The summer tire Hankook H436 Kinergy GT is designed with consideration of the specific road conditions of North America. The operational properties are selected in such a way as to provide a high level of comfort. In addition, the model is distinguished by a low tendency to aquaplaning and course stability at high speed.
The tread pattern has a non-directional symmetrical arrangement of elements and is characterized by the presence of a large number of narrow transverse grooves. This increases the intensity of acceleration and deceleration on a wet surface. Resistance to aquaplaning is achieved due to the increased width of longitudinal water-draining elements in the central part. The tread profile is optimized, which increases the contact patch and ensures its stability during maneuvering. This improves traction and reduces wear.
Key features:
- an increased number of lamellas improves longitudinal traction on a wet surface;
- a stepped profile of the vertical walls of blocks in the shoulder zones improves stability during maneuvering;
- an increased contact patch and wear resistance due to the optimization of the tread profile.
