Artum A500

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Summer weather traction
• High speed controllability
• Upgraded maneuvering

OVERVIEW

The Artum A500 is a performance and high performance, summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.

Summer weather traction is ensured with this tire model. The summer compound and the directional tread design greatly upgrade the dry and wet weather traction. The stronger compound optimizes the summer weather performance by preventing heat build-up across the tread area. The directional tread design with the angled groove pattern to improve the grip on the road surface as well. The circumferential and angled lateral grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water from the footprint, further upgrading the wet traction.

High speed controllability is improved with the stronger structure and the directional tread design. The solid center rib maintains the surface contact throughout the performance. As a result, the tire is able to greatly upgrade the steering responsiveness and driving stability. This promotes a quick and precise steering response, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the tire. The durable structure does not deform under the high speed pressure, while the compound and the tread design effectively prevent heat build-up. This allows the tire's high speed durability, enabling its high speed performance in summer weather conditions.

The A500 boosts its maneuvering with the tread elements. The directional tread design with the optimal shoulder block placement increases the cornering and braking power. The shoulder blocks with the sipe and notch placement improve the grip on the road surface with extra biting edges, upgrading the cornering capability. The summer compound and the directional tread design help to generate friction at the moment of braking, shortening the braking distance. This combination ensures a safer driving experience.
