One of the key features of the Matador MP-7 passenger tire is the combination of versatility and attractive cost. This model provides a high level of safety on both summer and winter roads, being designed for operation throughout the year.
Saw-toothed tread ribs in the center
A significant part of the advantages of this model is due to the fact that its tread contains elements that perform several functions at once. One of them is the central longitudinal rib. In addition to its solid construction, it is distinguished by the presence of numerous saw-toothed notches, which allow it to perform several functions at once. The main one is to ensure stability and stability of behavior when driving at high speed. In turn, the aforementioned saw-toothed elements prevent the occurrence of resonant noises, which has a positive effect on acoustic comfort.
Increased number of traction edges
The tread pattern of this tire contains a sufficient number of traction edges. All of them are formed by numerous tread blocks located in both the central part and the shoulder zones. At the same time, when in contact, they are arranged in such a way as to provide the tire with maximum longitudinal traction properties. They are especially pronounced on snow, which is due to the significant distance between the blocks.
Main features of the Matador MP-7 tire
- the saw-toothed shape gives the central tread rib the ability to perform a number of other functions in addition to ensuring directional stability and handling, reducing noise levels;
- the increased number of traction edges in combination with a large distance between blocks improves traction on slippery surfaces;
- the large width and transverse arrangement of blocks in the shoulder zones improve traction and stability during maneuvering and braking;
- the significant width of the drainage grooves allows the tread to be effectively cleaned of heavy snow masses, which provides increased resistance to slushplaning.
