Winter Tyre Benefits
There are a number of advantages to fitting winter tyres to your vehicle and below are but a few. Dunlops winter tyre range is designed with performance in mind regardless of what mother nature may throw at you.
Some of the technologies that are incorporated within these tyres and their benefits are explained below:
Exceptional grip at low temperaturesFunctional Polymers used within the tyres materials produce enhanced performance characteristics at low temperatures, ensuring excellent surface contact with the road when winter temperatures plummet. | Improved surface contactTwo blades acting in harmony assist in increasing the surface area of the tyre which is in contact with the road. Particularly effective in providing traction in icy conditions and snow. |
Superb cornering even in snow4D sipes derived from the award winning 3D Sipe system sees the tread separated into a number of blocks which increase friction as well as stability during cornering. Offers superb lateral grip in snow. | Advanced snow handling‘V’ Shaped grooves in conjunction with the treads basic grooves create a fine network which collects snow in the tread. This snow on snow contact provides superior traction and grip. |
Reduced aqua planing riskDesigned for those cold wet morning drives, the directional tread design forcing the water between the grooves preventing it collecting between the tyre and road surface, to reduce the chance of aqua planing. | Superb water displacementA number of hydro paddles built into the tyres tread aid in quickly and quietly dispersing the water from the tyre to ensure you have an enjoyable driving experience even when its wet and miserable. |
