It provides high brake safety and grip on snowy surfaces with wide side channels
It provides high brake safety and grip on snowy surfaces with wide side channels and multi-lamella blocks, optimized towards rolling direction. Minimum road/pattern noise and high driving comfort with computer designed block array. High performance on snowy and ıcy surfaces with Z-shaped lamellas… Enables fast and effective water discharge with wide circular channels. Its complete silicate tread mixture, improved with FST, helps to preserve elasticity in low temperatures and increases the grip capacity on snowy/icy surfaces; provides stability and comfortable drive during high speed voyages.
Technology & Benefits
FST - Fine Silica Technology Full silica tread compound remains flexible even at very low temperatures and ensures superb braking and handling on snow and ice.
HIGH TECH UNDERTREAD CONSTRUCTION Jointless “0” degree spiral nylon cover and wide steel belts. It improves uniformity for smoother ride, durability and tread wear.
JOINTLESS MONO STRAND BEAD WIRE AND HARD BEAD FILLER Strengthens the link between tire and rim for a more precise driving experience. Improve lateral stability in high speed cornering and uniformity for smoother ride.
EU Tyre Label and Efficiency Classes
The European Union has introduced the EU Tyre Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tyres, light commercial vehicle tyres and heavy commercial vehicle tyres produced after 01.07.2012.
Three different areas are tested: rolling resistance, wet grip and the rolling noise the tyre makes on the road.
The following are not affected by the EU Tyre Label: retreaded tyres, professional off-road tyres, racing tyres, tyres with additional devices to improve traction such as spiked tyres, T-type emergency tyres, special tyres for fitting to vehicles first registered before 1 October 1990, tyres with a maximum authorised speed of 80 km/h, tyres for rims with a nominal diameter of 254 mm or less or 635 mm or more.
With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decision-making aid.
Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tyre Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tyre labelling, tyres have much more important and safety-relevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.
Tyre manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safety-relevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tyre labelling, which are always important for the final customer.
