The German company Fulda is known in our country, first and foremost, as a manufacturer of tires for passenger cars. For some time now, it has been producing commercial models for light trucks and vans, achieving significant successes in this field. To a large extent, this is due to the summer tire Conveo Tour, which was warmly received on the market of several European countries, thanks, above all, to its high economic efficiency. This model combines relatively low cost, long service life, reliability, and increased load-carrying capacity.
4-ribbed tread pattern
The symmetrical design of the tread of this tire consists of four longitudinal ribs. Each of these elements is distinguished by massive dimensions and a seamless structure. The combination of these features gives the tire a number of important advantages. Among the most significant of these are good directional stability and stable traction properties at high speed, low rolling resistance.
Extended service life
The use of four wide longitudinal ribs of almost the same size has made it possible to significantly optimize the distribution of external pressure over the contact patch. These properties have been substantially enhanced by a carcass equipped with a double breaker made of steel cord. The presence of a very strong and rigid "base" directly under the tread leads to a significant increase in the tread's resistance to uneven wear, which increases its service life. In this regard, it is impossible not to mention the presence in the composition of the rubber mixture of a number of components that prevent abrasive wear.
Key features of the Fulda Conveo Tour tire
- four wide longitudinal ribs improve directional stability, stability of traction properties at high speed, and increase fuel efficiency;
- the reinforced design of the shoulder areas, the double breaker made of steel cord, and the wear-resistant rubber mixture significantly increase the service life of the tread.
