The Sincera SN-828 tire is a bright representative of the model line of the well-known Falken brand (Japanese company Ohtsu Tire and Rubber Co.).
Products of Japanese production – and this is like an axiom – have always been valued for their quality. As for the Falken Sincera SN-828 model, it cannot be attributed to low-quality products, especially considering the fact that the manufacturer is part of the Sumitomo Rubber Industries industrial conglomerate, which produces the famous Dunlop and Goodyear tires.
The popularity of the SN-828 among Russian car enthusiasts is quite high, and this is logical, since in terms of price accessibility (cost-quality ratio), the model is classified as budget, and in terms of quality, the tire withstands tough competition with more expensive products. The popularity of the model is also evidenced by the large assortment of tire sizes in the model range — more than 20.
The non-traditional thinking of Japanese designers always impresses the imagination, and in this regard, the Falken Sincera SN-828 tire is no exception. The approach of the developers to the design of the tread is particularly interesting, which allows significantly increasing the service life of the tire. And here everything depends only on the owner's diligence. Special visual control sensors, so-called "Falken eyes", prompt when it is necessary to change the tires (rearrange from one side to the other). These "eyes" are special protrusions-bumps on the tread blocks. If the tire is new, the sensors are round, and when the tread wear reaches 1/3, they become square. In this case, it is recommended to carry out the rearrangement. Ultimately, the bumps completely disappear, which indicates the end of the recommended service life.
The Japanese have always been distinguished by their careful attitude to raw materials and environmental safety of the products. The use of silicone rubbers and careful control of the content of carcinogenic aromatic compounds in the composition of raw materials fully guarantee a high level of environmental safety. Silicone, in addition, effectively "works" in terms of resistance to skidding on wet road sections.
