Maxxis Victra Sport 5 (VS5) is an ultra-high performance summer tire designed to be installed on powerful passenger cars. The key feature of this model, presented in 2018, is its outstanding maneuverability, and the manufacturer, speaking about this new development, mentions the speed, grace, and dexterity of the leopard on the attack, directly comparing the model with this beast. The new model of the summer season 2019 is coming to replace the Maxxis Victra Sport VS01 in the company’s range. The new generation of Maxxis tires, engineered for high-performance cars, uses the renewed rubber compound, coupled with optimized tread pattern, which helped to improve the dry braking performance, as well as the ride comfort in comparison to the predecessor model. According to the tire maker, the UHP tire Maxxis VS-05 ensures about a 30% shorter stopping distance on wet pavement, as well as 10% more efficient dry braking performance.

The “bionic” tread design of Maxxis Victra Sport 5 is based on the symbol of a big cat, strong and independent: grooves with sharp corners and hidden biting edges look like leopard claws, while the ultra-sleek asymmetric sipes pay homage to the attack of this graceful animal.

The highly developed drainage system of this tire model, represented by wide circumferential grooves and tilted sipes, serves to quickly evacuate water from the contact area of the Victra Sport 5, thus increasing the driving safety in the rain

The massive blocks of Maxxis Victra Sport 5 shoulder areas with facets bent towards the edges of the tread increase the tire’s traction during maneuvering, as well as boost the braking efficiency on wet pavement.

The reinforced side walls of the tire increase its stability, allowing VS5 to confidently switch lanes and do cornering at high speeds.

Resistant to significant deforming influences, the inner carcass of the tire increases the control accuracy and grip stability provided by the Maxxis Victra Sport 5 in any driving conditions.
