The Ceat Formula summer tire is noticeably different from most similar tires. First of all, it's an asymmetric tread pattern with a unique design. At the same time, the unusual appearance in no way worsens the main working characteristics of the tire, which, for its very attractive cost, are at a very high level.
Original design of the central part of the tread
A significant part of the original design of the asymmetric directional tread pattern is provided by the unusual structure of the central part. It is distinguished by very massive dimensions and a composite structure containing many sheet-like blocks. This design provides the Ceat Formula tire with a number of important advantages. First of all, it's very high accuracy and lightning-fast response to even the smallest turns of the steering wheel. Also, it's impossible not to notice the excellent directional stability and low rolling resistance, which are achieved due to the resistance of the central longitudinal rib to dynamic deformation.
Increased stability in turns
In turn, the shoulder areas of the tread differ from the central part with a more restrained design. Its characteristic features are massive dimensions and the presence of a large number of engagement edges, which are formed by numerous rectangular blocks and straight lamellas. At the same time, they are mostly arranged transversely. This design feature provides the tire with a short braking distance, especially on wet roads, as well as excellent acceleration performance.
It's also worth noting the very high resistance of this part of the tread to dynamic deformation. Thanks to this, the tire demonstrates excellent resistance to lateral skidding, which allows for more confident execution of sharp maneuvers and passage of turns. In addition, such a design of the shoulder areas contributes to the optimization of the distribution of external pressure over the contact patch, which, in turn, increases the resistance of the tread to uneven wear, thereby extending the life of the tire.
Main features of the Ceat Formula tire
- a unique design of the asymmetric directional tread pattern provides the tire with excellent performance regardless of road and weather conditions;
- good resistance to aquaplaning due to two longitudinal drainage grooves, as well as a large number of transverse channels;
- the reinforced design of the shoulder areas, containing many transverse blocks, improves stability during maneuvering, stability during acceleration and braking, as well as resistance to uneven wear.
