Lionhart LH-FIVE. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Longer lasting tread life; Enhanced controllability; Reduced road noise levels; . OVERVIEW: The Lionhart LH-FIVE is a performance and high performance, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.The tread design and the special tire compound ensure first-rate all weather traction. They firmly grip the road surface in dry, wet and winter weather. The compound maintains its flexibility in colder temperatures, while the tread design keeps the tire close to the road surface at all times. The wide circumferential and smaller lateral grooves actively resist hydroplaning by eliminating water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The result is a safer year round driving performance.The model guarantees a longer lasting usability. The special optimized tread pattern manages to prevent irregular tread wear by evenly distributing the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally spread out forces of acceleration, braking and cornering prevents irregular tread wear formations on the tire's surface. The internal structure's reinforcement enhances the tread area. It makes it resistant to damages, such as cuts, chipping and cracking. The prevention of external damages and the evenly worn tread area extend the tire's usability and tread life significantly.The optimized tread design also offers better controllability. It keeps the tire's road contact thanks to the three center ribs and the shoulder tread block sequences. The center ribs stabilize the tire against the driving pressure affecting it during the drive, while the shoulder blocks increase the steering responsiveness and accuracy to the driver's commands. The shoulder tread blocks also increase the number of biting edges that grip the road surface during cornering and maneuvering, guaranteeing a secure drive in all weather.The LH-FIVE promotes a quiet drive. The optimized tread design features a variable pitch sequence that negates the road noise heard while the tires are in motion. The variable pitch creates a sound frequency constantly during the drive. This cancels out the road noise heard in the vehicle's cabin and guarantees a quiet and comfortable 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.
