Aeolus AS02 Cross Ace 205/55 R16 87W

The summer passenger tire Aeolus AS02 Cross Ace is the first model of this well-known Chinese manufacturer designed for SUVs. The novelty belongs to the H/T (High Terrain) category models. This means that the main specialization of this tire is asphalt roads. However, its tread pattern contains a sufficient number of cutting edges to handle light off-road driving if necessary. The size range of the model is designed with its use on compact and medium-sized crossovers with a wheel diameter of 15 inches or more.

Excellent efficiency at high speed

Chinese tire manufacturers have equipped the Aeolus AS02 Cross Ace tire with a symmetrical non-directional tread pattern. Its central part is occupied by three longitudinal ribs. This design provides excellent directional stability even at high speeds. Additionally, due to the rigid construction of the central rib, the company's specialists were able to significantly reduce the tire's response time to steering wheel turns. As a result, handling has become more refined.

Superb maneuverability stability

More than half of the tread pattern area is occupied by shoulder zones. Each of them is a row of very massive rectangular blocks. Their large size has made it possible to significantly increase the tire's resistance to deformation caused by lateral acceleration forces. As a result, when driving in turns, the tire demonstrates excellent stability and resistance to lateral skidding.

Another feature of the shoulder zones of the tread is the arrangement of rectangular blocks. Their long edges are directed almost perpendicularly to the direction of movement. Thanks to this, it was possible to significantly reduce the braking distance, especially on wet roads.
