Mastercraft Introduces the Avenger HP

FINDLAY, OHIO, MARCH 15, 2004 – MASTERCRAFT TIRES recently launched its newest addition in performance tires – the Mastercraft Avenger HP.

The new tire is part of Mastercraft’s continued initiative on the rapidly growing high performance tire market, with an emphasis on the tuner segment. Designed for the automotive enthusiast who demands performance and appearance, the Avenger HP is a true performance tire. The tire is aimed at specialty equipment consumers who purchase sporty tires and other aftermarket performance equipment to enhance their vehicles.

This tire features an aggressive directional tread design and attractive performance sidewall to compliment today’s performance driver. The tire is constructed in a high-tech engineered package designed to meet the car enthusiasts’ demands for responsive handling. Capitalizing on its all-weather performance lines, the Avenger HP offers not only good looks and crisp handling, but also even wear and a smooth, comfortable, quiet ride, enhancing the look of the vehicle.

Among this new performance radial’s distinctions is a range of sizes. Currently, this H-rated tire is offered in 17 sizes, from 15 inch to 18-inch sizes, also encompassing many original equipment fitments for replacement and tuned vehicle opportunities and carries an M+S rating.

“Tuner enthusiasts are very image conscious,” says Carl Casalbore, vice president of retail sales and high performance tire development. “But looks without performance doesn’t mean anything. Driving enthusiasts want both. Mastercraft has delivered that combination in the Avenger HP – a must-have tire to encourage today’s performance driver to ‘Master the Road.’”

The new performance tuner tire from Mastercraft. Tune it up!

Mastercraft tires are sold through independent tire dealers worldwide.
