Centara Vanti AS. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All Season Traction; Improved Maneuverability; Enhanced Driving Comfort; . OVERVIEW: The Centara Vanti AS is a touring, all season tire for passenger cars. It also has some highway, commercial sizes that are designed for commercial vans.The tire offers an outstanding performance in dry, wet, and winter weather conditions. It does so by utilizing its detailed tread pattern and adaptive all season compound. The four ribs are densely populated with biting edges in the form of lateral sipes and grooves. The tire also promotes four circumferential grooves that take care of hydroplaning. They disperse water, snow, and slush from the footprint to ensure constant road contact. The rubber blend and the big road-to-rubber ratio prevent heat accumulation, optimizing the tire's grip on the asphalt.The tread is designed to improve the tire's maneuverability throughout the drive. The tread elements form a flat footprint that evenly distributes load and driving pressure. The contact patch keeps the tire well-balanced on the contact surface, which improves its steering responsiveness and driving stability. As a result, the driver can resort to fast and precise steering at any time. The model has the structure required to secure the footprint against the driving pressure affecting it. These features guarantee that the driver has full control over the vehicle.The Centara Vanti AS boosts driving comfort, by reducing road vibrations. The siping on each tread block follows a specific siping pattern that reduces vibrations generated by the tire. This also results in a quiet driving experience, as noise levels reaching the vehicle's cabin are going to be lower. The footprint absorbs the driving shock, which ensures that the passengers do not feel road vibrations as much. The tread elements channel airwaves through the footprint, not allowing them to generate sound.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.
