OVERVIEW
The Nankang Cross Sport SP-9 is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. This model has some high performance sizes as well. Nankang offers a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.
The tire guarantees exceptional all weather traction. The all season tire compound and the asymmetric tread design's optimized siping detail and angled tread blocks increase the lateral gripping ability and the all weather traction. The four wide circumferential and the numerous lateral grooves upgrade the water and slush dispersing ability, which effectively avoids hydroplaning when driving in wet conditions. The enhanced traction, grip and hydroplaning resistance ensure a safer driving experience year round.
The tire's internal structure features reinforced twin steel belts. They maintain the tire's optimal shape against the driving pressure affecting it and prevent deformation during the drive. The optimized tire shape increases the tire's strength and durability. The optimized tire shape allows the tire to keep constant road contact, which, along with the angled tread blocks, improves the steering responsiveness and driving stability. The tire's steering is quicker and more precise in its response to the driver's instructions. Its shape is secured thanks to the maintained optimal tire shape. As a result, the tire is easier to control in all weather.
The asymmetric tread pattern boosts the cornering and maneuvering ability. The large outer shoulder tread block design firmly grips the road in all weather situations with the additional biting edges the tread blocks provide. The enhanced biting edges greatly upgrade the cornering and maneuvering ability and power. They keep the tire's road contact and its optimal shape during such maneuvers to ensure a more secure driving experience.
The Cross Sport SP-9 guarantees a quiet and comfortable driving experience. The optimized touring tread pattern decreases the road noise generated while the tires are in motion. The tread design channels the airwaves through the tire's footprint without letting them come into contact with the tread elements. This prevents road noise from being created and lowers the driving discomfort during the drive. As the road noise cannot be heard in the vehicle's cabin, the drive is more enjoyable.
