Pirelli Scorpion Verde Run Flat (*) RF 107W XL

Pirelli Scorpion Verde Run Flat (*). FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Summer weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Fuel Efficient driving experience; Run flat tire model; Reduced road noise levels; . OVERVIEW: The Pirelli Scorpion Verde Run Flat (*) is a performance and high performance, summer tire manufactured for SUVs. This model is the original equipment tire of select BMW vehicles.The tire promotes first-rate summer weather traction. The asymmetric tread design and the summer tire compound work together to improve the dry and wet weather road gripping ability. The larger road contact area increases the model's performance by closely following the road surface. However, the tread design, with the low siping detail, and the compound are not suited for winter weather as they cannot provide the needed ice and snow traction. The tread's wide circumferential grooves actively disperse water and slush from below the tire's footprint and prevent hydroplaning, to further improve the wet weather performance. The better traction and hydroplaning resistance ensure a secure summer weather performance.The model's internal structure improves its durability as it was manufactured with Pirelli's run flat technology. This strengthens the tire's structure, allowing it to be driven on after air pressure loss for 50 miles up to the speed of 50 mph. In this manner, the driver can safely arrive at a nearby location to change or fix the tire, which prevents them from being stranded on the side of the road. Run flat tires are manufactured for vehicles without space for a spare tire. They cannot be mixed with regular tires as their internal construction is heavier.The special EcoImpact technology manages to lower the tire's rolling resistance by optimizing the tire's tread profile and compound materials. They ease the driving pressure off the tire and reduce the rolling resistance, which is a pressure affecting the tire that determines the amount of energy the vehicle needs to keep the tires in motion. The reduced rolling resistance decreases the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, ensuring a fuel efficient and environmentally friendly performance. The lessened rolling resistance also slows the tread wear rate down. This, along with the even driving pressure distribution of the asymmetric tread pattern, lengthens the tread life and the tire's usability as it prevents irregular tread wear formations.The asymmetric tread pattern upgrades the tire's controllability. The special optimal shoulder design keeps the tire's road contact at all times. This boosts the steering responsiveness and driving stability. As a result, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting it. The shoulder tread blocks heighten the number of biting edges as well, upgrading the cornering ability and power, guaranteeing a secure performance.The Scorpion Verde Run Flat (*) provides a quiet drive. The tread's variable pitch sequence negates the road noise levels generated while the tires are in motion. The variable pitch generates a sound frequency that cancels out the road and tread pattern noise before they reach the vehicle's cabin. In this manner, the tire guarantees a comfortable and enjoyable 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.
