Yokohama 715R
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- All weather traction
- Fuel efficient performance
- Longer lasting tread life
- Upgraded load durability
OVERVIEW
The Yokohama 715R is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for commercial vehicles. This model was made for the vehicle's drive axle.
The tire improves the all weather traction. The all season compound and the optimal block placement across the tread area improves the dry, wet and winter weather traction. The optimal block pattern with the siping placement enhances the grip on the road surface with extra biting edges, while the compound optimizes the rubber flexibility in versatile temperatures. The tread design's circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from the footprint, greatly upgrading the year round performing power.
The better all weather traction also eases the driving pressure off the tire, minimizing the rolling resistance while the tires are in motion. The rolling resistance is the pressure affecting the tire which determines the vehicle's necessary fuel consumption to keep the tires in motion. This results in the vehicle's lowered fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, which guarantees a fuel conscious and environmentally friendly driving experience.
The model promotes a longer lasting usability. The funnel-shaped groove pattern avoids stone retention as the rocks cannot drill into the tread area and harm the casing. In this manner, the grooves prevent casing damage. On the other hand, the tie-bars stabilize the tread area and prevent irregular wear formations by ensuring even pressure distribution. The durable compound elements combat premature wear with the wear-resistant rubber materials.
The 715R also boosts the load and driving durability. The tire utilizes the strengthened ply construction which keeps the ideal tire shape under the load and driving pressure. As the tire does not deform under the heavy load pressure, it is able to securely improve the overall load capacity.
