The winter tire Matador MP-58 Silika M+S is designed for passenger cars of various classes. Additional versatility in application is provided by the balanced characteristics of this model. It provides high safety on different types of coatings - ice, slush, wet and dry asphalt. Also worth noting is the good level of comfort and low rolling resistance.
Self-locking lamellas
The tire tread contains thousands of lamellas. They are distinguished by their ability to independently fix the open position when in contact with the road surface. This provides the tire with high efficiency on slippery surfaces, and due to the ability to limit the mobility of blocks, improved stability and handling.
Multifunctional drainage grooves
The longitudinal drainage grooves have a zigzag shape. This provides them with multifunctionality. In addition to drying the contact patch, these elements are able to capture and hold snow, which achieves better traction on snowy surfaces.
Improved compound
One of the key features of the tire is reflected in its name. The tread rubber compound is more than half composed of silika. This component provides the tread with elasticity at negative temperatures, which enhances traction on cold winter roads.
Main features of the Matador MP-58 Silika M+S tire
- high performance on any winter roads due to the V-shaped tread pattern;
- reliable traction and handling on ice is provided by thousands of self-locking lamellas;
- the optimized tread profile gives the tire predictable behavior in complex road conditions;
- resistance to aquaplaning and slushplaning due to the increased number and internal volume of drainage grooves.
