The new-for-2004 AC10 is the first Michelin tire designed for the dual sport rider who rides primarily off-road. Though DOT-approved for street use, the AC10’s aggressive bi-directional tread provides excellent traction in a wide range of conditions. The AC10 sports a reversible tread pattern, with a treadwear indicator that clearly shows when to reverse the tire on the rim. The AC10 offers excellent traction on virtually any terrain thanks to its optimized knob alignment. The AC10 offers good grip on asphalt, with an ‘M’ speed rating that means the tires can be used at any legal highway speed. A specially formulated rubber mix promotes impressive durability, and the knobs are shaped to resist tearing and chunking even under hard use.
