The Toyo Observe GSI3 winter tire stands out for its extensive applicability. The range of sizes includes options not only for passenger cars, but also for crossovers. It is distinguished by stability in extreme climatic conditions.
The tread of the tire is made from a rubber compound with an original composition for its category. In addition to the increased content of silicon dioxide, it is distinguished by the presence of such an exotic material as walnut shell. In the form of ultra-fine particles, this component significantly increases traction on icy surfaces.
The tread pattern has a "Scandinavian" design with a V-shaped arrangement of grooves. This scheme guarantees high resistance to aquaplaning and slushplaning, improves directional stability. The solid rib in the middle gives the steering precision, reduces rolling resistance. The shoulder blocks have a serrated edge shape, which enhances the traction properties on snow. The numerous protrusions located on their outer side facilitate exit from the rut.
The entire tread is dotted with 3D lamellas. The thousands of sharp edges formed by them increase the traction force and braking efficiency on smooth slippery surfaces, ensuring stability of traction properties on them.
Key features:
- a wide range of sizes includes options for crossovers;
- a wide, arrow-shaped rib in the middle increases steering precision and directional stability, reduces rolling resistance;
- a serrated shape of the transverse edges of the shoulder blocks improves traction on snow, and the vertical protrusions on their outer side facilitate exit from the rut;
- the inclined arrangement and large width of the drainage grooves reduce the risk of aquaplaning and slushplaning.
