Forceum Trideka. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Longer lasting tread life; Comfortable driving experience; . OVERVIEW: The Forceum Trideka is a touring all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.The tire promotes exceptional all weather traction. The symmetric tread design with the detailed siping and the all season tire compound work together to improve the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The result is a safer year round performance as the tire does not lose its firm grip and flexibility in colder temperatures. The tread design's wide circumferential grooves, numerous lateral grooves and open shoulder design actively resist hydroplaning by eliminating water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The better hydroplaning resistance and all weather traction ensure a secure performance in all weather.The special symmetric tread design features a center rib and large shoulder tread blocks that keep the tire's road contact constantly. The center rib's road contact enhances the tire's steering responsiveness and driving stability. In this manner, the steering becomes quick and precise in its responsiveness to the driver's commands, while the tire's structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting it during the drive. The large shoulder grooves heighten the number of biting edges that grip the road surface. This improves the cornering and maneuvering ability and guarantees a better all weather performance.The symmetric tread design also manages to extend the tread life and the tire's usability. The symmetric tread pattern evenly distributes the driving pressure across the tread area. The equally spread out forces of acceleration, cornering and braking actively prevents the formation of irregular tread wear formations along the tire's surface. The longer lasting even wear allows the model's extended usability, making it more cost efficient.The Trideka offers a comfortable driving experience. The tire comes in sizes with high aspect ratios that dampen the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin. They allow the model to closely follow the road surface, decreasing the vibrations generated while the tires are in motion and guaranteeing an 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.
