Haida Ex-Comfort. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Year-round performance; Enhanced controllability; High speed durability; Quiet driving experience; . OVERVIEW: The Haida Ex-Comfort is a performance and high performance, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles. This model has some touring sizes available as well.The optimal tread pattern and the all season compound boost the tire's year-round traction. In this manner, the asymmetric tread pattern maintains road contact at all times, while the all season compound keeps the rubber flexible in changing temperatures. As a result, these elements improve the tire's performance in dry, wet, and winter-weather conditions. Hydroplaning resistance is provided as well. Circumferential grooves effectively eliminate water and slush from the footprint in wet situations.The model enhances its controllability. The ideal tread design maintains road contact at all times. It improves steering responsiveness and driving stability. The steering response time is quicker and more accurate to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. On the other hand, wide shoulder blocks firmly grip the road surface with extra biting edges. This enables the tire's excellent cornering and maneuvering during the performance.The strengthened internal structure and the special silica compound boost the driving durability and handling. In this manner, the strong structure keeps the ideal tire shape under the driving pressure affecting the tire. The silica compound resists heat accumulation on the tread area while the tires are in motion. These elements enable the tire to perform at its best high speed capability.The Haida Ex-Comfort increases driving comfort levels. The ideal tread pattern and its close road contact reduce road and tread noise levels heard in the vehicle's cabin. This tread pattern channels airwaves away from the footprint, preventing them from coming into contact with the tread elements and generating noise. This tread allows the passengers to enjoy a quiet performance.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.
