The Ovation VI-816 summer tire is designed for use on asphalt roads with any road surface quality. It is characterized by reliable traction on wet surfaces, acoustic comfort, wear resistance, and fuel efficiency.
The tire's tread has a profile that has been optimized to maximize the contact patch with the road, maintaining its area and shape even during dynamic maneuvers. This significantly simplifies the vehicle handling process due to substantially higher traction stability. This solution significantly reduces the rate of tread wear, increasing the tire's mileage. Efficiency on wet surfaces is maintained due to the presence of numerous lamellas, narrow slits creating hundreds of additional sharp edges that easily penetrate the water film on the road surface. It is worth noting the increased volume of longitudinal grooves, which can divert almost any amount of excess moisture from under the tire. An important feature is the use of an optimized compound. It is characterized by the ability to remain elastic at low temperatures, which improves traction on wet surfaces, along with increased strength against tearing and stretching, giving the tread resistance to abrasive wear.
Key features of Ovation VI-816:
- optimized tread profile provides ease of handling, increasing traction stability in any driving mode, reducing wear and noise;
- a large number of lamellas and transverse grooves increase the effectiveness of the tread when braking on wet surfaces;
- improved rubber compound, enhancing traction in rainy conditions, preventing rapid tread wear
