Nexen Winguard Sport 2 is a winter tyre designed for passenger cars. This is the successor to the popular Winguard Sport model. In contrast to its predecessor, Winguard Sport 2 has a reinforced structure that prevents tyre damage and is more resistant to weight loads than the previous model.
The directional tread with "V" shape grooves provides a stable ride in winter conditions . The tyre very efficiently removes water, mud and snow. It transports the fluids preventing the channels from blocking . Thanks to this, the car maintains traction regardless of the condition of the surface. In the modern tread, three types of grooves have been used for better winter parameters:
An increased number of grooves and 3D cuts provides better handling and traction control, even in the worst weather conditions.
The model has used a modern locking groove that increases the angle of approach on snow covered surfaces. The tyre provides a better performance on roads covered with snow or water. The risk of aquaplaning has also been minimized.
The zig-zag grooves scattered throughout the tread surface optimise the parameters of winter driving, clinging to the surface and protecting against loss of control. By adding more edges, the tyre contact zone has been extended to the road.
Nexen Winguard Sport 2 is based on a modern silica compound that guarantees the tyre's full performance at low temperatures. The innovative selection of the rubber compound causes the tyre to wear evenly and its overall service life is extended.
The Nexen brand supplies its tyres as original equipment for cars such as: Porsche, Volkswagen, Renault and Fiat Chrysler. Currently, the company has four very modern research facilities in Korea, China, the United States and Europe. During the construction of their new factories, the company has used modern, environmentally friendly solutions. The growing popularity of Nexen products is due to the high quality of products offered, available at affordable prices.
