FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- Summer weather traction
- Precise steering responsiveness
- Shorter braking distance
- Enhanced cornering ability
- Longer lasting tread life
OVERVIEW
The Hankook Ventus V12 Evo (QZ) is a high performance summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles. This model is the original equipment tire of select Mini vehicle models.
The tire has exceptional summer weather traction and it grips the road well in dry and wet weather thank to the summer compound and the special tread pattern. The wide linear and the Y-shaped tread grooves improve the wet weather traction and effectively disperse water from below the tire footprint to prevent dangerous hydroplaning. This enhancement offers a safe hot weather road gripping ability.
The 3D effect on the tread block edges and the solid center rib of the tread pattern improves the driving stability and the steering responsiveness by maintaining constant road contact. The better road contact and road gripping ability stabilizes the tire during the drive and offers a quick and precise steering responsiveness. As a result, the driver is capable of confidently and easily controlling the tire in summer weather conditions, making the tire's handling effortless.
The cornering ability and power is increased, while the braking distance is shortened. The high density full coverage of the internal structure maintains the tire's shape during cornering and maneuvering, which enhances the cornering stability and capability. The tread design's solid center rib keeps constant road contact. Thanks to this, the tire creates friction at the moment of braking, which shortens the braking distance. The better braking and cornering ensure a safe driving experience.
The Ventus V12 Evo (QZ) offers a longer lasting tread life. The optimized contact area equally spreads the driving pressure out across the tread area. The uniform distribution of the forces of acceleration, cornering and braking prevents irregular tread wear patterns from forming across the tread area, which extends the usability and tread life.
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.
