Petlas Velox Sport PT711. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Summer weather traction; High speed performance; Enhanced controllability; Longer-lasting tread life; . OVERVIEW: The Petlas Velox Sport PT711 is a performance and high performance, summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.The minimalistic directional tread design maintains the tire's consistent surface contact at all times. This tread design works with the heat-resistant compound in order to boost its dry and wet weather performance. As a result, the tire's summer weather performance is ensured. Additionally, the V-shaped groove placement avoids hydroplaning in wet conditions. These grooves upgrade the tire's water drainage, guaranteeing its surface contact.The reinforced construction and special summer compound blend allow the tire to increase its performance. Heat build-up along the tread area is avoided, while the structure does not deform under high speed pressure. This combination allows the tire to securely perform at its utmost capability.Maintaining surface contact significantly boosts the model's controllability. The tread helps to enhance steering responsiveness and driving stability at all times. In this manner, it promotes better steering responses and accuracy to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure as well. The stronger shoulder block placement provides additional biting edges, increasing its cornering and maneuvering capability.The Petlas Velox Sport PT711 also offers a lengthened tread life. The stable footprint and stronger tread elements effectively resist tread flexing. In this manner, the tire makes sure pressure build-up along the tread area is prevented, along the footprint to evenly circulate driving pressure. This results in slow and even wear, boosting the service life. 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.
