The summer tire Hercules Raptis R-T5 is installed on compact and medium-sized passenger cars. It is characterized by a quiet and smooth ride even on uneven roads, stable coupling properties on wet pavement, and comfort while driving.
The tread part of the tire is made from a special compound. The unique composition prevents the tire from heating up during prolonged high-speed driving, which reduces rolling resistance and increases its lifespan. It is also worth noting the presence of orange peel oil in the composition. This component increases the elasticity of the tread at low temperatures, which further improves traction on wet pavement. The tread pattern is distinguished by an abundance of water-dispelling elements. The grooves are arranged in different directions, which ensures high resistance to aquaplaning. The sidewalls have an optimized design that allows them to absorb vibrations and other shock effects, which improves acoustic comfort and gives the tire an additional softness.
Key features:
- special rubber compound reduces rolling resistance and increases lifespan on poor roads;
- increased number of drainage elements provides high resistance to aquaplaning;
- optimized sidewall design, absorbing vibrations from tire rolling, improves acoustic comfort inside the vehicle cabin.
