Prometer HP500
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- All weather traction
- Enhanced controllability
- Longer lasting tread life
- Reduced road vibrations
OVERVIEW
The Prometer HP500 is a performance, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.
The tire is easily controlled in various conditions. The tread's continuous center rib and wide footprint maintain the tire's contact with the road surface at all times. The better road contact upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. As a result, the structure is secured during the drive, while the steering becomes faster and more precise. The optimal shoulder tread block pattern enhances the cornering capability. They increase the number of biting edges to boost the grip on the road surface in such situations to guarantee a secure maneuvering capability.
The model upgrades the all weather traction. The directional tread block placement and the slotted shoulder pattern work together with the all season tire compound to enhance the model's grip on the road surface. The stronger grip upgrades the dry, wet and winter weather performance. The tread elements maintain their grip on the road surface throughout the year, while the compound keeps the tire's flexible traction, even in colder temperatures. The tread's circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The better traction and hydroplaning resistance ensure a safer driving experience in all weather.
The tread design and the durable compound increase the length of the tread life. The stronger compound is wear-resistant which significantly slows down the tread wear rate. The optimal tread pattern boosts the even pressure distribution. The equally balanced forces of acceleration, cornering and braking avoids the formation of irregular tread wear along the tread area. The longer lasting tread life ensures an extended usability, making the tire more cost efficient.
The HP500 offers a comfortable drive. The optimal tread pattern enables the tire to absorb the shock of driving during its performance. In this manner, the road vibrations do not reach the vehicle's cabin and do not dampen the passengers' driving enjoyment. The reduced road vibrations improve the driving comfort levels throughout the drive.
