The Nexen SB700A summer tire is designed for compact passenger cars. In urban conditions, it stands out for its increased efficiency due to its good traction properties and shorter braking distance on wet pavement.
The tread design features enlarged element sizes. This significantly increases the area of the zone in contact with the road surface, improving traction on dry pavement. In adverse weather conditions, performance is ensured by the edges of both the blocks and the slotted lamellae. Most of them are arranged transversely, which gives the tire high traction and a shorter braking distance on wet pavement. It is worth noting the presence of diagonal slots in the shoulder areas. These elements, forming a so-called "edge" effect, additionally enhance stability during maneuvering.
