Product description & features
The Rollnex Cross Sport SP-9 is a specialised touring all-season CUV / SUV tyre, which delivers safety and comfort on wet and dry roads.
The SP-9’s tread pattern offers a sturdy shoulder for increased road contact and better cornering stability in dry conditions. Wave-shaped blocks with narrow sipes in the centre ensure superb traction on wet roads. Four longitudinal grooves likewise enable a high rate of water expulsion and lower the risk of aquaplaning.
The well-balanced SP-9 tread pattern also delivers reduced noise levels and low 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.
