designed for high-speed racing and, due to its heavy weight, is objectively inferior to its competitors? The question remains open.

Previously, the reasons for rapid tire wear were named.
