GT Radial Champiro WinterPro HP
OVERVIEW
The GT Radial Champiro WinterPro HP is a performance winter tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.
The tire offers great controllability. The winter weather tire compound and the tread pattern work together to ensure constant road contact. The better contact with the road surface and enhanced traction improve the model's controllability. They upgrade the steering response time and accuracy to the driver's commands and stabilize the structure against the driving pressure affecting the model. The maintained road contact and the tread design's cross-cut grooves work together to shorten the braking distance. They create friction at the moment of braking, significantly shortening the braking distance even on ice- and snow-covered road surfaces. The performance compound and the flat footprint manage to upgrade the tire's high speed performance. The constant road contact enables the tire to safely perform at high speeds even in colder winter weather situations.
The winter weather compound and asymmetric tread design, with the high-density siping detail increase the winter weather, ice and snow traction. The special sunflower oil compound guarantees first-rate winter weather traction, as the compound maintains the rubber flexibility even in the coldest winter conditions. The high siping density and the cross-cut grooves improve the number of biting edges gripping the ice- and snow-covered road surfaces, boosting the winter weather performance. The tread's circumferential and cross-cut grooves avoid hydroplaning. They disperse water and slush from below the tire's footprint and ensure a secure winter weather driving experience. As a result, the tire has received the tire industry's three mountain peak and snowflake symbol for its exceptional performance in the harshest winter weather.
The Champiro WinterPro HP promotes a longer lasting tread life. The asymmetric tread design enables the tire to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. While the tire is in motion, its flat footprint equally circulates the forces of acceleration, cornering and braking across the tire's surface. The evenly spread out pressure avoids the formation of irregular tread wear on, which lengthens the tread life and, with it, the tire's usability.
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.
