Achilles Platinum 175/70 R13 82H

The Achilles Platinum tire has taken on all the best developments from "Nokian" in the field of car tire development for passenger cars. It is designed specifically for calm driving on the city highway in warm weather, but, like all Achilles tires, due to the aggressive tread profile and unique developments, it can also be used as an all-season tire, but only in the case of moderate and low-snow winter, which occurs only in the European part of Russia.

Achilles Platinum, as mentioned above, is designed for calm driving. However, this model has sufficiently high speed indices - H and V, which indicate that it can accelerate to 210 km/h and 240 km/h, respectively. Therefore, it can be used for quite fast driving. In general, this tire is more universal.

This tire is distinguished by an increased mileage, which became possible due to the increase in the contact area with the road surface - the pressure inside the contact patch is distributed evenly, which contributes to the greater wear resistance of the tire. Another positive characteristic of this model is its affordable price, which allows any car enthusiast to get this quality tire.

If we talk about operational characteristics, it is necessary to note, first of all, the directional, aggressive tread pattern, which provides high-quality traction with any surface. The traction properties are ensured by the increased working surface of the tread. The continuous central rib, on which the company's logo is applied, allows for confident contact with the road, and the two aggressive blocks on either side of it guarantee high directional stability during straight-line movement and a clear response to steering commands.

The shoulder areas of the Platinum tire from Achilles are dotted with numerous wide channels. They provide better traction when driving on soft ground or snow, as well as contribute to better water evacuation from the tread. The latter is handled by four longitudinal ring grooves of optimal depth, which perfectly protect the tread from water, mud, and wet snow, minimizing the risk of aquaplaning.

In conclusion, it can be summarized that this model is ideal for those who pay great attention to the ratio of price and quality, as well as seeks to get a tire for confident city driving in warm weather with the possibility of using it in winter.
