The winter tire Nexen Winguard WinSpike WH62-190 is suitable for most popular passenger cars today. It is characterized by improved handling and braking efficiency on icy and snowy surfaces. In any conditions, it is characterized by stable coupling properties and a high level of ride and acoustic comfort.
Stability and predictability in any situation
The tread pattern is made in a directed symmetrical design. The key element is a massive arrow-shaped rib in the middle. The large size and numerous "branches" provide this element with high resistance to deformation. When driving, this feature allows for very fast and accurate transmission of multidirectional acceleration forces to the steering wheel. As a result, the car handling process is significantly simplified, especially in complex situations. Additionally, this central rib design significantly reduces rolling resistance and wear, increasing the efficiency of traction on slippery surfaces.
Braking efficiency
The central part is separated from the shoulder zones by inclined zigzag grooves. Due to their shape and location, these elements form high and numerous edges. They effectively fight against slipping on icy and snowy surfaces when braking.
Improved efficiency on wet and snowy surfaces
The tread pattern elements are arranged so that the contact patch constantly has many very long edges, inclined at a large angle. The increased height of these elements and the width of the drainage grooves allow the tire to effectively grip the wet and snowy surface, providing stable handling in such conditions.
Ice grip
In addition to numerous lamellas, the tire's grip on ice is ensured by spikes. Their number has been increased compared to the previous model. At the same time, the spikes are arranged so that when driving, they form 12 longitudinal ribs, guaranteeing reliability on surfaces with an extremely low coefficient of friction.
Optimized carcass
The tire carcass uses two "signature" developments of this brand - OCCS and OBCS. Both solutions are high-tech and provide the optimality of the profile shape of the tread part under the constant influence of multidirectional acceleration forces. This significantly increases the stability of the coupling properties, speed, and accuracy of handling, especially when driving at high speeds.
Main features of Nexen Winguard WinSpike WH62-190
