The Viking Stop C winter tire is designed for compact passenger cars. It is offered in two versions - with studs or without them. In the latter case, the possibility of installing steel elements is preserved due to the presence of mounting seats. On any slippery surface, it stands out for its stability of coupling properties and braking efficiency.
The tread pattern is distinguished by an abundance of coupling edges. The edges formed by the blocks provide efficiency on snow, and the sinusoidal lamellas - on ice and wet surfaces. The tread elements located in the shoulder areas are connected by longitudinal "bridges". This solution significantly increases stability and steering accuracy during maneuvering, reduces the risk of uneven wear. The multi-step arrangement of the blocks and the optimized tread profile increase the contact patch and, with it, the traction-coupling properties on dry surfaces, giving them stability when changing direction.
Main features:
- the unidirectional edges of the blocks provide efficiency on snow, and the lamellas - on ice;
- rigid "bridges" between the shoulder blocks increase directional stability and steering accuracy, prevent uneven wear;
- the multi-step arrangement of the blocks and the optimization of the tread profile increase the contact patch, reduce wear and noise during movement.
