Patriot RB-1 Plus
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- All weather traction
- Enhanced controllability
- High speed performance
- Longer lasting tread life
OVERVIEW
The Patriot RB-1 Plus is a performance and high performance (depending on the speed rating) all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.
The model ensures excellent all weather traction. The all season tire compound maintains its traction and flexibility in dry, wet and even in colder winter conditions, while the higher siping density of the asymmetric tread pattern boosts the ice and snow-covered road surface gripping ability. The wide circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by eliminating water and slush from below the tire's footprint. In this manner, the tire promotes a safer driving experience in all weather.
The tire's constant road contact promotes a secure performance. The continuous center rib improves the model's road contact to increase the steering responsiveness and driving stability, that make the tire easier to control in all weather. The large shoulder tread blocks improve the number of biting edges gripping the road surface during cornering to provide a safer cornering and maneuvering capability. The high siping density manages to shorten the braking distance by creating friction at the moment of braking, even in winter. The tire's stronger internal structure does not deform under the high speed driving pressure, allowing the model to perform to its best high speed capability.
The RB-1 Plus guarantees an extended tread life. The optimized road contact lengthens the tread life and the tire's usability as it manages to evenly spread out the forces of acceleration, cornering and braking. The evenly distributed driving pressure actively resists the formation of irregular wear across the tread area. The longer lasting even tread wear offers a lengthened usability, making the model more cost efficient.
