What brand is catchpower tires?

catchpower is an economical tire under the Windforce Wantuchi Group. The parent company of Wantuchi tires is Qingdao Fengchi Tire Co., Ltd. Fengchi tires are mainly for export, while Wantuchi is a brand created by Fengchi Tire for the Chinese sales market. The Wantuchi catchpower series tires have good wear resistance and comfort. At the same time, the four drainage channels provide excellent driving stability and water drainage for the vehicle. Tires, together with the car's suspension system, cushion the impact forces during driving, providing good ride comfort and smoothness while ensuring excellent adhesion between the wheels and the road. Tires bear the weight of the car, making them one of the most important components of a vehicle. Tire characteristics: The tread of car tires features patterns that enhance performance, along with increased section width and lower internal pressure for better cushioning. Car tires can be structurally categorized into radial tires and bias-ply tires. Tips for choosing tires: Choose new tires of the same size as the original ones. For those who enjoy aggressive driving, tires wear out faster, so opt for more durable ones. For national highways or expressway driving: To ensure maximum safety during high-speed braking, choose tires that offer the shortest braking distances on both dry and wet roads. For comfort during long trips, select tires that provide a comfortable ride (with minimal bumps and noise). For performance, lean towards high-performance tires. For city driving: To handle various urban hazards (like pedestrians crossing the road), choose tires with the shortest braking distances on dry and wet surfaces. For long mileage life, select tires that resist deformation and sliding of tread blocks under engine power or braking forces, which wear down the rubber. Opt for tires with longer mileage life. For fuel economy, tires with lower rolling resistance can significantly reduce fuel consumption. When using catchpower tires daily, pay attention to the following: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. As tires wear down, the tread grooves gradually become shallow. Worn-out treads lose their water drainage and anti-skid functions, greatly reducing the car's performance. Small cracks can pose a risk of blowouts at high speeds. Also, promptly remove pebbles stuck in the grooves. Park on level ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that degrade rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool overheated tires. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires can overheat, increasing air pressure. In such cases, stop to let the tires cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool them, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Minimize frequent and hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear from dragging on the road.
Catchpower is actually a specialized series under the Cooper tire brand. Cooper is a long-established American tire company that was later acquired by Goodyear. This series is primarily designed for commercial vehicles, such as light trucks or pickups, with a strong emphasis on durability and load capacity. A friend of mine runs a small logistics company, and all his fleet uses this brand of tires because they perform stably in long-distance transportation, can handle gravel roads or mountain paths, and have a much longer lifespan than regular passenger car tires. If you're not in the transportation business and just have an ordinary family car, there might not be much need to choose them, as the price is slightly higher. Overall, it's a reliable choice, especially suitable for owners who frequently carry loads. They are quite hassle-free to use, with minimal wear even after several years.
