Product description

  • Winter tyre for cars and SUVs.
  • Enhanced stability and traction on winter roads.
  • Good wet and snow grip.

Winter tyre designed for a vast range of cars and 4x4s, the W.drive V905 offers increased safety on winter roads and higher fuel efficiency.

Winter. 3D sipes and grooves maximise the number of biting edges to improve traction and grip. Wide, angled grooves in the directional tread help clear water, slush and fresh snow. Zigzag longitudinal grooves and variable angle lateral grooves improve lateral stability on wet roads.

Handling. 2D sipes in the central part maintain the tyre’s stiffness for stable handling. The flexible compound includes orange oil to improve ground contact.

Economy. The silica compound with added polymers and the lighter weight construction contribute to lower rolling resistance and improved fuel efficiency.

What is the rezulteo score?

The rezulteo score is calculated considering three performance categories: economy, comfort and safety. When it comes to winter tyres, the performance criteria snow and ice are added. By weighting different basic performance criteria an overall score is determined. This weighting is calculated based on the tyre size category: economic, high performance or sports.
