Yokohama W.drive V902A is a winter tyre designed for the passenger and SUV cars. They are constructed so as to enhance grip on the snowy road. As the High Performance tyres, they preserve flexibility in the low temperatures and the unique tread carving offers the maximum traction. Asymmetrical tread with high stiffness, unique, 3D sipes shapes as well as application of advanced rubber compound ensure outstanding performances in the wide spectrum of temperatures and on all kinds of surfaces.
Asymmetrical tread with high stiffness ensures balanced, high capabilities on the dry, wet and also on the snowy surface. The inner zone includes blocks with balanced stiffness and grooves ensuring efficient grip on snow. The outer zone is equipped with high-stiffness blocks that are efficient during driving in bends with dry surface. Optimal layout of the main longitudinal grooves enables drainage of the melting snow and water as well as maintenance of maximum tyre’s point of contact with all kinds of surfaces. Optimised grooves width between the blocks allows for the evacuation of the melting snow ensuring additional grip by the reinforced edge effect. Original, 3D sipes’ shape with polyhedral surface ensures high performance on the dry, wet and snowy surface. Tread depth indicators on the main groove provide additional safety measures. W.drive tyres’ compound meets wide temperatures’ spectrum ensuring optimal performance in various winter conditions. Moreover, in the ADAC motorwelt 2008 edition test in the size of 195/65 R15T it was rated as recommendable.
