This model, which became the successor to the Falken Eurowinter HS435, was also developed using computer modeling and produced using the latest technology in the field of automotive tires, with subsequent electronic quality control. All this in combination contributed to the fact that this tire has excellent operational characteristics and provides a high level of comfort while driving.
The main distinguishing feature of this model is that silica was used in the composition of the rubber mixture that makes up the tread. It provides excellent traction characteristics on any winter road, including those covered with wet snow or ice. In addition, the original composition of the rubber mixture gives the tire greater elasticity, thanks to which it does not freeze, preserving all its characteristics even at the lowest temperatures. This feature of the tire also provides its high wear resistance.
The tread pattern design has a directional character, which allows the tire to literally grip the road surface. Each tread block, in addition, is covered with wavy lamellas, which further enhance traction and improve handling in any operating conditions.
High directional stability during straight-line movement is provided by the central rib, which consists of two rows of blocks, as if alternating with each other.
Of course, an important characteristic for any winter tire is resistance to aquaplaning and slushplaning. In the Falken EUrowinter HS437 model, this is achieved thanks to a system of four annular longitudinal grooves: two straight ones are located in the shoulder areas of the tread, and two zigzag ones are in its central part. They perfectly remove water, dirt, and wet snow from the contact patch with the road surface. In addition, there are also numerous longitudinal channels in the tread that allow the tire to self-clean.
In conclusion, it should be said that this tire model is perfect for use in urban areas during the winter season. It provides high comfort while driving in any conditions.
Distinctive features of the Falken Eurowinter HS435 tire
- Falken Eurowinter HS437 is a radial non-studded winter tire of the new generation for passenger cars.
- The tire was developed using computer modeling.
- The tread pattern design is directional, providing excellent traction with the road surface.
- The wavy lamellas that cover the tire's tread enhance its traction characteristics.
- The original rubber mixture that makes up the tread contains silica, which improves the tire's traction characteristics, extends its service life, and also does not allow it to freeze at low temperatures, preserving its elasticity.
- The central rib of the tire provides high directional stability during straight-line movement.
- The tread structure contributes to a significant reduction in braking and acceleration distances.
- Protection against aquaplaning and slushplaning is ensured by a system of four longitudinal annular grooves, two of which (straight) are located in the shoulder areas of the tread, and the other two (zigzag) are in its central zone. In addition, water, dirt, and wet snow are also better removed with the help of longitudinal grooves in the shoulder areas.
