Product description & features
Riken’s Ultra High Performance tyre has been designed with an asymmetrical tread pattern to increase control at high speed as well as featuring enhanced tyre construction to prevent wear on the tyre.
Rolling resistance as well as traction control in wet conditions have both been greatly improved with the help of the new silica compound the Ultra High Performance tyre has been built with.
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.
