The tyre meets the European Union's requirements for winter tyres
Carries the 3PMSF (Three Peak Mountain Flake) symbol, which is awarded after the model in question has been thoroughly tested for snow grip.
BFGoodrich Winter Slalom Ksi is a model of tyre that was developed specifically for 4x4 (including those for SUVs) vehicles for use during the winter season. The tyre offers mainly maximum control on snow, very good traction and braking on ice, as well as great handling on dry roads.
BFGoodrich Winter Slalom Ksi offers high control on the snow thanks to two elements of the tyre. First, a dense network of bi-directional sipes improve traction when "pulling away", and make the braking distance shorter, and handling even more precise. A very good performance on snow is also a distinctive achievement for the deep tread on the shoulders of the tyre, which makes the tyre efficiently drain water, melted snow, whilst delivering good mobility in deep snow.
BFGoodrich Winter Slalom Ksi achieves very good grip and short braking distances through an optimized rubber compound, which is used in the construction of the tyre. In addition, the manufacturer took care of a greater tyre surface contact with the ground, which also significantly improves its grip.
BFGoodrich Winter Slalom Ksi also does not disappoint in dry conditions. The slats constructed in two directions provide excellent tyre stability and maximum control over the car. The special design of the tread edge also makes the tyre wear evenly. The same parameter also ensures proper tyre ground pressure, which makes the tyre erode slowly and needs to be replaced less frequently.
BFGoodrich Company was founded by Benjamin Franklin Goodrich in 1870. It then created a rubber factory and laboratory, which ten years later helped to create the first car tyre. In 1903, the tyres were fitted to a car that drove across the United States. In the same year, BFGoodrich tyres were noticed by Henry Ford, who placed them on his premier model A. What's more, the products of this brand were even equipped on the space shuttle in 1977.
