Firestone Winterforce 2 195/65R15 91S Tire

Firestone Winterforce 2

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

  • Winter weather traction
  • Enhanced controllability
  • Vibration free drive
  • Longer lasting tread life

OVERVIEW

The Firestone Winterforce 2 is a touring winter tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.

The tire promotes excellent winter weather traction. The special cold weather tire compound and the symmetric tread design enhance the snow and ice traction. The compounds exceptional flexibility in colder temperatures, which allows it to maintain its road gripping ability when driving on ice and snow. The open shoulder tread design and the wide tread grooves and the special siping detail boosts the hydroplaning resistance by dispersing water and slush from below the tires footprint. Furthermore, the tire is studdable for enhanced ice traction with #11 studs to ensure first-rate winter weather road grip.

The tread designs center rib enhances the models controllability. It upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability greatly. The tire is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting it, while its steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the drivers commands. The center ribs road contact also provides excellent braking ability as it creates friction at the moment of braking for a safer drive. The treads shoulder tread blocks enhance the cornering and maneuvering capability by increasing the number of biting edges that firmly grip the road surface in winter weather.

The models internal structure features reinforced twin steel belts and a polyester cord casing. The twin steel belts improve the tires driving durability. They optimize the tires shape and prevent deformation under the driving pressure affecting the tires while they are in motion. The polyester cord casing allows the tire to closely follow the road surface. This decreases the shock of driving and of the road contact, lowering the road vibrations felt in the vehicles cabin. As a result, the tire becomes more durable and comfortable.

The Winterforce 2 provides a longer lasting tread life. The tread patterns full depth tread elements and features upgrade the tread life and tire usability. The tread design also manages to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area, preventing irregular wear formations across the tread surface. The lengthened tread life and tire usability make the tire more cost efficient.

Pirelli P Zero Summer 225/40R18 92W XL Passenger Tire

Pirelli P Zero 225/40R18 92W XL

OVERVIEW

The race-inspired Pirelli P Zero is the tire you need for spirited, enthusiastic driving, as well as day-to-day commutes and road trips. The P Zero features a silica-enhanced tread compound for great grip in wet conditions as well as long wear. Wet-weather traction is enhanced by a set of circumferential grooves that channel water away from the tire’s footprint to resist hydroplaning, with S-shaped grooves toward the shoulder that aid in pressure distribution for cornering and braking. The P Zero’s tread and sidewall are rigid to resist high G forces (thanks to steel belts and a combination of polyamide and aramid cord), and Pirelli’s Noise Cancelling System (a layer of foam in the subtread) helps keep road noise low. NOTE: the Pirelli P Zero is a summer tire and not intended for cold temperatures, below 40-45 degrees F.

Bridgestone Potenza S001 RFT 225/40-18 92 Y Tire

Bridgestone Potenza S001 RFT

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

  • Summer weather traction
  • Run flat model
  • Precise steering responsiveness
  • Reduced road noise levels

OVERVIEW

The Bridgestone Potenza S001 RFT is a high performance summer run flat tire made for passenger vehicles.

The tire has exceptional summer traction and it grips the road well in dry and wet weather thanks to the tread pattern that features slanted-slug shoulder tread block sipes. The tire, however, is not suited to be driven in winter weather as it loses its excellent traction in the colder winter temperatures. The three wide circumferential grooves avoid dangerous hydroplaning by evacuating water from below the tire footprint. As a result, the tire is safe to use in all summer conditions.

This tire is a run flat model, which means that the tire can withstand the weight of the vehicle and its passengers in the case of air pressure loss. After the air pressure leaves the tire, it is capable of temporary mobility for 50 miles at up to a speed of 50 mph. In this way, the driver doesn’t get stranded on the side of the road when the tire gets punctured, but can safely drive to a location to repair or change the tire. Run flat tires are made from a heavier material and they cannot be mixed with regular tires.

The tread pattern enhances the braking and steering of the model. The braking power is improved and the braking distance is shortened as the tread pattern and enlarged road contact patch maintain constant contact with the road. The center rib keeps the contact with the road as well and it improves the tire model’s handling and steering ability. The steering responsiveness is quick and accurate and it allows the driver to confidently control the tire in dry and wet weather. The high speed capability of the model is increased with its internal structure which features twin steel belts spirally wrapped with nylon cord. This prevents the tire from deforming under the high speed driving pressure.

The Potenza S001 RFT offers a comfortable driving experience. The heat reducing technologies maintain constant contact between the tire and the road, decreasing the road vibrations felt in the cabin of the vehicle.
