The scope of application of the Bridgestone SF-226 summer tire is compact passenger cars. It is perfect for urban conditions. It is characterized by comfort in handling and good braking properties on a wet surface, fuel efficiency, and acoustic comfort.
The tread pattern is distinguished by a high content of gripping edges. Most of them are formed not by blocks, but by slits made in them, lamellas. This significantly improves the effectiveness of the tread on a wet surface. The increased volume and multidirectionality of the water drainage grooves reduce the risk of aquaplaning. The shoulder areas are enlarged and have a trapezoidal profile, which further increases their resistance to lateral deformation. As a result, when maneuvering, the gripping properties are enhanced, and the risk of developing uneven wear is reduced.
Main features:
- a tread pattern with a high content of gripping edges provides efficiency on a wet surface;
- low tendency to hydroplaning due to the multiplicity and multidirectionality of drainage elements;
- enlarged and deformation-resistant shoulder areas increase stability when maneuvering, prevent uneven wear.
