Summary

Description

The CST Adreno H/P Sport AD-R8 is a high-performance summer tire engineered for light trucks and SUVs, prioritizing sporty handling, durability, and fuel efficiency. Its asymmetric tread pattern features a closed shoulder design to reduce road noise, while a semi-silica tread compound enhances wet braking performance and rolling resistance. The robust carcass construction ensures stability under heavy loads and resilience against urban road hazards like potholes.

Features & Benefits

  • Semi-Silica Tread Compound: Improves wet grip and reduces rolling resistance for better fuel efficiency without compromising dry-road responsiveness.
  • Asymmetric Tread Design: Enhances cornering stability and steering precision, adapting to aggressive driving styles.
  • Closed Shoulder Profile: Minimizes noise generation for a quieter ride, even at higher speeds.
  • Reinforced Carcass Construction: Withstands impacts and uneven surfaces, extending tread life in demanding conditions.
  • EU Label Ratings: Rolling Resistance Class C, Wet Grip Class B, Noise Level 73 dB (B-rated).

Year Released

Launched in 2017, the Adreno H/P Sport AD-R8 remains CST’s flagship summer performance tire for SUVs in target markets.

Regions Availability

This tire is distributed in Central America, South America, and Europe.

Vehicle Compatibility / Popular Vehicle Fitments

The CST AD-R8 suits mid-size to large SUVs and crossovers, including:

  • Volkswagen Tiguan, Touareg
  • BMW X3, X5
  • Mercedes-Benz GLC, GLE
  • Audi Q5, Q7
  • Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, Hilux SW4
  • Ford Ranger, Everest

Note: Always consult with a tire specialist or the vehicle’s manufacturer to ensure correct tire fitment.

Final Thoughts

The Adreno H/P Sport AD-R8 targets SUV owners in Central/South America and Europe seeking sport-oriented summer performance with everyday durability. Its reinforced construction and semi-silica compound address urban wear-and-tear while maintaining responsive handling, though it lacks the aggressive tread depth needed for off-road adventures. The tire’s competitive wet grip and noise reduction make it a practical choice for drivers prioritizing comfort and fuel efficiency on paved roads. While not a premium-brand alternative, it offers a cost-effective balance of sportiness and longevity for regional driving demands.
