Kenda Vezda Touring A/S

OVERVIEW

The Kenda Vezda Touring A/S is a touring all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles. Kenda offers a 65,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.

The tire promotes great all weather traction. The detailed asymmetric tread design and the all season tire compound improve the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The asymmetric tread design upgrades the grip the tire has on the road surface with the detailed siping and notch pattern. The compound keeps the rubber flexibility thanks to the silica materials. The high-density siping detail upgrades the ice and snow grip, while the decoupling grooves increase the model's handling in snow. The circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint and promoting a safer wet and winter weather traction.

The tire guarantees great controllability. The asymmetric tread's maintained road contact boosts the tire's steering responsiveness and driving stability. The steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. The tread's high-density siping and notch detail improves the braking capability. They create friction between the tire and the road surface at the moment of braking which shortens the braking distance. The better control and braking ability improve the driving safety.

The tread design's computer-optimized pattern and the strategically placed tie bars lengthen the tread life. The tread design closely follows the road surface, while the tie bars stabilize the tread elements and prevent tread flexing. This extends the tread life by promoting even pressure distribution along the tread area. The equally spread out forces of acceleration, cornering and braking avoids the formation of irregular tread wear, promoting a longer lasting tread life and usability.

The Vezda Touring A/S ensures a quiet drive. The computer designed pattern features a variable pitch sequence that lowers the road noise levels heard during the drive. The variable pitch sequence creates a sound frequency that manages to negate the road noise generated while the tires are in motion. In this manner, the soundwaves are cancelled before they can reach the vehicle's cabin and ruin the passenger's driving comfort.

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.
