Product description & features

  • Asymmetric tread pattern
  • Excellent Aquaplaning resistance
  • Reduced braking distances
  • Exceptional handling and stability

The Sumitomo BC100 has been designed to provide drivers with confidence in both safety and performance.

Carefully designed by Sumitomo to feature broad circumferential grooves – spaced meticulously to deliver optimal performance – the BC100 has exceptional resistance to aquaplaning due to the rounded water evacuation systems that have been woven within the tyre. To provide additional confidence in wet conditions, the Sumitomo BC100 has a stiffened central rib to provide extra stability.

Created with a silica-rich compound design and a 5-rib asymmetric tread design, the BC100 delivers outstanding directional stability and handling, while also providing shorter braking distances. Thanks to the unique tread design, there is a notable increase in steering response in dry conditions.

The BC100 is available in 13-inch to 19-inch rim sized tyres.

I get very good performance from these tyres. In dry and wet conditions they perform very well. I would definitely buy the same brand again when I need to change them.

I no longer have the car but when I had it they were excellent value for money. - The tyres are performing very well only slight problem is at they are a firm ride, maybe they will get a bit softer after time. Otherwise excellent value for money.
