Westlake RP19



Description

The Westlake RP19 is a premium touring all-season tire designed for compact cars and sedans, prioritizing tread longevity and comfort. It features a "super mileage" compound for 25% longer tread life compared to competitors, along with a wider tread design for balanced dry/wet traction. The variable pitch tread blocks reduce noise, making it ideal for urban commuting and highway driving in mild climates.

Features & Benefits

  • Super Mileage Compound: UTQG 520 A A rating ensures extended tread life, ideal for cost-conscious drivers.
  • Wider Tread Width: Enhances road contact for improved stability and comfort on uneven surfaces.
  • Variable Pitch Tread: Reduces road noise and minimizes vibration for quieter rides.
  • All-Season Versatility: Reliable performance in light rain and dry conditions, though not rated for severe snow or ice.
  • Balanced Wet Traction: Lateral grooves and siping improve water evacuation, reducing hydroplaning risks.

Year Released

Launched in 2013, the RP19 targets drivers in warm to temperate climates needing durability over high performance.

Regions Availability

Exclusively sold in Mexico and Central/South America.

Vehicle Compatibility / Popular Vehicle Fitments

Fits compact cars and midsize sedans, including:

  • Volkswagen Gol (165/70R13)
  • Nissan Tiida (185/60R15)
  • Chevrolet Aveo (195/60R14)
  • Toyota Yaris (175/70R14)
  • Hyundai Accent (205/65R15)

Note: Confirm fitment with a tire specialist or vehicle manufacturer.

Final Thoughts

The RP19 suits budget-focused drivers in Mexico and Central/South America seeking a durable, low-maintenance tire for daily commuting. Its reinforced compound and wide tread deliver consistent wear and adequate wet/dry grip, though it lacks the refinement of premium touring tires in noise suppression and handling precision. The absence of 3PMSF certification limits its use in winter conditions, making it best for regions with mild winters. A pragmatic choice for value-driven buyers, but consider alternatives like Michelin Defender T+H for superior wet performance and comfort.
