235/65R17 Nexen Winguard Winspike 3 2356517 Tire

235/65R17 Nexen Winguard Winspike 3 2356517 Tire The tire is manufactured with pre-molded holes, allowing for the installation of tire studs. This feature provides an extra layer of grip and traction on slippery, icy surfaces, which is especially beneficial in regions with severe winters. The tire features a directional tread design with V-shaped grooves. This pattern is highly effective at channeling water, slush, and melting snow away from the tire’s contact patch, which significantly reduces the risk of hydroplaning and improves wet-road stability. The Winguard Winspike 3 uses a winter-specific rubber compound. This material is formulated to remain flexible and pliable even in extremely low temperatures, which is crucial for maintaining optimal grip on snow and ice. The tread pattern is designed with multiple biting edges and zigzag sipes. These features work to dig into snowy and icy surfaces, providing enhanced traction for accelerating, braking, and cornering in winter conditions. The tread design, combined with Nexen’s “3D Kerf” technology, enhances the rigidity of the tread blocks. This results in improved handling, steering precision, and overall driving stability on winter roads, giving the driver more confidence and control.
