Attention! Due to the size of the tires, Packages might be SEPARATED in the courier facility and not be DELIVERED on the SAME DAY, even though we do ship them together. Tracking information can be checked by logging on to the courier website with the master tracking number you will receive via email. For example, you can receive 3 tires in one day and the 4th one the next day or the day after, or one tire in one day and the second one day after. We understand that this is a big inconvenience for our buyers, however, this is ABSOLUTELY out of our control.
Features and Benefits:
The Cosmo RC-17 is a touring, all season tire made for passenger vehicles. This model has some high performance sizes as well. Cosmo offers a 45,000 mile treadwear warranty with new tires of this model.
Cosmo also offers a road hazard warranty with this tire. Road hazard damage is harm caused to the tire during its performance. It can occur in the form of punctures, bruises, or impact breaks when the tire is driven in normal driving conditions on a federal, state, and/or locally maintained road. Cosmo's road hazard covers the first 25% of the tire's tread life or 1 year from the date of purchase (whichever comes first). The road hazard warranty covers passenger vehicle and SUV sizes and it does not include sizes of the 40 series and below and 21-inch diameters and above. In order to qualify for the road hazard, the tires must be registered with Cosmo within 45 days after the purchase.
The tire increases the all weather traction. The special tread design and the durable compound elements upgrade the dry, wet, and winter weather conditions. The compound upgrades the rubber flexibility in different weather situations, optimizing the summer and winter weather traction. The tread elements manage to firmly grip the road surface at all times, by increasing the number of biting edges. The tread's groove pattern avoids hydroplaning. The grooves disperse water and slush from the footprint, maintaining the surface contact and enhancing the wet weather driving security.
The better road contact of the tread design also increases the controllability. The maintained surface contact upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In other words, the tire boosts the steering response and accuracy while the tires are in motion, and secures its structural stability against the driving pressure affecting the model. The shoulder tread design with the siping placement enhances the cornering capability. These tread elements provide extra biting edges during maneuvering, which gives even more control over the vehicle to the driver.
The stronger compound and the ideal tread design upgrade fuel efficiency. They work together to ease the pressure off the tire's footprint, greatly lowering its rolling resistance. The rolling resistance is the pressure affecting the tire which determines the vehicle's fuel intake levels in order to keep the tires in motion. By significantly reducing the rolling resistance, the tire is able to decrease the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emission levels. As a result, the tire offers a fuel and environmentally conscious performance.
The optimal footprint and the stronger compound elongate the usability. The maintained surface contact and the ideal footprint improve the even pressure distribution throughout the performance. This enables the tire to actively combat irregular wear formations. On the other hand, the stronger, heat-resistant compound helps to prevent premature wear by avoiding heat build-up along the footprint. In this manner, the tire is able to boost the service and tread life greatly.
The Cosmo RC-17 also ensures high driving comfort levels. The maintained surface contact optimizes the tire's performance and enables the tire to absorb the shock of driving. This greatly lowers the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin. The tread design manages to channel airwaves through the footprint, preventing their contact with the tread elements. This avoids road and tread pattern noise from reaching the passengers. This combination ensures that road disturbances do not disturb the passengers' driving enjoyment during the tire's performance, resulting in a quiet and comfortable driving experience.
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.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Please note this is Original Equipment (O.E.) tire size only. The O.E. size is determined by the year, make, model and options of the vehicle. Original Equipment size data is the best information we currently have available to us. TireMart.com is not responsible for fitment errors. The most important aspect of purchasing a tire is its size, which cannot vary. It is buyer's responsibility to verify the tire size information. It is buyer's responsibility to verify whether a specific tire is suitable for a specific vehicle. However, this tire size may be fitted on other vehicles as well. To ensure that you are purchasing the correct tire size for your vehicle, please check the size of your currently mounted tires (locate on the tire's sidewall). The tire's sidewall also features the speed and load rating, indicating the speed and load capacity of the specific tire. The speed and load index can differ from the tires you currently have mounted on your vehicle up to a degree. Please check your vehicle's Owner's Manual or consult with your mechanic regarding the changes of your tire's speed rating and load index. If you have any questions regarding your tire size , speed rating and load index please contact us prior to purchasing and confirm with certified auto technician of any variance in speed and load index and sizes.
