Michelin Latitude Sport 3 Summer 255/55R18 105W Tire Fits: 2007-13 Acura MDX Base, 2006 Acura MDX Touring

Michelin Latitude Sport 3. Summer weather traction. Enhanced controllability. Fuel efficient drive. High speed durability. The Michelin Latitude Sport 3 is a performance and high performance, summer tire manufactured for passenger and SUVs. The tire promotes exceptional summer weather traction. The models dry and wet weather road gripping ability is boosted with the asymmetric tread design and special silica compound. The tread compound and design firmly grip the road surface and ensure excellent performance. The wide circumferential grooves actively channel water away from the tires footprint. This improves the wet weather traction and avoids hydroplaning by maintaining constant road contact. The asymmetric tread design also manages to improve the controllability. The continuous ribs and the large tread blocks maintain constant road contact, upgrading the steering responsiveness, driving stability and cornering capability. The shoulder blocks enhance the steering response time and accuracy to the drivers instructions and they provide additional biting edges for a more secure cornering and maneuvering ability and power. The tread designs variable thickness siping detail enhances the braking capability. They create friction at the moment of braking, efficiently shortening the braking distance and promoting a safer driving experience. The variable thickness siping detail also reduces the rolling resistance. The rolling resistance is the external power affecting the tires that determines how much energy the vehicle needs to maintain the tires motion. The reduced rolling resistance manages to lower the vehicles fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. This guarantees excellent performance in all summer weather road conditions and makes the model more fuel efficient and environmentally friendly. The Latitude Sport 3 has remarkable high speed durability. The tires internal structure features reinforced twin steel belts and a 2-ply casing that work together to prevent the tire from deforming under the high speed driving pressure. The maintained optimal tire shape enables the tire to perform to its best capability with ease.
