- Excellent drainage capability thanks to two wide circumferential grooves.
- Superior lateral grip with a shoulder design inspired by racing tires.
- Optimized grip performance through innovative profile design and compounds.
Advanced Drainage Capability
The CR-S employs cutting-edge technology with two wide circumferential grooves on the inner tread, offering a sea/land ratio of 26.5%. This design, combined with a larger groove sidewall angle and rounded groove bottom angle, ensures exceptional drainage efficiency. By enhancing the drainage capability, the CR-S assures improved wet performance, allowing you to drive with confidence in the rain.
Exceptional Lateral Grip
Inspired by slick racing tires, the outer shoulder design of the CR-S offers unmatched lateral grip. This feature ensures exceptional handling ability, allowing the tire to maintain optimal traction during tight turns or aggressive driving on and off the track. The intermediate tread's micro circumferential groove design also contributes to heat dissipation, essential during dynamic driving.
Optimized Grip and Durability
The CR-S benefits from an optimized profile design that increases the tire contact patch, thereby enhancing grip performance. The new cap compound, generating more heat, helps the tire reach its optimum operating temperature more quickly, improving performance on both dry and wet surfaces. Furthermore, the sidewall's unique compound, incorporating specific fibers, increases stiffness, provides excellent support capacity, and reduces heat generation, extending the tire's lifespan.
