While cornering, the tyre's outer shoulder bears the greatest for and pressure. The Cornering Macro-blocks maximise the contact area with the road to create a wider footprint, then efficiently distributes the force to other parts of the tyre for better handling and stability.
Optimised compound stiffness results in higher resistance to tyre deformation and improved steering response and precision. The ReFlex Compound comprises of an enhanced polymer blend that provides excellent safety on dry and wet roads.
MaxContact MC7's Laser Cut 3D sipes comprise of Star & Lightning sipes and Aqua sipes. Cutting through the water film from multiple angles and directions, to effectivly eject water from the road surface.
Tyre noise is produced at the tread as soundwaves travel through the grooves, the Noise Breaker 3.0 interrupts the waves by distributing the homogeneity of the grooves. The soundwaves are broken up and dissipated into smaller frequencies, preventing noise from building up and travelling into the cabin.
