Description Nokian W+
The Nokian W+ winter tire is designed for a wide range of passenger cars. It is recommended by the manufacturer for use in areas with so-called "European winters". The model is distinguished by improved traction properties on wet surfaces and rolled snow.
The tread pattern has a directional design with a characteristic arrow-shaped rib in the middle, typical of this manufacturer's winter tires. This element increases stability and steering precision at high speeds, as well as traction properties on slippery surfaces. The blocks located nearby, having elongated transverse edges, allow for effective implementation of traction and intense braking on snow. On surfaces with a very low coefficient of friction, stability is ensured by numerous lamellas and increased elasticity of the rubber compound based on natural rubber and silicon dioxide.
Main features:
- the arrow-shaped rib in the middle improves steering precision and course stability at high speeds, traction properties on slippery surfaces, reduces rolling resistance and wear;
- elongated transverse edges of blocks provide excellent traction on snow;
- numerous lamellas and "winter" rubber compound increase the "grip" of the tire on rolled snow and wet pavement.
