All Season Performance
All season tires improve their all weather traction with their tread design and compound materials. These manufacturing elements work together to increase the year round driving safety by keeping the tire’s ideal traction in different conditions. All season tires are generally more popular on the market due to their year long performing capabilities.
The SU318 H/T combines its tread design and all season compound to increase the all weather traction. The symmetric ribbed tread pattern with the high density siping detail and the all season silica based tire compound work together to increase the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The silica rubber materials maintain the tire’s flexible traction in various conditions, including in colder winter weather. The tread’s detailed siping pattern offers extra biting edges which upgrade the tire’s grip on the road surface.
The model’s groove pattern helps boost the hydroplaning resistance. Hydroplaning happens when the water and slush located on the rod surface cuts off the tire’s contact with the road surface. This causes the vehicle to skid as the driver loses control over it. The SU318 H/T’s circumferential grooves manage to channel water and slush away from the tire’s footprint, guaranteeing its constant road surface contact. As a result, the tire effectively avoids hydroplaning and increases the wet and winter weather traction.
Handling and Controllability
A tire’s controllability depends on its internal construction and its road contact. The structure must maintain the tire’s driving stability throughout the performance, while the tread design must offer a constant road contact to improve the steering responsiveness. The better controllability and driving durability ensure a safer performing capability in various conditions.
The SU318 H/T features a symmetric ribbed tread pattern and a reinforced construction. They work together to increase the tire’s controllability at all times. The ribbed pattern keeps the tire’s contact with the road surface throughout the tire’s performance. This greatly improves the steering responsiveness as it becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver’s instructions. The durable construction, with the wide steel bead structure, manages to secure the tire’s structure against the driving pressure affecting it. This improves the driving stability as it upgrades the tire’s contact with the road surface. The enhanced controllability enables the tire’s high driving safety levels.
The special tread design’s optimal shoulder tread block pattern helps increase the cornering capability. The stabilized shoulder tread block pattern enhances the tire’s cornering ability by improving the number of biting edges gripping the road surface during maneuvering. The better road grip and the additional biting edge upgrade the maneuvering power, guaranteeing a secure highway performance.
High Driving Comfort Levels
Highway tires are known for their durability and ideal tread pattern. When you combine these aspects and apply them to increase the driving comfort levels, you can create a comfortable and quiet tire with ease. The tread design and internal structure work together and decrease the road noise and vibration levels with ease.
The reinforced internal structure of the SU318 H/T maintains the tire’s ideal shape under the driving and load pressure. The optimal tire shape closely follows the road surface throughout the tire’s performance, which allows it to absorb the shock of driving. In this manner, the road disturbances are not felt in the vehicle’s cabin as the road vibrations are dampened by the ideal construction.
The special computer-optimized tread design successfully lowers the road noise levels. This tread pattern creates a unique sound-canceling frequency. The frequency negates the road noise levels heard while the tires are in motion, which prevents the road and tread pattern noise from being heard in the vehicle’s cabin during the drive. This results in a quiet and comfortable performance in all weather.
