Nokian Z G2 245/45 ZR18 100Y Summer tires

The newest member of the Nokian summer tires family is the Nokian Z G2, a tire developed to be high-performance, safe and durable. Designed for fast driving, the Nokian Z G2 clearly outperforms its competitors in demanding, difficult conditions. It is not afraid of even heavy temperature fluctuations or rain. Its driving response is precise, yet pleasant and quiet. The Nokian Z G2 is designed for sporty cars and fast driving and belongs to the UHP category, the top class of passenger car tires. The size range comprises nearly xx variants in the speed categories W (270 km/h) and Y (300 km/h), ranging from 16 all the way up to 20 . The product will be available for retail sales in Central Europe in the spring of 2008. The Nokian Z G2 has been developed and tested on fast European tracks, as well as on rough-surfaced roads, over several years. Special attention was paid to wet grip and the prevention of aquaplaning. Wear resistance was developed by means of thorough laboratory testing and driving hard durability tests on harsh asphalt surfaces. Nanotechnology and multi-layer structure: excellent wet grip, precise driving response The Nokian Z G2 is targeted at demanding consumers, and its top-of-the-range performance has been achieved with the help of the latest development and production technology. The key innovations that make the Nokian Z G2 unique are the multi-layer surface structure, the nanosilica compound and new surface geometry. These new innovations form the so-called Nokian Cool Zone Concept, says Product Manager Petri Niemi. The lowest layer in the multi-layer surface structure is a thin rubber layer that reduces heat emission and rolling resistance. The middle layer s compound features the latest nanotechnology. The flexible nanosilica compound of the intermediate layer provides quicker response to steering movements than traditional rubber compounds, resulting in sensitive and precise contact with the road.
