Saferich FRC96 – 195/75R16C 107/105S

Description: The Saferich FRC96 in 195/75R16C is a high-load, Commercial-rated (C) tyre specifically designed for the narrow-wheel configurations of heavy-duty transporters and high-roof vans. This size is a critical fitment for vehicles like the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Volkswagen Crafter, Ford Transit (RWD), and Iveco Daily. The “75” aspect ratio provides a tall sidewall that is excellent for absorbing road shocks, making it ideal for carrying fragile cargo over long distances.

Key Features and Technical Details:

• Commercial Chassis (C): Engineered with a reinforced multi-ply carcass to handle the high internal pressures and constant vertical loads required for professional logistics and trade work.

• Dual Load Index (107/105):

  • 107 (Single Fitment): Supports up to 975 kg (2,150 lbs) per tyre on a standard axle.

  • 105 (Dual Fitment): Supports up to 925 kg (2,039 lbs) per tyre when used in a “dually” (four tyres on the rear axle) setup, common on 3.5-ton and 5-ton chassis cabs.

• Speed Rating (S): Rated S (up to 112 mph / 180 km/h), providing a safe operating ceiling for fully laden vans during long-distance motorway cruising.

• Tall Profile Cushioning: The 75-series sidewall offers significant vertical travel, which helps protect the vehicle’s suspension and reduce cargo vibration on uneven road surfaces or worksites.

• Tread Engineering:

  • Three Deep Zigzag Grooves: These grooves provide a high volume for water evacuation, preventing hydroplaning and offering extra “biting edges” for traction on muddy or snow-slushy roads.

  • Stone Ejectors: The groove geometry is specifically designed to prevent “stone drilling,” where small rocks get trapped and eventually pierce the steel belts.

• Side-Wall Scuff Guard: Includes an extra-thick layer of rubber on the sidewall to protect the tyre’s structural integrity from curb damage during tight urban maneuvers.
