Mileage Plus Technology
High tread elasticity and flexibility results in less fractures caused by rough road conditions (over a wide range of temperatures).
Wet Braking Technology
Lower compound stiffness facilitates block bending and wiping out of water. Longer and increased number of gripping edges facilitates water evacuation.

The tyres are great. Just had my MOT and no tyres need replacing yet so I’m very happy. I use to have at least one replaced every year.
