Summer tire for passenger cars is perfect for everyday use, especially on city roads. It is characterized by improved traction properties on wet surfaces, driving comfort, acoustic comfort, and smooth running.
The tread pattern is literally dotted with narrow slits - lamellas. Their edges are predominantly transverse, which allows the tire to demonstrate the ability to intensely brake and accelerate on wet surfaces. These same elements, providing blocks with some mobility, give the tire's ride an additional softness. Another feature is the rounded profile of the shoulder zones. This increases the stability of traction when maneuvering, provides a slightly stretched reaction to the driver's actions over time, which ensures driving comfort, especially at high speeds, relieving the need for "steering".
Main features of Nexen KX220
- an increased number of lamellas increases the intensity of acceleration and braking on wet surfaces;
- an optimized profile of the shoulder zones makes the driving process more comfortable, increases stability when maneuvering, prevents uneven wear;
- a large width and numerous drainage elements reduce the risk of aquaplaning to a minimum, even with significant tread wear
