Vredestein Snowtrac 3 are winter tyres of the premium class. Vredestein company’ product Snowtrac 3 is designed for low- and mid-capacity engines of passenger cars such as, for example, Volkswagen Polo or Mazda 3. Safety and driving’ precision were highly important issues in the construction process of Vredestein Snowtrac 3 tyre. In comparison to its’ predecessors, Snowtrac and Snowtrac 2, the tyre’s performance is to be much better. This is the result of the introduction of the new compound’ composition in the production of the tread.
Vredestein Snowtrac 3 tyre tread’ profile was designed in such a way as to guarantee optimal adhesion to the road bed in winter conditions – on the wet and snowy surfaces. The tyre contains technologically’ advanced, multi-gradual, longitudinal groove arranged crosswise to the driving direction. Owing to the application of open grooves, Vredestein Snowtrac 3 has to attain maximum ability to drain off the water and slush from under the tyre. This effect is intensified by the rounded tyre’s tread. All of the above has to minimise the risk of snowplaning and splush-planing. What is more, additional, deepened cuttings have been used inside each of the grooves, in order to ensure regular tread wear. Its’ changeable depth has to ensure optimal pressure’ transfer and also maintenance of the tyre’s properties despite tread wear. Silica-polymer compound- Optimum Silica & Polymer Processing (OS&PP) has been adapted in the construction of Vredestein Snowtrac 3. It has to guarantee good adhesion on the dry but, first of all, on the wet and snowy surface. Concerning the driving’ comfort, Vredestein Snowtrac 3 tyre is really quiet owing to the use of Centre Shift system which is based on the left and right profile’ side shift viewing the middle tyre’s belt. Such a solution also has to increase the passive safety.
Vredestein Snowtrac 3 tyre works perfectly in winter conditions, even in the mountaineous terrain. It is, therefore, recommended for the drivers who often drive on hard routes in winter.
Vredestein Snowtrac 3 is the winter tyre of the premium class. Vredestein company’ product Snowtrac 3 is designed for low- and high-capacity engines of passenger cars.
