Product description & features
The Ventus S1 Evo 2 K117B is a high-performance summer tyre, developed with DTM technology.
The specially designed tread pattern with aqua driving control allows for rapid water draining while providing high performance in the wet, and a cooling system which improves heat radiation at high speeds – thus enhancing traction on wet and dry roads.
The tyre structure includes a high grip silica compound and wide steel belt layer – further improving traction and handling in both wet and dry conditions, whilst delivering lower rolling resistance.
What are summer tyres?
Summer tyres are specifically designed for warm weather conditions, particularly during the summer season. This type of tyre performs best when in seasons with warmer temperatures - above 7°C.
How does a summer tyre perform better in summer?
The technologies and tread patterns used in a summer tyre mean the tyres have high-quality features that are of benefit to driving in warm conditions. They typically use a softer rubber compound – designed for good grip and traction when driving on dry and wet roads.
Can you use summer tyres in winter?
Whilst summer tyres still offer adequate performances in wet and cooler conditions, it is recommended that you change. The tread design and technologies that are featured in summer tyres can harden in colder temperatures, resulting in reduced flexibility and decreased traction on snow and ice.
