Latest generation SUV/Car tyre technology

The latest technology makes a massive difference to strength, stability, performance and value for money. Here are the 3 areas to check - just remember T.C.C:

 

 

 

TREAD 800X110px

Like shoes, your tyres must suit the places you want to go. You wouldn’t wear hiking boots to work or high heels to the beach. Here are the latest features your SUV/Car tyres should have:

 

Stabiledge™ Technology keeps the tread open under the pressure of driving for maximum traction. This gives you excellent stability, better handling and a more 'on-centre' feel.

 

Specially designed 3D Micro Gauge™ Sipes allow the tread blocks to interlock for maximum stability. This gives you increased traction, handling and safety, even at half worn.

 

Indicators change as your tyres wear, making it easy to determine the tread life remaining. This gives you convenience, confidence and safety you can see.

 

Higher Treadwear and Traction Ratings give you up to 2.8 times the mileage, more grip in the wet with shorter stopping distances, compared to other leading brands.

 

 

 

CARCASS 800X110px

A tyre’s carcass is like a house’s foundation. You need a strong foundation for the construction that goes on top. 

It’s the same with tyres. You might be surprised to learn that while tread is critical, it’s the carcass that accounts for up to 70% of a tyres performance.

 

What you can’t see under the tread is the foundation that the tread sits on. Cooper has developed a specific construction to meet the requirements of today's SUV drivers.

 

R-Tech Engineering gives you improved handling and a smoother ride needed for your high riding SUV. R-Tech Engineering can be broken down into two main features:

- Variable Density Nylon, which ensures a comfortable ride.

- Extended bead filler, which reinforces the sidewall and improves lateral stability for safer handling, faster steering response and more control in an emergency (like sudden evasive lane changes).

  

High tensile construction gives you maximum strength and more protection with a higher load capacity. High Tensile Cords give you 33% more strength than standard tensile cords. Super Tensile Steel Belts give you 15% more strength than high tensile steel belts.

 

 

COMPOUND 800X130px

We all know the quality of plastics differs greatly - some are brittle while others are strong and flexible. It’s the same with the quality of the compound in tyres. Coupled silica is the latest generation in compounds.

 

Advanced silica compounds give you excellent wet traction and highway handling whilst lowering rolling resistance for more grip and fuel efficiency than other traditional tyres. Cooper Tires tread compound is uniquely-formulated with up to 4 times more silica than other premium leading brands.
