Nexen SB-802
This model is a standard touring all-season tire developed especially for drivers of passenger vehicles for whom responsive handling, year-round traction, and ride comfort are the main priorities.
The SB-802 comes with an advanced tread compound molded into a symmetric tread pattern with S-shaped siping detail that provides extra biting edges for good traction on ice- and snow-covered road surfaces. One of the most notable facts of this model is a tread design with special center and shoulder block ribs that keep the tire’s road contact at all times, which effectively boosts the steering responsiveness and stability on the road. Due to the latest innovations in the tire industry, the SB-802 promotes a longer-lasting tread life, good fuel efficiency, and less CO2 emissions.
For safety reasons, the tire presents three circumferential grooves, and lateral grooves actively resist hydroplaning by eliminating water and slush from below the tire’s footprint. To increase the load and passenger safety inside the tire we can find a durable internal structure that includes special steel belt construction designed to add extra durability and strength.
The Nexen SB-802 is available only in 15-inch sizes, with a T-speed rating backed by a limited miles tread warranty. It is one of the best options for a wide range of global cargo and passenger vans.
