Gislaved EcoControl 205/70 R15 96H

Gislaved EcoControl tire — the result of fruitful work aimed at creating a reliable summer tire for the demanding market. The model embodies balanced characteristics, where high directional stability and response to steering wheel commands are organically combined with acoustic comfort and fuel efficiency.

Foundation for control and durability

At the heart lies an optimized asymmetric tread structure. Wide outer shoulder blocks with reinforcements provide stability in turns and precise feedback. The dense central zone of three longitudinal elements and a specially designed contact patch profile contribute to even pressure distribution on the road surface. This solution optimizes traction on dry asphalt, improves handling, and significantly reduces wear, increasing mileage potential.

Safety on wet roads

The key technological safety element of the model is the massive use of bidirectional 3D lamellas. Their design solves a complex of tasks:
- forms a multitude of working edges for effective cutting of the water film, increasing traction and reducing braking distance;
- due to internal transverse bridges, it preserves the structural integrity of the tread blocks, preventing their excessive bending. This maintains high carcass stiffness and stable reaction to maneuvers without sacrificing traction.

Comfort and efficiency

The rhythmic step and special geometry of the tread elements were calculated using digital modeling to minimize resonant vibrations. The result is reduced noise effects and comfortable, smooth driving at high speeds. Additionally, the reduced rolling resistance, achieved through an optimized pattern and mixture composition, contributes to improved fuel efficiency.

Main features of Gislaved EcoControl:

- reinforced asymmetric tread architecture — maximizes the contact patch for excellent directional stability, response, and wear resistance;
- provides a short braking distance on wet roads and high stability of handling without losing traction;
- special step of elements reduces vibrations and rolling noise for increased comfort.
