Grenlander Kingpro One tire is a summer model where the key criteria are acoustic comfort, fuel efficiency, and predictable safety on wet roads. Its construction is a carefully balanced system where each element is focused on reducing operating costs and increasing comfort without compromising key traction characteristics.
Achieving a quiet ride is a complex task. Here it is solved through two parallel technologies:
- closed shoulder zones - a solid outer edge of the tread blocks the exit of sound waves generated in the contact patch to the outside, significantly reducing the level of external noise and creating the effect of a quiet cabin;
- variable block pitch profile - computer modeling allowed creating a pattern where groups of blocks have different sizes and distances between them.
Efficiency in rainy weather is ensured by a combination of drainage architecture and mixture composition. The system of four wide longitudinal grooves quickly and directedly removes large amounts of water from the central contact zone, actively counteracting aquaplaning.
Continuous ribs provide excellent directional stability and steering accuracy at high speeds. Micro-lamellae integrated into them add flexibility to the edges, reducing the braking distance on wet asphalt due to an increase in the number of active edges.
Low rolling resistance is achieved through the use of a silicone-organic compound and optimization of the deformation characteristics of the carcass. This directly reduces fuel consumption. The tuned stiffness of the tread ribs, the depth and angle of the transverse grooves and lamellae provide even pressure in the contact patch. This prevents premature local wear, significantly increasing the overall mileage.
