Goodyear Eagle NCT 5: World Class Tyres

Posted by Charles under Tyres

When the entire world is involved in a constant spate of development to improve product design and through this enhance its efficiency and reduce its environmental impact, why should wheels that actually got us to where we are today be left out. Goodyear a formidable tyre manufacturing leader in the world has over the years through research, experience and innovative processes always been occupied with manufacturing groundbreaking tyres. Latest addition to its range of world class tyres is the Eagle NCT 5.

This environmentally friendly tyre combines most recent advancement in manufacturing processes with modern design to reduce energy consumption and make an effective utilisation of resources. The tyre is constructed using a recently developed silica based tread mix that diminishes the amount of energy consumed to make a tyre roll. This consequently leads to a reduction of fuel consumption by about 5 percent and a considerable reduction of CO2 emissions. The innovatively designed tyre lasts almost 25 percent longer than regular tyres. The newly developed compound not only reduces the weight of the tyre but also reduces the amount of material used in building it. The increased wet adhesion drastically improves the tyre’s performance on a wet surface.

The shoulder to centreline stiffness is extremely effective and helps in equivalent distribution of stress and load. The design incorporates radial shoulder blading which gives it extra biting edges this in-turn enhances the grip and lateral stability. The longitudinal grooves are excellent for dispersing the water and boosting the resistance against aquaplaning. The design of the Goodyear Eagle NCT 5 195.60 R15 88V tyres also employs a 4 pitch sequence that dramatically reduces the noise frequency and minimises the noise levels. The solid centre ribs provide additional support in maintaining a straight plane and tremendously improve the dry handling.

The Eagle NCT 5 is a synthesis of modern innovative design and the most recent development in manufacturing processes. It incorporates advanced technology to optimise the energy efficiency and through this improve the performance while reducing the environmental impact.

ADVAN Neova AD07: Get set to Zoom around

Posted by Jerry under Tyres

The ADVAN Neova AD07 represents the latest offering from Yokohama, and is the flagship of the company’s Extreme Performance Summer tyre range. It is specially developed to be used in sports car, sports coupe and performance sedan, an aspect that should encourage car enthusiast who love sport driving. The high point of the ADVAN Neova AD07 is that it is equally suitable for wet and dry roads and possesses high levels of traction, responsive handling, and makes for great control. It is interesting to note that it has been earlier used as Original Equipment (O.E.) on the Lotus Elise.

The ADVAN Neova AD07 utilises the much in demand Micro Silica (MS) tread compound so as to increase cornering stability and steering response while promoting more even wear. Five large circumferential and multiple directionally aligned lateral grooves are there as well that apart from preventing hydroplaning, augments wet traction.

Moreover, the tyre is specially structured to provide the necessary strength and uniform ride quality while ensuring high speed capability. It includes two wide steel belts supplemented by spirally wound nylon for the purpose. Then the sidewalls of the tyre are also taken proper care and are tuned to resist lateral deflection providing handling control and cornering stability.

Yokohama has carried out radical innovations and out of the box technology to develop the final product which is meant to provide you optimum service within a specific range of ambient temperatures. Like the other Advan summer tyres, including he Yokohama Advan ST, the Advan Neova AD07 must be properly stored. Therefore, the company has also clearly instructed users to use and store theses tyres at temperatures above -10 degrees Celsius, especially considering its compound characteristics.
