The 235/45R17 97V NS805 NEREUS WINTER TIRE is a budget-friendly winter tire designed for passenger cars and sedans. Its specialized compound and asymmetrical tread provide reliable traction and handling on snow, ice, and wet roads, with wide grooves to help reduce hydroplaning. The 235/45R17 97V XL tire is a dependable and affordable choice for winter conditions, and its reinforced construction is suitable for heavier vehicles.
- Specialized rubber compound: The tire features a specialized rubber compound engineered to stay soft and flexible in frigid temperatures. This ensures superior grip for braking and cornering on snow and ice.
- Asymmetrical tread with 3D kerfs: The tread’s asymmetrical pattern and numerous sipes (3D kerfs) create thousands of biting edges to maximize traction on ice and snow. This design improves handling and overall control in challenging winter conditions.
- Effective water and slush evacuation: Wide longitudinal grooves in the tread effectively channel away slush and water. This reduces the risk of hydroplaning and enhances stability on wet roads.
- Comfortable and quiet ride: Despite its robust winter performance, the tire is designed for a low noise level, providing a more comfortable driving experience.
- Robust construction: The tire’s side blocks are made of a stronger rubber compound, which allows for stable turns and contributes to the tire’s overall durability. The XL (extra load) construction provides a reinforced structure for heavier vehicles.
