Nokian WR Snowproof is a guarantee of safety even under the most demanding conditions. The Finnish premium brand is considered to be an expert in snow driving, which it confirms in its next design. WR Snowproof is based on the Alpine Sense Grip technology that gives you more control over your vehicle than ever before.
Innovativeness in the traditional form
The Alpine Grip rubber compound is a combination of natural rubber, silica and functional polymers. The secret to exceptional performance lies in the perfectly matched proportions that make driving a car much safer and all manoeuvres become easier.
Nokian WR Snowproof is not only distinguished by its advanced rubber compound. The model is equipped with a unique tread with an arrow-shaped profile. The optimised arrangement of the blocks and grooves ensures precise handling on soft snow surfaces. Increased grip is particularly noticeable in the evente of sudden braking or acceleration.
No skidding in mud or snow is the result of a blockage-resistant tread design. The double grooves with polished surface remove all liquids and debris from underneath the wheels much faster. This makes it easier to drive even during heavy rainfall.
Precise braking regardless of the condition of the road surface is ensured by the proprietary Brake Booster stabilisers, located in the shoulder zones. The toothed edges go into the snow cover, keeping a steady track in the event of sudden braking.
Reliable Snow Claws are the guarantee of trouble-free acceleration and braking on snow. The system of ridges on the tread surface provides total control during dynamic manoeuvring.
Comfortable and quiet drive is possible thanks to the Silent Sidewall Technology. This technology offers a combination of an innovative rubber compound and a modern tyre design. It reduces vibrations caused by contact between tyres and the road surface, protecting against excessive noise and vibrations.
Nokian Tyres is a premium manufacturer recognised as an expert on winter conditions. Suffice it to say that Nokian Tyres was the world's first winter tyre to be launched back in 1934. Decades of experience and design work have made the Finnish company's products a symbol of safety and reliability. The brand's tyres are tested at the northernmost research centre located in Lapland, where they are subjected to extreme trials.
