Pirelli P400 Touring – is an all-season tire that stands out for its increased service life. According to the manufacturer, the model is guaranteed to travel 70,000 miles, and with gentle use, even more. In addition, the tire provides good handling, maneuvering accuracy, and reliable traction characteristics throughout the year.
The basis for the model was a special compound, which includes many synthetic components. They are selected in such a way as to minimize wear and maintain the effectiveness of traction over many seasons. This is largely ensured by silicon-containing elements, which contribute to maintaining the optimal level of compound elasticity over a wide temperature range.
The tread is represented by two central ring-shaped ribs, each of which has pronounced segmentation and is supplemented by a series of lamellas. On the one hand, such a structure allows for improved handling, making it more accurate, and on the other hand, it stabilizes the vehicle during straight-line movement, minimizing lateral deviations. A feature of the shoulder and lateral zone is the use of Computer-Aided Design technology. Due to this, the level of driving comfort has been significantly improved and overall handling has been improved.
The presence of three central channels, as well as a network of smaller grooves and notches, guarantees the rapid drainage of the contact area and maintaining the effectiveness of traction. This factor has been reflected in the reduction of the braking distance and optimization of acceleration characteristics.
The main features of Pirelli P400 Touring:
- the breadth of the scope of application due to the variability of the size range;
- versatility of use in any period of the year;
- resistance to lateral deviations and ease of maneuvering due to the pronounced rib structure of the central zone;
- numerous engagement surfaces created by block structures provide a high degree of traction, reducing the braking distance and improving acceleration characteristics
