The Armstrong TRU-TRAC SU2 225/60 R17 is a road-focused SUV tyre developed for medium-sized crossovers, family SUVs and other vehicles approved for this tyre size. Its asymmetric tread structure is designed to provide stable road contact, dependable wet-road drainage, controlled steering response and comfortable everyday performance.
The inner tread area incorporates open drainage channels that help move water away from the contact patch during wet-road driving. Multiple tread edges provide additional gripping surfaces to support traction, braking and directional control in changing road conditions.
The outer tread section uses a wide shoulder area and advanced siping to provide additional support under steering and cornering loads. This helps maintain a more stable contact area during highway lane changes, turns and everyday SUV driving.
Broader SUV Stability and Road Contact
The 225 mm tread width provides a broad contact area that supports braking stability, straight-line tracking and cornering control. Its 60-profile sidewall retains useful cushioning, helping absorb road joints, rough surfaces and minor impacts before they reach the vehicle cabin.
Compared with the narrower 215/60 R17 size, the 225/60 R17 provides a wider footprint and a slightly taller sidewall. This can support a more planted road feel, but vehicle compatibility must be checked carefully because the two sizes do not have the same overall dimensions.
The groove-based noise-reduction pattern is designed to manage the sound generated as the tread contacts the road. Actual cabin noise will also depend on road texture, tyre pressure, vehicle insulation, wheel alignment and tread wear.
The 225/60 R17 size should only be installed where it is approved by the vehicle manufacturer and where the tyre's load index, speed rating, wheel width, overall diameter and suspension-clearance requirements are fully satisfied.
BLU-TRAC SU2 Technology
Armstrong TRU-TRAC SU2 Tread Technology
Road-focused SUV tread design. The TRU-TRAC SU2 is developed for crossovers and SUVs primarily driven on paved roads. Its tread separates wet-road drainage and steering-support functions across the inner and outer sections.
Advanced tread compound. The compound is designed to maintain effective engagement between the tyre and the road across changing temperatures and surface conditions. This supports acceleration, braking and everyday driving control.
Optimised inner tread design. Open channels across the inner tread provide pathways for water to move away from the contact patch. This supports wet-road traction, stability and controlled cornering.
Water-drainage channels. Connected tread channels help reduce water accumulation beneath the tyre by directing it away from the road-contact area.
Wide outer shoulder. The outer tread area uses a wider and more stable shoulder structure to support steering response, cornering and directional changes.
Advanced shoulder siping. Sipes across the outer tread create additional gripping edges while allowing the shoulder area to maintain effective road contact under normal SUV loads.
Load-supporting outer tread. The outer tread structure is designed to withstand the steering and cornering loads associated with crossovers and SUVs while maintaining a stable contact area.
Noise-reduction groove pattern. The groove structure is designed to reduce tread-pattern noise during road contact by changing the groove surface area and disrupting repetitive sound frequencies.
Stable road-contact footprint. The combination of a wide shoulder, drainage-focused inner tread and road-oriented block arrangement supports predictable handling during braking, cornering and highway manoeuvres.
Radial SUV construction. The tyre uses radial construction suited to road-going crossovers and SUVs, balancing tread stability with the flexibility required for everyday ride comfort.
Tread-wear indicators. Moulded tread-wear bars provide a visible reference as the tread approaches its replacement limit. The tyre should also be inspected regularly for cuts, cracking, bulges, puncture damage and irregular wear.

Understanding Tyre Size 225/60 R17 / How to Read Tyre Size
Vehicles with 225/60 R17 Tyre Size
What does 225/60 R17 mean?
225/60 R17 is the tyre size.
225 is the maximum width of the tyre in milimetres(mm). When the vehicle is fully loaded its width can expand maximum upto 225 milimetres(mm).
60 is the ratio among width and height of the tyre from its rim. it means that the height of the tyre is precisely 60% of the 225mm. Lower ratio improves road grip, but it reduces comfort to some extent.
R – refers to the method the tyre is produced. The letter “R” is found on all modern car tyres. It indicates the radial structure of tyre cosntructed with steel wires.
17 represents the diameter of the rim. It is a measurement in inches(“). This number should be rememberd as it is the measurement of the rims. It has to match exactly to what is mentioned in the car manual.
