The summer tire Nexen N'PRIZ SH9i is designed for compact car owners who value a combination of stability, ease of handling in complex road conditions, and a comfortable, quiet, and smooth ride.
A distinctive feature of the tread pattern is the use of "three-dimensional" lamellas. Narrow slits with walls in three planes allow for intense acceleration and deceleration at a low coefficient of friction with the road surface. The risk of aquaplaning is minimal due to the increased size of the longitudinal water drainage grooves. On a dry surface, stability is ensured by an optimized tread profile and larger sizes of its pattern elements. These same features reduce the level of abrasive impact on the tire.
Main features:
- 3D lamellas improve longitudinal traction on wet surfaces;
- increased volume of longitudinal water drainage grooves improves resistance to aquaplaning;
- optimized profile and tread pattern increase the contact patch and reduce wear.
