The winter commercial tire Matador MPS-520 was designed for Western European countries. However, its operational characteristics proved to be so high that for some time now, our compatriots have had the opportunity to purchase it.
Increased contact patch size
A feature of this model is the increased contact patch size. This was largely achieved due to the design of the tread pattern, which contains predominantly massive blocks that are spaced a short distance apart.
Good traction on slippery roads
Despite the absence of studs, this tire is characterized by good traction on slippery winter roads. This is ensured by several factors. First and foremost, it is an elastic rubber compound at low temperatures. It is also worth noting the polygonal shape of the tread blocks and the presence in each of them of at least three self-locking lamellas.
