The Falken Eurowinter HS02 is a mid-range winter tyre. They are designed for discerning drivers who value, above all, driving confidence and road safety in all conditions. Compared to its predecessor, the model is distinguished by up to 9% less weight, which has a positive effect on the economy of travel.
The designers of the acclaimed Japanese brand wanted to ensure balanced performance on dry, wet and snowy surfaces by using two cooperating sipe systems in the directional tread:
The central zone of the tread features special 3D Miura-Ori sipes designed to effectively increase grip on snowy or wet surfaces. Numerous edges dig into the snow, optimising tyre contact with the road.
The tyre's shoulders use interlocking 3D sipes to improve tread stiffness when driving on dry or wet surfaces. This significantly improves the stability of the car, even at higher speeds.
However, the double fin system is not the only innovation in the Eurowinter HS02. The lightweight tyre structure with an optimised shape has been created using 4D-Nano Design rubber compound technology, which not only affects the fuel efficiency of the car, but also the longer lifespan of the tyres.
You will also appreciate the special stepped chamfering of the edges of the tread blocks after the first routes together. Pomagają one optymalizować trakcję podczas przyspieszania na zimowych nawierzchniach, a także przy hamowaniu. As a result, you can enjoy driving more and feel safer as you cover more miles on the road.
