OVERVIEW
The Toyo Extensa A/S is a touring all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles. Toyo offers a 50,000 mile tread wear warranty with the H speed rated sizes and a 65,000 mile warranty with the S and T speed rated sizes of this model.
The tire offers first-rate all weather traction with the symmetric tread design. The multi-wave siping detail boosts the winter weather road gripping ability and ensures a safer all weather driving experience. The tread designs four wide circumferential grooves decrease the possibility of hydroplaning as they actively disperse water and slush from below the tire footprint.
The tread design increases the models controllability. The shoulder ribs increase the tires controllability by improving the steering responsiveness and driving stability in all weather. The tire becomes quick and precise in its response to the drivers commands. This also secures the tire against the driving pressure affecting the tire in all conditions. The multi-wave siping design improves the braking capability. They increase the biting edges during braking situations and promote a shorter braking distance. The result is an easily controllable tire.
The shoulder ribs of the symmetrical tread design boost the tread life. They actively prevent irregular wear patterns from forming across the tread area. This is achieved as the tread design equally distributes the driving pressure along the tread surface. As the forces of acceleration, cornering and braking are evenly distributed on the tread, the pressure is not concentrated on one area of the tire and uneven wear is avoided, extending the tires tread life and usability significantly.
The Extensa A/S offers a comfortable and quiet drive. The tread designs variable pitch angle increases the tires road contact, ensuring that it closely follows the road surface. This decreases the road vibrations felt in the vehicles cabin during the drive. The variable pitch sequence also negates the road noise generated while the tires are in motion. They are cancelled out by the sound frequency the tread design generates while the tires are in motion, guaranteeing an enjoyable driving experience.
