The winter studded tire Kleber Kapnor 5 is rightfully considered a pride of this renowned French tire manufacturer. This model is designed for small and medium-sized passenger cars and is available in 16 most common sizes, ranging from 175/70R13 to 215/55R16, which speaks to the excellent applicability of this tire to most popular passenger cars.
As befits a high-quality winter tire, the symmetrical directional tread pattern of this model features a rather original V-shaped design. This arrangement of tread elements has provided the tire with a number of advantages. In particular, the V-shaped tread pattern excellently distributes the external load over the contact patch, while also increasing its area. As a result, this contributes to reliable and stable traction on dry pavement, regardless of the driving mode. At the same time, traction on slippery surfaces is ensured by the numerous sharp edges formed by the large number of tread blocks that the tire's tread pattern is equipped with, the Kleber Kapnor 5. Another undeniable advantage of this model is the best acceleration and braking efficiency. It is also impossible not to note another feature inherent to the V-shaped tread pattern of this tire - reduced rolling resistance, which directly affects the fuel efficiency indicators.
In addition, this model is favorably distinguished by reliable traction on ice, which is ensured not only by the large number of studs but also by the multitude of S-shaped lamellas located on the surface of all tread elements. These lamellas, forming numerous engagement edges, provide additional traction with the icy surface.
