Hercules Merit Metric XSE-H

The Hercules Merit Metric XSE-H summer tire is suitable for most passenger cars due to its wide size range and for their owners due to the balance of operational properties. It is favorably distinguished by its directional stability, handling precision, and braking properties on a wet surface.

The tread pattern is designed with a directional design featuring a V-shaped arrangement of transverse hydroevacuation grooves. This guarantees high resistance to aquaplaning at high speeds. The extended transverse edges formed during this process allow for intense acceleration and deceleration even on a wet surface. The dual-monolithic rib located in the center enhances directional stability and handling precision.

Key features:

- The V-shaped arrangement of most of the water evacuating grooves minimizes the risk of aquaplaning at high speeds;
- the dual rib in the center provides handling precision and directional stability, reduces rolling resistance;
- the paired arrangement of blocks increases traction and braking efficiency on a wet surface.
