Firestone Precision Touring – a model for all-season operation, which stands out for its improved adaptability to various weather conditions. The tire guarantees precise handling, maneuverability, and an extended service life, achieved through the use of advanced modeling methods and high-quality raw materials. The latter is a special compound that contains a multitude of polymeric components. Their combination, in conjunction with silica, ensures not only the preservation of stable traction but also reduces wear.
The five-rib tread of the non-directional type is equipped with a large number of block structures, grooves, and lamellas. Their combination allowed forming a huge number of hooks, increasing the edge effect. This reflected on the strength of fixing the contact zone, both on ice and snowy sections. Due to the pronounced ribbing, high stability of passing straight sections is ensured with minimal lateral deviations. And the multi-block shoulder areas guarantee maintaining vehicle controllability during maneuvering.
The extensive system of drainage and air channels is also of great importance. With its help, the contact area is cleaned, and the temperature regime is optimized when driving on hot asphalt. Thus, a high level of universality and stability of working characteristics is achieved.
Key features of Firestone Precision Touring:
- all-season operation on a wide range of passenger cars;
- a multi-block structure with pronounced ribbing contributes to the preservation of traction and grip in any road conditions;
- a wear-resistant compound reinforced with silica and polymeric components;
- a high level of stability on winter roads due to the developed edge effect.
