General Altimax One S
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- Improved Summer Traction
- High Speed Maneuverability
- Enhanced Driving Comfort
OVERVIEW
The General Altimax One S is a performance and high performance, summer tire manufactured for passenger cars.
The tire's summer weather traction is greatly enhanced by the rubber blend and the asymmetric tread design. The compound has a special rubber mixture that improves its surface gripping ability throughout the summer. This results in outstanding wet and dry weather traction. On the other hand, both the compound and tread design are optimized to prevent heat build-up. Thanks to the circumferential grooves and lateral sipes, the footprint is constantly kept clean of water. This enables it to maintain constant traction with the road surface.
This model comes with a large contact patch that enhances its stability against the asphalt. The asymmetric ribbed tread design further improves driving stability, ensuring better high-speed maneuverability. This ensures seamless handling for the vehicle, meaning that the control is fully in the driver's hands. With quicker and more precise steering, driving safety is also guaranteed. The footprint is designed to shorten braking distance by utilizing a high number of biting edges. The rubber blend is also heat-resistant, which eases some pressure off the footprint. This way, the tire can perform in a more secure manner, which boosts its high-speed performance.
The detailed tread design prevents the tire from generating road vibrations. It minimizes the road noise that would otherwise reach the cabin. This enables the driver to enjoy a quiet and comfortable driving experience. Simply put, there is no unnecessary friction between the tread footprint and the road surface. The tread is tough enough to resist flexing and channel airwaves across the footprint. These waves don't come in contact with the tread elements, which would generate noise. Instead, the Altimax One S provides a quiet and comfortable driving experience.
