Nordman North 9 195/65R15, Winter, Touring tires.

Features and Benefits: Winter-weather performance; Upgraded controllability; Improved driving durability; Nordman North 9 TiresThe Nordman North 9 is a touring, winter tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. The model guarantees exceptional winter-weather performance. The ideal tread design, with the siping detail and the wide grooves, promotes great grip on ice- and snow-covered roads. These elements enable the tire to maintain consistent road contact and promote a safe performance. This tread pattern is also pinned for studs, which enables better traction on icy and snowy roads. This winter compound also keeps the rubber flexible in cold winter temperatures and does not allow the tire tread to deform in freezing conditions. Also, the tread has wide circumferential grooves, which eliminate water and slush from below the footprint and prevent hydroplaning. This tire boosts its controllability. Maneuvering is upgraded with the directional tread design's optimized elements. The sipe and groove placement generate friction when stopping, which significantly shortens the overall braking distance. Additionally, the shoulder blocks generate biting edges to increase their cornering ability. Maintaining road contact helps to enhance the tire's steering responsiveness and driving stability. This helps to improve the driver's control over the vehicle throughout the drive. The Nordman North 9 offers exceptional driving durability. This tire upgrades its high speed durability. The optimal tread design can easily follow the road surface, while the strong construction maintains the optimal tire shape under pressure. Also, the heat-resistant compound prevents pressure accumulation along the tread area. This combination guarantees excellent high speed performance. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
