Van Tires
Durability and safe with excellence Winter performance for Light Commercial Vehicles
- The pursuit of SNOW & WET performance
- Feel easy to drive on Snow and ICE surface. And Get more confidence at the driving on WET surface. Safety drive anytime in winter season.
- Pass the criteria of 2012 European Regulation (Noise, RRC)
- Regulation sets minimum requirement for rolling resistance and external rolling noise. New product delivers low rolling resistance and low noise level without sacrificing winter performance. *C2 category is not required for wet grip level
- Maintaining the proven durability
- Offering durability and high resistance against sidewall cuts and scuffing.

tread stiffness
- 3 Wide Grooves
- Excellent water evacuation provided by 3 wide grooves, even after long mileage.
- Traction Block with Micro Diagonal Sipes
- Providing “direct-feel” and “traction” on SNOW and ICE surface. Diagonal Shallow slits on the tyre tread surface provide optimum performance even break-in period.
- Rigid Shoulder Ribs with Lug
- Moderating stiffness blocks help even wear for long mileage.
- 3D sipes
- Improve performance on SNOW and ICE surface with its maximized actual contact area under deflection and edge effect without loosing block stiffness.
- Conventional sipes
- 3D sipes
- Side Wall Protector
- Providing protection against side wall damage, counteracting critical damage in this area.
