Farroad FRD866. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Reduced road noise levels; Enhanced controllability; . OVERVIEW: The Farroad FRD866 is a performance and high performance, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.The tire ensures first-rate all weather traction. The asymmetric tread design and the all season tire compound enhance the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The compound maintains the tire's flexibility even in winter weather conditions and it prevents weather damage from harming the tire. The tread elements, with the optimal siping detail, boosts the road grip and guarantee constant road contact. The circumferential grooves actively resist hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The increased all weather traction and hydroplaning resistance promote a safer year round driving experience.The tread design features three continuous siped center ribs and an optimized shoulder tread pattern. The three center ribs closely follow the road surface at all times. The tire's constant road contact improves the steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, the tire's steering response time and accuracy to the driver's instructions are upgraded and its structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the casing. The better controllability enables the driver to confidently maneuver the vehicle during its high speed performance.The FRD866 offers a quiet drive. The tread design's closed outer shoulder design decreases the road and tread pattern noise levels heard in the vehicle's cabin. The closed shoulder design prevents the airwaves from entering the tire's footprint and coming into contact with the tread elements. In this manner, the road and tread pattern noise are not generated while the tires are in motion, resulting in enhanced driving comfort and enjoyment. 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.
