Falken Sincera SN250A A/S. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Longer lasting tread life; Precise steering responsiveness; Comfortable driving experience; . OVERVIEW: The Falken Sincera SN250A A/S is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. It is the original equipment tire of select vehicle models.The silica tire compound and the special tread pattern guarantee great all weather traction. The Dynamic Range Technology adapts to the road and weather and ensures excellent road gripping ability year round. The special 3D Canyon sipes and the angled tread grooves boost the winter weather traction and prevent snow from packing in between the tread elements. The four wide circumferential grooves improve the water dispersing ability, which enhances the hydroplaning resistance. The high density siping detail increases the road gripping ability and offers a safe driving experience all year.The special symmetric tread pattern increases the tread life and usability. The non-directional pattern allows the tires to be rotated to ensure a long lasting tread life. Even tread wear is maintained throughout the tire's life as well. It is achieved with the equal distribution of the driving pressure and the forces of acceleration, cornering and braking, which prevents irregular wear from forming across the tread area. The even wear along the tread surface extends the tire's life.The steering responsiveness and driving stability ensure a safer driving experience by maintaining road contact and making the tire easier to control. The Dynamic Range Technology makes the tire adapt to the different weather conditions and improves the road gripping ability as a result, while the tread design's solid center rib's constant road contact improves the driving stability. The steering response to the driver's commands becomes quick and precise, while the road contact stabilizes the tire against the driving pressure. This combination offers an effortlessly controllable tire.The Sincera SN250A A/S promotes a quiet and comfortable drive. The Tension Control Technology creates a casing shape that offers a flexible middle sidewall area. This absorbs the driving shock as a result and lowers the road vibrations from being felt in the vehicle's cabin. This offers a comfortable drive and it improves the tire's handling as well. The tread pattern's siping detail decreases the pattern noise generated while the tires are in motion, thus lowering the road noise heard by the passengers. This specific tire is marked with VW as it is the original equipment of Volkswagen 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.
