2015 Global Tire Expo: BKT introduces ATV/UTV Tire

Nov. 6, 2015

BKT Tires Inc. introduced an all-terrain and utility-terrain vehicle tire at the 2015 Global Tire Expo in Las Vegas. The exposition is part of the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show.

The company says the new Bogmax is designed for mud racing. It features the following:

* a special tread compound engineered for cut and chip resistance;

* a strong casing that helps it resist bruises and punctures;

* "sidewall protectors" extended up to the bead;

* self-cleaning capabilities.

It also has a deep tread depth "best suited for deep mud," says Michael Aguon, associate vice president, OTR. It will even perform well in "waste deep water."

The Bogmax is currently available in one 6-ply size: AT32x10-14. The rim diameter is 8 inches.
