Riken Raptor ZR A/S
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- High speed performance
- Enhanced controllability
- All weather traction
OVERVIEW
The Riken Raptor ZR A/S is a high performance, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.
The tire promotes great all weather traction. The special all weather compound and the directional tread design firmly grip the road surface in dry, wet and winter conditions. The compound optimizes the rubber flexibility in various temperatures, while the tread pattern improves the grip on the road surface. The arrow-shaped tread grooves help prevent hydroplaning in wet weather by eliminating water and slush from beneath the tire's footprint.
The tire's sidewall compound and the directional tread design enhances the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. The rigid sidewall maintains the tire's optimal shape and enhances the tire's steering responsiveness and accuracy. The better response time and precision allows the driver to confidently control the tire. The special directional tread design stabilizes the tire against the driving pressure affecting it, which ensures a secure driving capability. The combination of these improvements also guarantees excellent road feedback.
The Raptor ZR is capable of high speed performance. The rigid sidewalls maintain the tire's optimal shape throughout the high speed drive. In this manner, the construction does not let the model deform under the driving pressure. The compound, on the other hand, eases the driving pressure off the tire, preventing heat build-up. The model is able to perform at its greatest high speed ability in all weather conditions.
Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
