Continental VancoWinter 2 (OE) 112/110R D (8 Ply) Winter Tire

Continental VancoWinter 2. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Winter weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Upgraded load durability; . OVERVIEW: The Continental VancoWinter 2 is highway terrain, winter tire manufactured for commercial vehicles.The tire improves the winter weather traction. The model combines the winter compound and the symmetric tread design which boost the winter weather, ice and snow grip. The stronger compound elements optimize the rubber flexibility in freezing temperatures, by utilizing stronger rubber materials during the manufacturing process. The symmetric tread design with the high-density zigzag sipe pattern enhances the grip on the road surface with additional biting edges, optimizing the ice and snow traction. The circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from the footprint, resulting in a safer wet weather performance.The model improves the controllability with the symmetric ribbed tread design. The maintained surface contact enables the tire to upgrade the steering responsiveness and the driving stability, greatly enhancing the driver's control over the vehicle. The shoulder block pattern and the zigzag sipes provide additional biting edges in order to grip the road surface during maneuvering. The high-density siping placement also helps to enhance the braking ability. They generate friction between the tire and the road surface, shortening the braking distance and optimizing the driver's control over the vehicle on ice- and snow-covered road surfaces.The VancoWinter 2 features a reinforced internal structure which allows the tire to maintain the ideal tire shape at all times. As the tire does not deform, the model is able to securely carry and withstand heavy loads with ease. In this manner, the tire is able to greatly improve the load and driving durability throughout the performance. This specific tire is marked with OE as it is the original equipment tire of select vehicles. 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.
