Nankang Winter Activa SV-55

255/55 R19 111V
Superior handling in cold weather is provided by the asymmetric pattern design and special compound. Three-dimensional sipe improves snow handling and ice traction performance. Multi-tiered shoulders enhance gripping and shovelling ability. Four circumferential groove tread pattern design with 36% void ratio has effective drainage performance to prevent hydroplaning or slipping on a wet surface. The sipes enhance cornering manoeuvrability and strengthen lateral force The 2-in-1 pitch design minimizes rolling noise by depressing resonance effect The cylindrical sipes on the outside help to form icicles to enhance crawling and gripping ability on snowy or icy surfaces The linkage between outside blocks strengthens block stiffness to enhance corning manoeuvrability
