Summer tyres 2017

Stops you in time

Mastering the ExtremesOur unique know-how to design winter tyres for the northern latitudes, driven with a passion to innovate solutions that improve safety of living environment, is also applied to design the most advanced summer tyres.

The northern living in Finland, on both sides of the Arctic Circle, has shaped us to adapt to the demanding and sometimes harsh natural conditions while accumulating know-how to master the varying extremes of four seasons. We know by experience that the nature is unpredictable and safe co-existing demands constant improvement and innovation – clever outdoor clothing, multilayered windows and studded winter tyres, to mention a few.

Under the varying Central European conditions, there is a constant threat of aquaplaning. This makes wet grip and handling the most important characteristics of a tyre. Alongside the forerunner safety features, our tyres are pleasantly quiet and economical, offering complete driving pleasure.

Nokian Tyres’ premium summer range masters rough roads, heavy rains and scorching heat with ease. Our selec-tion of summer tyres offer you the tyres you need for your car and driving style. They stop you in time when nature surprises.

Testing at the Extremes

No matter what your car is like, the tyres are its only point of contact with the road. Our tyres are tested under extreme conditions. They supplement the safety systems of your car and do what you should expect: stop and steer safely, with-out raising your or your passengers’ pulse.

At our own test centres in Finland: Ivalo above the Arctic Circle and Nokia at our home town, we simulate driving ex-tremes during all seasons and under all possible conditions. We also perform tyre testing worldwide, on different road surfaces and in quickly changing weather.

In addition to our modern test equipment and precise in-struments, the observations of our experienced test drivers ensure careful testing. As a result, we create summer tyres tailored for demanding and varying conditions.

A new test centre in Spain

Nokian Tyres will be opening a new, versatile tyre test centre for summer and winter tyres in Santa Cruz de la Zarza, Spain, during 2017.

This new test centre allows for year-round product devel-opment and testing on demanding and varying tracks. The benefits of testing in varying conditions will trickle down to ordinary drivers, as the tyres are developed and tested to offer even safer driving experience without compromising on other important features.

Aramid Sidewalls

Durability and protection for surprising situations. Extremely durable Aramid staple fibres, which are also successfully used in bulletproof vests, reinforce the sidewall to make it exceptionally resistant to wear and cuts.

Coanda Technology

Effective Aquaplaning Protection. The curved, ramp-like design of the tread blocks on the inner shoulder guides and accelerates the flow of water from the longitudinal grooves into the transverse grooves. The Coanda effect is also utilised to improve the aerodynamics of aeroplane wings and Formula 1 cars.

Polished Grooves

Safety on wet roads. The polished main grooves of the tyre serve both a stylish appearance and functionality. The polished and slippery main grooves allow water to flow easily and effectively.

Silent Groove Design

More kilometres, less noise. The circular indentations on the walls of the transversal grooves control the airflow. They prevent the creation of an unpleasant, howling sound. The design makes driving comfortably quiet.

Driving Safety Indicator (DSI)

Comfort and safety. The Driving Safety Indicator (DSI) on the centre rib indicates tread depth. You can check the amount of remaining tread in millimetres by examining the row of numbers on the tread. The numbers disappear as the tyre wears down. Wearing of the drop symbol indicates the risk of aquaplaning.

Dangers of aquaplaning

In dry summer conditions the driver does not really need to think about the tyres at all. When a thunderstorm takes you by surprise and suddenly fills the grooves in the road with water then aquaplaning is an obvious problem.

The best way to prevent aquaplaning is to use new tyres. Even new tyres do not completely eliminate the risk of aquaplaning, but it is possible to control the car as long as you adjust the driving speed to the conditions.

Lost feel - lost grip

When there is less than four millimetres of tread in the tyres, the tyres’ wet grip and aquaplaning properties essentially deteriorate; the risk of aquaplaning, in particular, greatly increases. Furthermore, the breaking distance is longer and the car will skid easier. Tests conducted by Nokian Tyres show that with a worn-out tyre (tread less than 1.6 mm, approximately 5 mm of water on the road), aquaplaning will occur when driving in a curve at the speed of 76 km/h, whereas the aquaplaning speed for new tyres is 96 km/h.

Keeping your tyres in good condition and driving proactively can reduce the

risk of aquaplaning.

Nokian eLine 2 The AA-rated Nokian eLine 2 summer tyre for mid-sized cars ensures reliable top performance under all weather conditions. It has the best possible class, A, in the EU tyre label’s wet grip and fuel efficiency categories. The precise driving feel and optimal comfort can be felt and seen from the first moments of spring until late autumn. A unique innovation, Nokian Tyres Coanda Technology, guides and accelerates the removal of water from between the tyre and the road, thus effectively preventing aquaplaning.

