Yokohama Parada Spec-X
OVERVIEW
The Yokohama Parada Spec-X is a performance and high performance, depending on the speed rating of the specific tire size, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.
The tire has remarkable all weather traction and, thanks to the tread pattern, it grips the road well in wet, dry and winter road conditions. The center circumferential grooves and the directional tread pattern increase the water dispersal and prevent dangerous hydroplaning situations this way. The tire becomes safer to use, offering a weather versatile model.
The tire offers a longer lasting tread life. The reinforced shoulder blocks and the dimples in the tread work together to slow down the tread wear rate of the tire. They prevent irregular wear by evenly distributing the force of acceleration, cornering and braking across the tread area. The dimples also help relieve heat buildup on the tire, making sure that the tire wear is even. These two factors working together extend the tread life, since the tire wears evenly, it can be used for a longer period of time.
The safety is further enhanced with the upgraded cornering and braking capability. The reinforced shoulder blocks provide additional biting edges for cornering, improving the cornering ability, power and stability. The directional tread pattern enhances the braking capability of the tire by building up heat at the moment of braking. The braking distance is shortened as a result. The better braking and cornering stability upgrade the tire's year round safety.
The Parada Spec-X offers a quiet driving experience. The variable pitch tread pattern lowers the road and pattern noise that's generated while the tires are in motion by creating a sound frequency that cancels out the noise created. The lowered noise levels heard in the cabin of the vehicle increase the enjoyment and comfort of the drive.
Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
