Summer tire Toyo Tranpath A14 for crossovers is included in the primary equipment of Nissan X-Trail, Toyota Rav 4. It is characterized by reliable coupling on wet pavement, efficiency when braking, acoustic comfort, and high mileage.
The symmetrical tread pattern is made in an S-shaped design. The modular arrangement of the blocks provides the formation of elongated edges, which not only increase the traction and braking force but also allow for effective control. The tread blocks are arranged with an offset relative to each other. This made it possible to increase their number and, together with it, the area of the contact patch, which, in combination with the optimized tread profile, has a positive effect on the manageability and wear resistance of the tire. In addition, this solution significantly reduces the risk of resonance noise and vibration, and, as a consequence, increases acoustic comfort, especially on "rough" asphalt.
The sidewalls of the tire near the tread have a ribbed profile. It reduces the risk of mechanical damage when touching a curbstone. The operational resource is further increased due to the operational properties of the rubber compound. It is characterized by increased resistance to abrasive wear and cuts.
Key features of Toyo Tranpath A14
- S-shaped design of the tread pattern increases traction on wet pavement, prevents uneven wear;
- optimized arrangement and shape of blocks increase the contact patch, reduce rolling resistance, and slow down tread wear;
- a ribbed profile of the sidewalls protects this part of the tire from damage when touching a curb.
