Firestone Winterforce CV Review

Commercial winter tires promote excellent durability and winter weather performance. They manage to improve the controllability and load capacity significantly with the maintained ideal tire shape, which further enhances the driving safety levels.

Priority Tire offers a wide range of winter tires for commercial vehicles for sale. One such model is the Firestone Winterforce CV which guarantees excellent durability, controllability and severe winter weather traction, for which it has received the three mountain peak and snowflake symbol.

Winter Weather Performance

Winter tires promote excellent winter weather traction and great hydroplaning resistance with their optimally detailed tread pattern. They utilize their high-density tread pattern and winter weather compound to ensure a secure performing ability in cold temperature weather conditions.

The Winterforce CV features a detailed directional tread design which maintains the tire’s surface contact. The tread’s high-density siping detail improves the number of biting edges gripping the ice- and snow-covered road surface conditions. This, along with the durable winter compound which maintains the tire’s rubber flexibility in freezing temperatures, enables the tire to securely perform in various winter weather conditions. This results in the tire’s stronger winter traction and performing safety.

The tread design also helps prevent hydroplaning. Hydroplaning is a dangerous road hazard which happens when water and slush stuck on the road surface cut off the tire’s surface contact, which causes the vehicle to skid. The Winterforce CV uses its wide, high-angle lateral grooves and deep circumferential channels to disperse water and slush from below the footprint.

Enhanced Load Durability

Commercial tires need excellent load and driving durability to ensure their utmost performing capability throughout their drive. This is ensured with their reinforced construction which manages to maintain the ideal tire shape under the load and driving pressure affecting the model.

The Winterforce CV improves the load and driving durability. The internal structure features a strengthened twin steel belt structure on top of a polyester casing. This construction significantly improves the tire’s load and driving durability. The reinforced structure maintains the ideal tire shape under the load and driving pressure affecting the model. The maintained shape enables the tire to carry and withstand heavy loads with ease, which increases the load capacity. The stronger load durability enables the secure heavy load performance.

Handling and Controllability

Tires must provide excellent controllability throughout their performance. Their tread design and surface contact optimize the model’s steering responsiveness and driving stability. As a result, the tire guarantees a safer driving experience.

The Winterforce CV features a directional tread pattern with a continuous center tread block placement, which maintains the tire’s surface grip throughout its performance. Furthermore, the tread’s tie-bars secure the tread stability, optimizing the surface contact. This allows the tire to boost the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In this manner, the constant surface contact upgrades the steering response time and accuracy to the driver’s commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. This combination enhances the driver’s control over the vehicle at all times.

The optimal tread design also boosts the maneuvering ability. The optimally placed shoulder blocks boost the cornering capability. These blocks enhance the number of biting edges gripping the road surface during the drive, which enhances the cornering power. The high-density siping detail upgrades the braking power. These sipes create friction between the tire and the road surface at the moment of braking. As a result, the tire significantly shortens the braking distance with the strengthened braking capacity. This combination upgrades the tire’s secure maneuvering and performing capability.
