Forceum Octa

OVERVIEW

The Forceum Octa is a performance and high performance, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.

The tire promotes exceptional all season traction. The asymmetric tread features a dual zone design. The tire’s outer area increases the dry weather performance, while the inner area boosts the wet and light winter weather road gripping ability. The dry zone’s tread blocks firmly grip the road surface, while the wet zone sport circumferential grooves that prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water from beneath the tire’s footprint. The better hydroplaning resistance and excellent all weather road gripping ability ensure a safer year round driving experience.

The model’s controllability and maneuvering are first-rate. The asymmetric tread pattern features three center ribs that maintain constant road contact. The tread design firmly grips the road in all conditions and allows the tire to closely follow the surface. This enhances the steering responsiveness and accuracy, while also stabilizing the tire against the driving pressure affecting it. The three center ribs also manage to shorten the braking distance. They create friction at the moment of braking, enhancing the braking ability and power. The outer shoulder tread block sequence increases the number of biting edges that ensure a safer and more controlled cornering and maneuvering capability.

The Octa offers an enjoyable drive. The tread design decreases the road noise heard while the tires are in motion thanks to the variable pitch sequence. It negates the road noise heard in the vehicle’s cabin during the drive by generating a sound frequency that cancels the sound waves before they reach the cabin. The result is a quiet and comfortable driving experience.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
