The all-season tire Nexen AS-HP01 is designed for daily use in any weather conditions. It is distinguished by improved traction and handling comfort on wet and snowy roads, braking efficiency, as well as fuel economy and wear resistance.
The directional tread pattern is a combination of a large number of blocks. In the central part, the elements, due to partial overlap, form a virtually continuous very wide longitudinal rib, which improves traction and handling at high speeds, reducing wear and fuel consumption. The elongated Y-shaped edges formed by them provide stable traction properties on wet and snowy roads. Another feature of the pattern is the presence of massive blocks with a profile at the edges, which further increases their resistance to deformation. These elements improve the accuracy of handling and stability of traction in turns, making it easier to control the vehicle during maneuvering. The shoulder blocks significantly increase the tire's mileage, slowing down the process of its abrasive wear by making it more even.
Key features of Nexen AS-HP01:
- directional tread pattern with Y-shaped arrangement of most traction edges provides stability and excellent traction on wet and snowy roads;
- optimized profile and massiveness of shoulder blocks improve handling and course stability at high speeds and during maneuvering, preventing rapid wear of the tread;
- enlarged and intersecting grooves provide reliable handling in bad weather conditions;
- improved rubber compound, which retains elasticity at negative temperatures, enhances traction on any slippery surfaces, while remaining resistant to abrasive wear, cracking and punctures.
