Description Yokohama AVS dB V551
The Yokohama AVS dB V551 summer tire is designed for dynamic versions of passenger cars. It differs from other tires in the Ultra High Performance category of the Japanese brand in its improved fuel efficiency, acoustic comfort, and increased mileage while maintaining sporty handling and reliability of grip at high speeds.
A characteristic feature of the tread pattern is the enormous width of the longitudinal grooves. This minimizes the risk of hydroplaning even at very high speeds. In such conditions, the tire retains the ability to accelerate and brake intensively, maintaining stability during active maneuvering. This is due to the increased density of the lamellas, which form a multitude of sharp edges. The applied rubber mixture composition based on natural rubber and "silica" retains elasticity at low temperatures, which significantly enhances grip on wet surfaces.
Key features of the Yokohama AVS dB V551
- elastic rubber mixture, increased number of lamellas improve traction properties on wet surfaces;
- "multi-step" arrangement of tread elements reduces noise and vibrations;
- special profile shape, prevalence of massive elements in its pattern ensures reliable grip and sporty handling.
