On the road the tyres certainly lived up to the billing, as the D06’s wet grip is remarkable with little loss in traction and braking performance experienced when conditions got wet. This is thanks largely in part to the tyre’s wiper block design, which not only increases the road contact area, but its sharp and angular shape enable it to disperse water easily with its “Edge-Effect” that breaks the water tension and reduces the water-film between tyre and road surface. From there the D06’s four wide longitudinal grooves enables it to channel the water out easily, clearing the way for the tyres to grip the road.

ECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS

Excellent braking performance as if on dry road

The wiper blocks design (individualised block design) increase the road contact area. The Edge-Effect reduces the water-film between tire and road edges which acts as a wiper, ensuring excellent braking performance on wet.

Optimized web handling

Four equally distributed wide longitudinal grooves accelerate water evacuation and equalize water dispersion rate. Leaving no water on the surface of contact area, delivers the best grip of tires to the road surface.

Excellent grip level at any utmost conditions

Advanced Silica Compound Technology accommodates wider operating temperature compared to the predecessor. Enhanced grip tread compound achieves better traction.

Innovative Sun & Rain indicator

Dry & wet season indicator shows clearly when to change your tires for best optimum wet performances. Reduces the hassle to check the remaining tread depth of tires.
