Iris Ecoris. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Summer Trailer; Fuel Efficient Drive; Enhanced Driving Comfort; Improved Handling Ability; . OVERVIEW: The Iris Ecoris is a touring, summer tire made for passenger cars.This model is specially designed to offer consistent traction throughout the summer. The versatile compound and the four-rib tread pattern boost the tire's grip in wet and dry weather. These are the most important factors when it comes to summer performance. The silica plays a huge role in keeping the rubber flexible, as the temperature fluctuates from medium to super-hot. The tread also utilizes a huge number of biting edges in the form of lateral sipes and notches. The three wide, circumferential grooves eliminate water from the footprint, guaranteeing seamless wet traction.The tire's tread is designed with summer traction in mind. Combined with the silica compound, it significantly reduces its rolling resistance. With less pressure affecting the footprint throughout the drive, the vehicle requires less fuel to reach the same speed. This makes it much more cost-efficient to run the vehicle, while also keeping CO2 emissions low. Due to these features, this model is one of the better environmentally friendly options out there.The vehicle's driving comfort is enhanced with the tire's optimized tread pattern. On its tread, the sipes and notches are arranged to minimize road noise generated during the ride. The tire minimizes road vibrations, making sure that the resulting noise is so weak that it barely reaches the vehicle's cabin. As a result, the driver can focus on the road ahead, without having to deal with any distractions in the process. The tire guarantees a quiet performance, even at high speeds.The flat footprint formed by the four-rib tread enhances the tire's overall maneuverability. Since the tire evenly distributes load and driving pressure, it is always balanced against the asphalt. Thanks to its stability, the driver is able to count on fast and accurate responses while navigating the vehicle. The tire's structure is sturdy enough to resist driving pressure affecting it. The silica in the Ecoris provides additional friction during braking, which shortens braking distance by a great deal. 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.
