Accelera Phi 255/45R18, All Season, High Performance tires.

Features and Benefits: All weather traction; Fuel efficient performance; Improved driving comfort levels; Upgraded cornering capability; Accelera Phi TiresThe Accelera Phi is a high performance, all season tire made to be mounted on passenger vehicles and SUVs. The tire has exceptional all weather traction and, thanks to the asymmetric tread design, it grips the road well in dry, wet and winter weather. The special compound keeps the rubber flexibility in all weather conditions, while the tread manages to firmly grip the road surface at all times. The circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by eliminating water from below the tire footprint for a safer driving experience. The dry and wet weather performing capability is further improved by the tread design. The dynamic medium lateral groove increases the wet weather traction and helps lower the rolling resistance. The reduced rolling resistance lessens the vehicle's fuel and energy consumption and CO2 emissions. Not only does the model become safer to drive in wet weather this way, but it also becomes more environmentally friendly and fuel efficient. The straight medium rib of the tread design improves the tire's flexibility and stability during dry road driving. The better flexibility and stability allow the tire to perform to its highest capabilities as the tire maintains its optimal tire shape against the external driving forces affecting it. The better stability improves the model's controllability and makes it easier to steer in all weather conditions. The Accelera Phi's shoulder tread design increases the cornering ability and helps lower the road noise. The shoulder tread design provides additional biting edges to grip onto the road during cornering, increasing the cornering ability and power. They also channel the airwaves from the tire footprint which prevents road pattern noise from forming, offering a quiet driving experience. 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.
