Summer ultra-high-performance tyre · 225/40R18
Understand this tyre
This is a summer UHP tyre using an asymmetric tread and aramid hybrid belt to keep its contact patch stable at speed. The high-silica compound and Aqua Hydro Block channels aim to improve wet grip and resist aquaplaning. You get steering precision aimed at NZ motorways and open roads, with even wear and reduced noise as secondary benefits.
- Drive on NZ motorways and open roads where steering precision matters
- Want confident wet braking in summer conditions
- Push your car through corners and want stable, repeatable grip
- Need a winter or all-season tyre for cold, frosty or snowy conditions
- Prioritise maximum ride softness over sharp, responsive handling

These guys are almost as fast and professional as a Formula One Pit Crew, with great prices to match. Big ups for transparently displaying your prices on your website, and for your focus on getting unstocked tyres in by midday next day. Called them at 3pm, had new tyres by 1pm today. Amazing service.
