Delinte Thunder D7. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Fuel efficient drive; High speed performance; Reduced road noise levels; . OVERVIEW: The Delinte Thunder D7 is a performance and high performance, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.The tire promotes exceptional all weather traction. The special high performance silica compound and the blade-shaped tread design firmly grip the road surface in dry, wet and winter weather. The compound maintains its flexibility even in colder temperatures, while the tread finds great road grip all year. The tread's four wide circumferential grooves effectively resist hydroplaning by eliminating water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The enhanced road contact ensures a safer driving experience in all conditions.The special compound succeeds in decreasing the rolling resistance. The rolling resistance is the force affecting the tire that determines how much energy is needed to maintain the tire's motion. The reduced rolling resistance manages to lower the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, making the tire more fuel efficient and environmentally friendly. The lessened rolling resistance also eases the driving force off the tire surface which slows the tread wear rate down significantly. The result is a longer lasting even tread wear.The model is efficiently handled. The tread design's center rib and the shoulder tread blocks boost the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. The steering becomes quick and precise to the driver's commands, while the tire's optimal shape is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting it. The center rib manages to shorten the braking distance as well. It creates friction at the moment of braking to ensure a safer braking ability. The special tire compound prevents deformation at high speeds, enhancing the model's high performance capability.The Thunder D7 ensures a quiet and comfortable driving experience. The special groove shape with the variable pitch design decreases the air flow and negates the road noise generated. The optimized pitch design creates a sound frequency that cancels the road noise generated while the tires are in motion. This reduces the road noise heard in the vehicle's cabin. The result is an enjoyable driving experience. 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.
