Viking Snowtech II – an original winter tire designed for a wide range of passenger cars from various manufacturers. The model stands out for its developed block structure and extensive network of lamellas, which form an improved edge effect, resulting in reduced braking distance and optimized acceleration characteristics.
The tire is designed to provide comfortable movement in the city and on the highway. For this, the central zone of the tread is equipped with a solid rib, which acts as a steering element, increasing the accuracy of control and making the vehicle more maneuverable. Its actions are complemented by wedge-shaped blocks located in the middle zone, which stabilize the vehicle during high-speed driving, preventing lateral displacement. Developed blocks of the open type in the "shoulder" area improve maneuverability, maintaining control accuracy. An important addition that allows increasing the stability of the contact patch on slippery sections is the system of three-dimensional lamellas. Having an original shape and the ability to self-block under load, they significantly increase the edge effect, thus significantly increasing the efficiency of acceleration and braking characteristics.
Another aspect that has a direct impact on the tire's performance is the compound. The manufacturer included in its composition not only a significant percentage of "silica" but also a number of polymer components. This "cocktail" provides a high degree of preservation of elasticity properties at low temperatures. In addition, it counteracts rapid wear when driving on clean asphalt, increasing the tire's service life.
Key Features of Viking Snowtech II:
- a universal winter tire that can be installed on a wide range of models from various manufacturers;
- a high level of stability in driving characteristics due to the use of a special compound;
- confident grip, both on snowy roads and during ice, thanks to the developed edge effect created by an extensive network of lamellas and numerous wedge-shaped blocks.
