Product description & features
The carcass construction and tread design of the Avanza AV10 are an ideal compromise between the need to carry modestly heavy loads, prolong the life of a tyre and help light vans handle well.
Toughened sidewalls with a hard-wearing rubber compound are designed to take the knocks and scrapes on contact with kerbs, while some fitments have high load indices to cope with substantial cargo. The tread pattern is designed to swiftly disperse water from beneath the contact patch, as well as help to reduce noise levels and, in combination with the carcass design, provide good straight-line stability motorways.
What are summer tyres?
Summer tyres are specifically designed for warm weather conditions, particularly during the summer season. This type of tyre performs best when in seasons with warmer temperatures - above 7°C.
How does a summer tyre perform better in summer?
The technologies and tread patterns used in a summer tyre mean the tyres have high-quality features that are of benefit to driving in warm conditions. They typically use a softer rubber compound – designed for good grip and traction when driving on dry and wet roads.
Can you use summer tyres in winter?
Whilst summer tyres still offer adequate performances in wet and cooler conditions, it is recommended that you change. The tread design and technologies that are featured in summer tyres can harden in colder temperatures, resulting in reduced flexibility and decreased traction on snow and ice.
