The Nankang SV-1 is a winter passenger tire that makes sure your driving experience will be safe. By equipping your ride with Nankang tires, you ensure a comfortable ride wherever you go.
Firstly, the smart sipe placement helps the Nankang SV-1 stick to icy or snowy roads, especially during braking or turning. By spreading the sipes across the tread evenly, the tire maintains a good grip on the road without wearing down too quickly. Moreover, the open shoulders improve traction when driving through deep snow, as they allow the model to dig in and push forward. Additionally, they help stabilize the tire during turns, so you can navigate icy corners with confidence. Then, the deep grooves push water, slush, and snow out from under the Nankang SV-1, keeping it in direct contact with the road. This reduces the chance of skidding or sliding, even in wet or slushy conditions.
Secondly, the special tread pattern handles the challenges of snow, ice, and slush, ensuring the tire remains effective in tough conditions. It also reduces noise, making your ride quieter and more comfortable. Equally important, the strong sidewalls prevent flexing under pressure, which helps it maintain stability, even at the maximum speed of 130 mph. Also, the winter rubber compound is specially formulated to stay flexible in cold temperatures. This flexibility allows the Nankang SV-1 to conform to the road’s surface, improving grip on ice and snow. And, this model goes very well with the Hyundai Accent, Mitsubishi Lancer, and Mazda MX-5. Finally, the available sizes on the US market come in both 14'' and 15'' rim diameter options.
