Description
The Delinte WD42 is a studdable winter/snow tire designed for passenger vehicles. Tailored specifically for the challenging winter conditions of the Scandinavian countries, the WD42, much like its counterpart the WD52, offers impressive grip on icy, frozen, and extremely slippery terrains. The tire's studs are designed to penetrate the icy layer on roads, ensuring optimal grip and steering control. The tire also proudly carries the 3PMSF (Three Peak Mountain Snow Flake) winter label, a testament to its winter performance capabilities.
Features & Benefits
- Superior Winter Traction: The wide interconnected V-shape pattern grooves are adept at expelling water and slush, ensuring excellent traction on winter roads.
- Rubber Foam Technology: The inclusion of tiny bubbles in the rubber compound decreases hardness at low temperatures. This results in enhanced flexibility, ensuring better ground contact and improved grip during colder conditions.
- Optimized Stud Hole Alignment: With 14 columns of stud holes, the WD42 is designed to offer maximum grip and a shorter braking distance on snowy or icy road surfaces.
- 3PMSF (Three Peak Mountain Snow Flake) Label: This certification indicates that the tire meets required performance criteria in snow testing to be considered a snow tire.
