The Yokohama Sport A/S Plus summer tire is designed for use in passenger vehicles with enhanced dynamic characteristics. It stands out for its athletic stability and precision in cornering, ability to brake and accelerate intensively on wet surfaces, along with increased resistance to wear and "signature" sidewall strength.
The asymmetric tread pattern features enlarged shoulder areas composed of massive blocks. This enhances stability and precision in cornering. The optimized sidewall design further improves handling, providing clear feedback on the steering wheel.
Another important feature is the use of the HS-2 compound. In addition to silica, it contains special polymers that make the tread even more elastic at low temperatures, which increases the effectiveness of braking on wet surfaces. The presence of lamellas with wavy edges and Z-shaped grooves in the tread pattern provides reliable handling in such conditions, preventing wheel slippage even in the most unfavorable weather conditions. A significant advantage of the HS-2 compound is a substantial increase in tread resistance to abrasive wear, punctures, and tears.
Key features of Yokohama Sport A/S Plus
- optimized tread profile with a wide flat surface in the central part and rounded edges improves traction, simplifies handling, and reduces wear;
- HS-2 compound with special polymers in the composition enhances traction on wet surfaces, prevents rapid tire wear, and reduces the risk of punctures and tears;
- 4-stage arrangement of tread elements reduces noise, providing additional smoothness of the ride
