Michelin Latitude Tour HP ZP (*) 255/50R19 107H XL AS A/S All Season Tire

Michelin Latitude Tour HP ZP. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Run flat tire; Comfortable driving experience; Fuel efficient drive; Enhanced handling ability; . OVERVIEW: The Michelin Latitude Tour HP ZP is a performance, all season tire manufactured for SUVs.The tire was manufactured as a run flat tire. It is capable of supporting the vehicle’s weight for a limited time in the case of air pressure loss. In other words, the tire is able to be driven on for 50 miles up to 50 mph after a puncture or cut makes it lose air pressure. This prevents the driver from being stranded on the side of the road and allows them to safely arrive at a destination where they can change or repair the damaged tire. These tires are made for vehicles without space for spare tires. They cannot be mixed with regular radial tires as their construction is heavier.The tire has great all weather traction and, thanks to the 2D Active Siping design, the tire performs well in wet and winter weather as well. The 2D Active Sipes provide additional biting edges to the tire in such conditions, permitting it to find good grip on snow and ice-covered road surfaces. The circumferential grooves actively avoid hydroplaning by eliminating water from beneath the tire footprint. A safer year round driving experience is guaranteed with these enhancements as it maintains constant road traction.The model is easily controlled thanks to the enhanced driving stability and steering responsiveness. The wide groove design of the tread pattern stabilizes the tread area and grants great driving stability. The internal structure’s Filament At Zero Degrees enhancement improves the steering responsiveness and accuracy. The tire is stable during the drive and it is quick and precise in its response to the driver’s commands. This ensures that the driver can confidently control the tire in all weather.The ComfortControl technology reduces the road noise and vibrations felt in the vehicle’s cabin. It offers an optimized tire pattern and precision manufacturing. The optimized footprint channels the airwaves through without letting them come into contact with the tread elements. This reduces the road noise that is generated while the tire’s in motion. The precision manufacturing ensures that the tire maintains constant road contact. The better road contact makes the tire follow the road surface closely and reduces the road vibrations felt by the passengers. This makes the drive more enjoyable, quiet and comfortable.The Latitude Tour HP ZP was made using the Green X technology that lowers the tire’s overall weight. The reduced weight takes the driving pressure off of the tire and decreases the rolling resistance. The rolling resistance controls how much energy the vehicle needs to keep the tire in motion, in other words, how severe is the driving pressure affecting the tire. The lessened rolling resistance lowers the vehicle’s fuel consumption and CO2 emissions which makes the tire more fuel and cost efficient. This specific tire is marked with (*) as it is the original equipment of BMW vehicles. 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.
