Features and Benefits
- Full-Touch Technology with wide flat tread profile: Maximises the contact patch specifically for SUV weight and dynamics, keeping more rubber in contact with the road at all times for outstanding grip and an exceptional ability to cling confidently to the road — even when the SUV is fully loaded with passengers and gear
Maxxis Performance Ply — hybrid nylon and aramid construction: A unique blended ply running beneath the tread delivers pinpoint precision and responsive handling across all conditions, combining the flexibility of nylon with the high strength-to-weight performance of aramid to keep even heavy SUVs feeling controlled and surefooted. - New eco-friendly high-grip silica compound: A next-generation silica formulation improves grip on both dry and wet surfaces simultaneously, while reducing rolling resistance for better fuel efficiency — a meaningful benefit for SUV owners covering high daily and weekly kilometres.
- 3+1 wide circumferential groove configuration: Three main circumferential grooves plus one additional groove rapidly evacuate water from the contact patch, providing strong hydroplaning resistance and maintaining confident wet weather braking and grip on New Zealand’s frequently rain-soaked roads.
- Specially engineered shoulder blocks for SUV cornering dynamics: The shoulder block geometry is purpose-tuned for the higher centre of gravity and lateral forces of SUV driving, delivering confident, stable cornering grip and composure through bends and lane changes.
- Heat-resistant compound composition: Formulated to resist heat build-up during sustained driving — maintaining consistent grip and performance across a full day of mixed urban and motorway use without degradation.
- Tread block arrangement for active noise cancellation: The block layout actively cancels road noise and cabin frequencies, delivering a noticeably quieter and more refined driving experience — particularly appreciated during longer family journeys.
- PHEV and EV compatible: Engineered to handle the instant torque delivery and additional weight of plug-in hybrid and electric SUVs, making it a genuinely versatile UHP summer tyre across the full range of modern SUV drivetrains — from traditional petrol to hybrid and full electric.
