The Powertrac Tourstar summer tire has handling qualities that fully meet the requirements of drivers who prefer to drive their cars over long distances. The tire is designed for operation with prolonged movement at high speed. In such conditions, it demonstrates stability of coupling properties, acoustic comfort, long service life and reliability.
The tread pattern, due to the high density of element placement, has a large useful area. This increases the contact patch, improving traction on dry pavement. A significant part of the edges that the tire grips the wet road surface is formed by lamellas. Narrow slits increase resistance to wear and acoustic comfort. Voluminous longitudinal drainage grooves are supplemented by large water-repelling elements in the shoulder areas. This significantly reduces the risk of aquaplaning, especially when maneuvering.
Key features of Powertrac Tourstar
- a tread pattern with numerous lamellas is effective on wet pavement;
- large drainage grooves in the shoulder areas reduce the risk of hydroplaning when maneuvering;
- an optimized profile of the tread part of the tread and a large useful area of its pattern increase the contact patch.
