GT Radial WinterPro2
OVERVIEW
The GT Radial WinterPro2 is a touring, winter tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.
The tire offers great winter-weather traction. The detailed siping placement of the directional tread design and the winter compound work together in order to enhance the tire’s dry weather, ice, and snow grip. The high-density siping placement generates biting edges, further improving the tire’s exceptional performance. On the other hand, the compound keeps the rubber flexible in freezing temperatures. Hydroplaning is also avoided, thanks to the ideal groove placement. These groove channel water and slush from the footprint, further improving driving safety levels.
The optimal directional tread design maintains surface contact at all times. As a result, the tire is able to increase its steering responsiveness and driving stability. Quick and precise steering responses are guaranteed, while the structure is stabilized as well. The shoulder block placement with the sipe pattern enhances cornering with extra biting edges. The sipe and groove placement create friction when braking, shortening its overall braking distance.
Better traction also manages to significantly improve fuel efficiency. This effectively lowers rolling resistance while the tires are in motion. The rolling resistance is the pressure that determines the vehicle’s fuel usage necessary to keep the tires in motion. Lowering rolling resistance minimizes the vehicle’s fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, resulting in a fuel-conscious performance.
The WinterPro2 utilizes the tread design to decrease road disturbances. The directional tread design and the footprint’s close road contact work together to decrease road noise and vibrations. The tread pattern channels airwaves through the footprint, avoiding sound wave formations. Consistent road contact allows the tire to absorb the shock of driving, lowering vibrations. This combination offers 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.
