- that ensure minimal tread deformation, which lowers rolling resistance and leads the robustness of the tyres. It’s a technology of reinforced tread plies with a continuously wound steel wire of up to 400 metres long, depending on tyre size, inside the casing. The high tensile steel wire increases tyre strength and thus optimises the ground contact patch and delivers high mileage potential. This technology, Michelin said, provides greater stability throughout the tyre’s lifetime, helps reduce risk of sudden pressure loss for better vehi- cle control, extends mobility even when punctured, patch – thus, contributing to longer mileage and less
unexpected breakdown incidences.
