Yokohama 101ZL Spec-2
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- Fuel efficient performance
- Longer lasting tread life
- Upgraded load durability
OVERVIEW
The Yokohama 101ZL Spec-2 is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for commercial vehicles. This model was made for the vehicle's steer axle.
The all season traction and the optimized tire casing ensure the surface contact at all times. This eases the pressure off the tire, minimizing the overall rolling resistance. The rolling resistance is the pressure affecting the tire which determines the vehicle's fuel intake needed to keep the tires in motion. Lowering the rolling resistance enables the tire to decrease the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emission levels. This results in the vehicle's fuel efficient and environmentally friendly driving experience.
The maintained surface contact greatly improves the length of the usability. The symmetric ribbed pattern's sipe and rib detail equalize the pressure distribution across the tread area. The equally circulated forces of acceleration, cornering and braking resist irregular wear formations. The stronger compound elements minimize the treadwear rate, greatly lengthening the service life. On the other hand, the stronger compound also manages to avoid the tread's chipping, cracking and tearing, significantly boosting the overall service life.
The 101ZL Spec-2 boosts the load durability. The wider belt package and the reinforced bead structure improve the load and driving durability. They strengthen the tire and maintain its ideal shape under the load and driving pressure. In this manner, the tire can securely carry and withstand heavy loads with ease, further boosting the load capacity.
