GT Radial Touring VP Plus
OVERVIEW
The GT Radial Touring VP Plus is a touring all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles. GT Radial offers a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty.
The tire guarantees great all weather road grip. The all season tire compound and the symmetric tread design enhance the dry, wet and winter weather traction. The all weather compound keeps its rubber flexibility and traction throughout the year, including in winter weather. The symmetric tread design with the optimal siping detail boosts the grip the tire has on the road surface all year round. The tread also features wide circumferential grooves that disperse water and slush from below the tire's footprint. This enhances the all weather performing capability and power.
The constant road contact boosts the model's controllability. The ribbed design with the continuous center rib enhances the tire's steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, it stabilizes the structure under the all weather driving pressure and improves the steering response and accuracy to the driver's commands. The shoulder tread block placement improves the cornering capability. It upgrades the cornering and maneuvering ability by increasing the number of biting edges firmly gripping the road surface. The better control over the tires and upgraded maneuvering capability ensures a secure year round performing ability.
The Touring VP Plus guarantees a comfortable drive. The symmetric pattern's flat footprint closely follows the road surface at all times, which boosts the comfort levels. The close road contact absorbs the shock of driving, which greatly reduces the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin. The road noise levels are also decreased. The tread design features a variable pitch sequence which creates a sound frequency to cancel out the road noise generated during the drive. In this manner, the tire boosts the driving enjoyment and ensures a quiet driving experience.
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.
