Leao Lion Sport 3. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; High speed controllability; Longer lasting tread life; . OVERVIEW: The Leao Lion Sport 3 is a high performance, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.The tire upgrades the year round performance. The asymmetric ribbed tread design and the all season tire compound enhance the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The tread design's ribbed pattern with the optimal siping and notch placement enhances the surface grip throughout the drive. On the other hand, the silica-based compound increases the rubber flexibility in versatile temperatures, in warm summer and cold winter conditions, and actively prevents heat build-up. The tread's optimal circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the footprint. The stronger traction and the ideal tread design increase the all weather road gripping ability and power.The tread design increases the high speed controllability. The optimal pattern's close and constant surface contact improves the tire's overall handling. The better road contact boosts the steering responsiveness and the driving stability throughout the drive. In this manner, the steering is quicker and more precise in its response to the driver's commands while the tires are in motion. The tread and the silica compound actively prevent heat build-up along the tread area. This eases the driving pressure off the tire and enables the tire to perform at its best high speed capability. The stronger heat resistance ensures a safer high speed driving experience.The Lion Sport 3 increases the tread life. The tread design's ribbed pattern ensures even pressure distribution along the tread area. The equally circulated driving forces actively prevent irregular wear formations on the tire's surface. The durable, silica compound manages to slow the tread wear rate down. These rubber elements prevent excessive pressure build-up along the tread area, which improves its heat resistance. As a result, the tire does not allow the generated heat to accelerate the tread wear and cause the tire's premature wear-out. The decreased and even wear manner guarantees the model's extended usability. 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.
