Cordiant Sport tread reviews
Indeed, a special place in the tire design is occupied by the tread. In the photo we see that the tire has a symmetrical arrangement of lamellas and checkers. Their angular ends contribute to the effective removal of water from the wheel to the outside. Also, this function is performed by the central groove, which not only reduces the risk of aquaplaning, but also makes the car as stable as possible on a dry track. Lamels provide effective grip of the wheels with the road.
