Passenger summer tire Michelin HydroEdge is specially designed for use on minivans, pickups, and large sedans that operate in harsh conditions. This model will allow you to travel long distances without worrying and provide minimal fuel consumption while driving. The HydroEdge marking means that the tire has a minimal emission of harmful substances into the atmosphere and increased economy. According to the manufacturer, the guaranteed mileage of this model is 150,000 kilometers. In its category, this model has an optimal balance of quality, mileage, and cost.
Arrow-shaped tread pattern
An arrow-shaped directional tread pattern was used to achieve the best driving characteristics. This made it possible to significantly reduce the braking distance and increase traction on any road surface. The central row of blocks of the Michelin HydroEdge provides confident directional stability and a quick response to steering wheel turns. The blocks located in the shoulder area increase stability when cornering and prevent possible damage and punctures that often occur when driving on poor road surfaces. A large number of lamellas of various shapes made it possible to reduce the noise effect when driving, increasing the comfort of long-distance travel. Two wide grooves in the central zone and a large number of cuts quickly remove water and dirt from the contact zone, minimizing the possibility of aquaplaning.
Now you will be able to fully control the management of the car in any weather. The combination of a large number of lamellas and sharp edges of the tread blocks provides increased passability when driving on any road surface, excluding the possibility of wheel slippage. The unique Michelin Durablack technology during the entire period of tire operation allows it to maintain its rich black color, which has made the tire very popular among tuning enthusiasts.
Reinforced carcass
When driving long distances, the tire is constantly subjected to increased loads, which become the cause of frequent damage and punctures. To avoid this, a reinforced carcass made of durable polyester with double steel belts was used in this model. Due to this, the tire did not lose its elasticity, but gained increased resistance to possible damage. According to available statistics, the mileage of this model is 54,000 kilometers more than that of other tires in this segment. At the same time, the tire has a minimal percentage of lateral damage and punctures.
The use of the unique EnergySaver Construction technology made it possible to achieve minimal rolling resistance, which ensured increased fuel savings while driving.
The use of a large amount of silica in the rubber mixture strengthened the grip on the wet road surface.
Main features of Michelin HydroEdge
- an increased mileage of 54,000 kilometers was achieved due to the use of the unique MaxTouch Construction technology, which created an optimal contact zone and evenly distributed the braking and acceleration forces;
- increased by 14% braking characteristics were achieved as a result of the application of a new rubber mixture with an increased amount of silica and a special system of lamellas;
- increased environmental and economic indicators are provided by the optimized tread pattern and the use of the latest materials in production.
