      - Passenger Cars
      - Urban Enviroment
      Its symmetric tread pattern is specifically designed for straight line stability whilst providing excellent traction and braking in all weather conditon

    • Reduced road noise and jolting when driving over uneven surfaces
    • Excellent wear properties
    • Steering stability
    • Symmetrical tread pattern for straightness and stability at speed
    • Good traction in all weathers, in all seasons, even when braking
    Grooves on main ribs
    Silencer grooves on the main ribs allow smooth air flow to reduce road noise.
    Grooved central rib
    Tilted sipes in the center rib improves acceleration and ensures straight line stability.
    Four longitudinal grooves
    4 wide longitudinal grooves enhance water evacuation on wet roads, improving traction and reducing wet weather drift.
  • P609

      Designed For:
      High Performance Vehicles
      Urban Enviroments

      The asymmetric tread pattern increases the contact area on the outside of the tyre offering improved handling through cornering even at high speed.

      • Reduced road noise and jolting when driving over uneven surfaces
      • Excellent steering performance at speed and in wet weather conditions
      • Asymmetrical tread pattern for improved cornering
      • Good traction in all weathers, in all seasons, even when braking
       
      ‘Green' silica compound
      Green tread compound with a higher ratio of silica reduces the friction between the rubber molecules decreasing energy loss and reducing the overall rolling resistance.
      Shoulder block
      A specially designed outside shoulder reduces deformation when cornering ensuring a precise and stable driving experience.
      Anti-slip, all weather sipes
      Anti-slip all weather sipes cover the tread offering stability in all weather conditions whilst offering improved traction under acceleration and braking.
    • ECO SAVER

        Designed For:
        - SUV's and 4X4's
        - On-Road Enviroments

        Eco Saver's symmetric tread pattern is specifically designed for straight line stability whilst providing excellent traction and braking in all weather conditions.

           
        Shoulder ribs
        Improved shoulder ribs suppress uneven tread wear throughout the life of the tyre.
        Variable pitch
        The variable pitch arrangement reduces road noise and the special bead design increases the overall tyre life expectancy.
        Open grooves
        Open grooves on the shoulder improve cooling.

         

         

      • Ecolander

          Designed For:
          - SUV's & 4X4's
          - On & OFF-Road Use

          With excellent wear and steering performance in mind it's symmetric tread pattern is specifically designed for straight line stability whilst providing excellent traction and braking in all weather conditiions

        • Reduced road noise and jolting when driving over uneven surfaces
        • Excellent wear properties
        • Steering stability
        • Symmetrical tread pattern for straightness and stability at speed
        • Good traction in all weathers, in all seasons, even when braking
        Two longitudinal grooves
        Two wide longitudinal grooved effectively drain the water and ensure safety on wet roads.
        Corner cut
        Shoulder cut improves the stiffness of the tyre pattern and reduces any exceptional wear tendency's.
        Wide pattern blocks
        Wide blocks across the pattern produce excellent handling and cross-country performance paired with reinforcing ribs to provide the correct level of stiffness to maintain performance.
      • EFFIVAN

          Designed For:
          - Van Users
          - Day To Day Requirements

        The Effivan pattern has been designed with excellent wear and steering performance in min
        • Reduced road noise and jolting when driving over uneven surfaces
        • Excellent wear properties
        • Steering stability
        • Symmetrical tread pattern for straightness and stability at speed
        • Good traction in all weathers, in all seasons, even when braking
         
        Vertical grooves
        Three wide vertical grooves in the tread lead to faster water evacuation and shorter braking distances.
        Crown grooves
        Tiny Grooves on the tyre crown lower the rolling noise whilst the rigidity of the tread is better distributed reducing abnormal wear and increasing the overall mileage.
        Tread rigidity
        Scientific pattern design and low rolling noise offers a more comfortable driving experience.
