Lanvigator Performax. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Fuel efficient performance; . OVERVIEW: The Lanvigator Performax is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.The tire promotes great all weather traction. The model combines its all season compound with its detailed symmetric tread pattern throughout the tire's lifetime. The tread's optimal pattern enhances the grip on the dry, wet and winter weather road surfaces. The all weather compound improves the rubber flexibility in various temperatures. The tread's circumferential grooves and siping detail improve the hydroplaning prevention. They disperse water and slush from below the footprint and upgrade the wet and winter weather traction to ensure a secure year round driving experience.The model is easily controlled in different weather. The flat footprint's continuous center rib keeps the tire's contact with the road surface to increase its controllability. In this manner, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure. The optimal shoulder tread block placement enhances the tire's cornering ability. These blocks with the siping detail upgrade the number of biting edges gripping the road surface to guarantee a safer maneuvering capability.The tire was manufactured using a special fuel saving compound, which increases the traction and eases the driving pressure off the tire. This allows the tire to lower its rolling resistance. The decreased rolling resistance, in turn, reduces the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, promoting a fuel conscious and environmentally friendly performing ability. In this manner, the tire ensures a fuel-saving performance.The Performax provides a quiet drive. The shoulder tread design features a variable pitch sequence which lowers the road and tread pattern noise generated while the tires are in motion. This allows the tire to decrease the road and tread pattern noise heard in the vehicle's cabin as the pitch sequence negates the noise levels with a special sound frequency. This results in a quiet and comfortable performing ability. 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.
