HTR Z III Tires

Sumitomo HTR Z III Tires

The Sumitomo HTR Z III is a high performance, summer tire made for passenger vehicles. The tread design and silica compound enhance the summer traction. The compound maintains the rubber flexibility and prevents heat build-up during the drive. The tread’s optimal pattern increases the wet and dry road surface grip. The circumferential grooves avoid hydroplaning by dispersing water from the footprint.

The model promotes a longer lasting tread life. The ideal tread design’s block placement improves the surface contact. In this manner, the tire is able to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area, actively preventing irregular wear formations. On the other hand, the silica compound slows the tread wear rate down with wear-resistant rubber materials. This combination significantly elongates the tire’s usability.

The Sumitomo HTR Z III upgrades the high speed controllability. The reinforced tread design and structure increase the tire’s surface contact throughout its performance. This allows the model to increase the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. The steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver’s commands, while the structure is stabilized against the pressure. The shoulder tread block placement boosts the cornering and maneuvering power and grip. The stronger internal structure enables the tire to increase the high speed durability by maintaining the ideal tire shape under the high speed driving pressure affecting the model.
