The Hankook Ventus RS3 Z222 is last year's novelty. It is a summer tire of the Extreme Performance class, designed for operation in sports cars. The advanced technologies used in the manufacture of this model are based on research conducted during the Japan Super GT and American Le Mans Series racing series. Participation in these competitions has undoubtedly served as the basis for creating a high-quality and durable tire.
This tire is designed for driving on roads with high-quality pavement.
The main feature of this tire is, without a doubt, its unique dual composition, which includes, first, high-quality silica that enhances grip on wet surfaces, and second, an original mixture of Racing Carbon Black, which, in turn, contributes to better handling on dry roads.
This tire is distinguished from others by its minimal rolling resistance, high wear resistance, and acoustic comfort.
Hankook Ventus RS3 Tire Tread Design
The tread pattern design, which includes a rubber compound based on Hankook Racing Carbonblack Silica Compound technology, consists of massive blocks modeled using a computer. They increase the contact area with the surface, which further improves grip and handling at high speeds. The central wide rib of the tread also contributes to smooth handling. In general, all surfaces of this tire that come into contact with the road are continuous ribs, ensuring stable straight-line movement.
Another feature of the Hankook Ventus RS3 tire is the increased area of the tread. It exceeds the standard by three percent. This undoubtedly has a positive effect on the tire's driving characteristics.
The role of water evacuation channels in this tire is performed by four deep grooves - two central and two lateral. They quickly and effectively remove water from the tread, preventing aquaplaning on wet roads.
The shoulder lugs also play a significant role. They increase transverse grip, and special triangular protrusions on them guarantee high directional stability.
An important characteristic of tires designed for high-speed driving is the absence of strong heating and, as a consequence, deformation of the tire during aggressive driving. In the Hankook Ventus RS3 Z222 tire, this danger is eliminated, as its composition includes a dual silk cord and a dual nylon cord, which prevent strong heating and deformation during movement. The compacting cushion under the tread also helps to avoid the latter.
In conclusion, it is worth saying that the Hankook RS3 tire, thanks to its high characteristics, will be an excellent choice for a summer tire for high-speed cars. It is designed specifically for sports cars, so it will behave perfectly in autocross, racing, or drifting. It should be remembered that this is a summer tire and is not intended for operation in winter conditions, let alone the harsh conditions of the Russian winter.
Distinctive Features of the High-Speed Summer Tire Hankook Ventus RS3 Z222
- Stylish design: flame tongues are tattooed on the tread.
- Special composition of the rubber mixture, from which the tread is made, developed based on Racing Carbonblack Silica Compound technology. The presence of silica contributes to excellent grip on wet roads. And thanks to the unique mixture of Racing Carbon Black, grip on dry surfaces increases.
- Two wide steel brackets included in the tire design are reinforced with nylon, which increased its strength and stability when driving at high speeds, and a two-layer polyester cord in the side parts minimizes damage that the tire can receive during movement, as well as increases handling during turns.
- The increased tread area by three percent contributes to even better handling on the road.
- The shoulder lugs increase transverse grip.
- The central and lateral deep grooves effectively remove water from the tread, minimizing the risk of skidding on wet surfaces.
- Hankook Ventus RS3 Z222 is designed for sports cars and will be perfect for autocross or drifting.
