Vredestein Snowtrac 3 are the premium class’ winter tyres. Vredestein company’ Snowtrac 3 product is designed for low- and mid-capacity engines of passenger cars such as, for example, Volkswagen Polo or Mazda 3. Due to the introduction of the new compound’ composition in the production of the tread, the tyre’s performance is to be much better in comparison to its’ predecessors, Snowtrac and Snowtrac 2. Safety and driving’ precision were highly important issues in the construction process of Vredestein Snowtrac 3 tyre.
Vredestein Snowtrac 3 tyre tread’ profile was designed in such a way as to guarantee optimal adhesion to the road bed in winter conditions – on the wet and snowy surfaces. The tyre contains longitudinal groove which is technologically’ advanced and multi-gradual, arranged crosswise to the driving’ direction. Vredestein Snowtrac 3 has to attain maximum ability to drain off the water and slush from under the tyre owing to the application of open grooves. This effect is intensified by the rounded tyre’s tread. All of the above has to minimise the risk of hydroplaning and splush-planing. Silica-polymer compound- Optimum Silica & Polymer Processing (OS&PP) has been adapted in the construction of Vredestein Snowtrac 3. It has to guarantee good adhesion on the wet and snowy surface but also on the dry one. What is more, in order to ensure regular tread wear, additional, deepened cuttings have been used inside each of the grooves. Its’ changeable depth has to ensure optimal pressure’ transfer and also maintenance of the tyre’s properties despite tread wear. Regarding the driving’ comfort, Vredestein Snowtrac 3 tyre is really quiet as a result of the use of Centre Shift system which is based on the left and right profile’ side shift viewing the middle tyre’s belt. Such a solution also has to increase the passive safety.
Vredestein Snowtrac 3 tyre performs splendidly in winter conditions, even in the mountainous terrain. It is, therefore, recommended for the drivers who often drive on hard routes in winter.
Vredestein Snowtrac 3 is the winter tyre belonging to the premium class. The tyre is designed for low- and high-capacity engines of passenger cars.
