Cordiant Comfort 2 SUV 215/65 R16 102H summer Review

Cordiant Comfort 2 SUV The Cordiant Comfort 2 SUV summer tire is one of the new models launched at the Yaroslavl plant after it came under the control of the Sibur concern. Designed for compact crossovers that are rarely off the paved roads. It is a special version of the passenger car tire of the same name, differs from it in a more rigid carcass and breaker. Confident behavior in all conditions The tire is characterized by increased steering precision and stable traction when braking, both on dry and wet surfaces. These properties are provided by a whole range of technical solutions that affect almost all elements of the tire design. In particular, the methods of three-dimensional computer modeling were used in the development. With their help, it was possible to select such a profile of the running part of the tread, at which the largest contact area with the road surface is achieved. At the same time, it is almost square, thanks to which the grip becomes not only better, but also more stable, despite the continuous impact on the tire of multidirectional acceleration forces. Another factor that determines confident behavior under any road conditions is the design of the tread shoulder zones. They have an increased width, which gives the blocks located here increased rigidity. This feature is manifested during maneuvering, when the tire retains grip and directional stability even with strong lateral accelerations. It is also worth noting the variety of elements of the drainage system. The longitudinal grooves play the role of a water reservoir, which are diverted from the contact patch by a network of thin lamellas. The result is a high resistance to aquaplaning. The tire tread is made from a rubber compound with a high silica content. This component gives the tire elasticity at low temperatures, which ensures its tighter fit to the road surface. In addition, the composition of the compound includes polymers that increase tensile and tensile strength. This feature ensures the integrity of the tread during long-term movement at high speed. Improved comfort The tire tread has two layers. The outer tread is made from an elastic compound that absorbs shock from small bumps. This gives the tire a smooth ride and eliminates most of the low frequency vibrations. The inner layer, on the contrary, is made very rigid. It improves handling and reduces rolling resistance. Reduced rolling resistance This model is characterized by reduced rolling resistance. It comes with several features. One of them is the low weight of the tire. It is made with minimal use of metal. The steel cord is used in only one of the two layers of the breaker. The remaining elements of the power frame are made of nylon. The physical and chemical properties of this material in combination with the spiral winding made it possible to significantly reduce the weight of the tire and at the same time increase
