Firemax FM501 285/70 R17 121/118S

Firemax FM501 – a tire for crossovers and SUVs that can be used at any time of the year. The model is distinguished by its resistance to aquaplaning, fast self-cleaning, as well as a high level of reliability.

The rubber compound is represented by a composition containing silica. It is this component that largely determines the tire's ability to adapt to the surrounding temperature, maintaining elasticity at the same level. This achieves good traction.

The tread pattern is asymmetric, with a pronounced block structure. The central part is occupied by a longitudinal rib, divided by lightning-shaped transverse grooves. It helps to maintain directional stability and provides steering sensitivity. On either side of it, there are ribs represented by diagonal blocks. They increase traction, improve grip on dry and wet road surfaces, and also contribute to the rapid evacuation of water, mud, and snow masses. In addition to lamellas, multi-stage elements were used in them, which allowed significantly improving traction on loose snow and soil.

For stability during maneuvering, as well as increasing traction and adhesion properties, the shoulder area is responsible for the off-road grip. They are fairly massive, so they well hold the weight of the vehicle and also protect against various mechanical impacts.

Key features of Firemax FM501

- improved traction and adhesion performance due to the pronounced block structure;
- good self-cleaning level;
- possibility of operation on both asphalt and soil.
