 Anti-uneven wear

 (A) Our standard tyres :

Pressure is applied dispropor-tionately to both sides of the ribs, which leads to uneven wear. 

(B) BluEarth RV-02 :

Evenly distributed contact pressure helps prevent uneven wear.

(1) Before contact (2) During contact (3) Treads (4) Road surface

 ■ Excellent wet performance:

       Nano-blend rubber designed specially for BluEarth RV-02 tyres (simulated image showing molecular structure)

■ Double Silica  

  Two types of silica are used: silica to enhance braking performance on wet surfaces, and silica to improve fuel efficiency.

■ Blend Polymer

  A multiple-polymer blend is used in pursuit of improved braking on wet surfaces, lower fuel consumption and increased wear resistance.
