The Nankang SN1 is a winter model that stands out for its comfort and quietness while driving. This tire was developed with the participation of highly qualified specialists from the company Yokohama (Japan). The tire has a unique lamination system that provides excellent braking characteristics when driving on rolled snow and ice.
It has excellent braking parameters, comparable to braking on a studded tire Nankang SN-1. Increased traction on winter roads is due to the microporous composition of the new generation rubber. The new "quad-form" edge of the block allowed increasing the depth of penetration of the tread blocks into the snow, which increased traction on snow. Longitudinal grooves provide excellent stability of the car on dry road surface, while the tire has increased wear resistance and become low-noise. Many drivers note excellent traction with icy road surface.
Main features of the Nankang SN-1 model
- reinforced lamellas with a zigzag shape allow more effective "gripping" of the icy road;
- three-dimensional lamellas strengthen the rigidity of the tread, while improving maneuverability on icy surfaces;
- lateral vertical lamellas prevent skidding under the action of centrifugal force when driving through a turn on an icy road surface;
- the lateral "step" structure of the tire enhances the "grip" properties of the tire when moving on a snowy road surface;
- the displacement of small neighboring blocks increases the receptivity when moving on a slippery road surface;
- the tread design, which consists of square blocks, improves the car's handling;
- the unique quartz shape and "step" shape of the sidewall enhance resistance to aquaplaning, increasing the car's maneuverability and stability;
- 28% of the contact patch area is made up of grooves, which provide an optimal ratio: traction force / friction force with the road surface.