Ultimate control on wet road Unique green motoring, fuel savings of up to 0.6 litres per 100 km Premium driving comfort at any speed

Ultimate Green Safety Your Tyre Choice Matters

Greener mobility and an eco-friendlier future involve all of us. Fuel consumption is the most significant envi-ronmental impact of your tyres. Lower fuel consumption equals less harmful greenhouse gas emissions.

Lowering the rolling resistance of tyres is at the core of our development work. A tyre that rolls lighter consumes less fuel, thereby causing lower carbon dioxide emissions. High-quality raw materials and natural material choices support our principle of sustainable safety. The safe characteristics need to remain virtually unchanged throughout the service life of the product.

Nokian eLine 2 is a green pioneer; its wet grip and fuel ef-ficiency (rolling resistance) are in the EU tyre label’s best cat-egory, class A. The state-of-the-art rolling resistance amounts to fuel savings of up to 0.6 l/100 km compared to the tyre with the weakest rating.

We are also developing innovative solutions that reduce rolling noise in order to allow you to enjoy silent and more comfortable driving. Reducing external rolling noise adds to general comfort in city centres and peaceful rural routes alike.

Comfort and Economy

The Nokian iLine summer tyre rolls pleasantly and safely in any summer weather. It offers first-class fuel efficiency, which amounts to greener driving for smaller and mid-sized family cars. The top-notch driving feel remains stable and reliable even under extreme conditions. The unique Venturi Grooves effectively prevent aquaplaning and the pine oil added to the rubber compound maximises tyre durability.

Uncompromising safety Stable and pleasantly silent Low rolling resistance saves fuel and preserves the environment

Cool Performer F1 champion Mika Häkkinen:

Tyres need to give great confidence

Mika Häkkinen, two-time Formula 1 champion and a brand ambassador for Nokian Tyres is an enthusiastic supporter of safe driving. After joining team Nokian Tyres, Häkkinen has shared his valuable experience from the F1 world with the company’s R&D crew to advance the development of ever-safer tyres.

“I would say from my experience in Formula 1, that in ex-treme situation and in very high speed driving the thing that is the most required from a tyre is maximum grip especially in the corners. The tyre needs to give the driver great con-fidence.

When a road car gets into extreme situation, same kind of qualities are required from the tyres like the tyres in Formula 1 cars. Tyres need to have good balance and they need to give instant feedback for the driver – that way the driver can respond to the things that the car is doing, and the tyre doesn’t give any surprises.

I have seen what the Nokian Tyres team is doing: they concentrate on the safety all the time – building the tyre so that if you go into extreme situation, the driver al-ways has the feel and control of the car. And of course, the more consist-ent a tyre is, the more enjoyable it is to drive in high performance situation,” Häkkinen sums his experiences.

The Nokian zLine summer tyre is tailored for fast driving. It belongs to the UHP (ultra high performance) category, the top class for passenger car tyres. The sporty Nokian zLine excels under extreme conditions and is not afraid of changing road conditions or large tem-perature changes. Its tread compound, nanotechnology layered structure and asymmetrical inside-outside tread pattern provide excellent wet grip and driving comfort. The multi-layer structure also lowers rolling resistance and reduces heat generation.

Stable, precise, and quiet Retains its accurate driving properties in high speed driving Excellent safety on wet roads

One car, two wheels, over 186 km/h!

The new world record for the fastest side wheelie was measured at Seinäjoki Airport in Finland on 31 August 2016. The world record speed was achieved when Nokian Tyres’ product development, Vianor’s professional pit crew and well-known stunt driver Vesa Kivimäki combined their strengths. The tyres on Kivimäki’s car had been reinforced with Nokian Tyres Aramid Sidewall technology.

The role of the tyres becomes very important at ex-treme speeds. This is especially true when two tyres – in practice, two palm-sized patches – are the only contact with the road. In order to break the record, the vehicle needed tyres that were as durable as possible. Nokian Tyres’ Aramid Sidewall technology allowed for constructing a sidewall that is particular-ly resistant to wear and cuts. The extremely strong aramid fibre is also utilised by the aerospace and defence industries.

Precision, Power and Comfort for SUV drivers

Powerful four-wheel drive vehicles pose tougher de-mands on tyres in terms of both performance and struc-ture. SUV tyres must have a precise driving feel, and they must withstand higher wheel loads and work reliably under extreme speeds. SUV drivers also value versatile features, and want their tyres to be comfortable and quiet like passenger car tyres.

What are the recommended inflation pressures?You can find the correct tyre pressure in the vehicle’s manual. The pressure levels must be inspected by using a calibrated gauge with cold tyres every three (3) weeks. When the car is heavily loaded, you need to increase the tyre pressure by 10 –15 per cent. Special attention should be paid to vans and motor homes with a tyre pressure that should be close to double compared to ordinary cars. Hard loads require more tyre pressure. Pressure levels of C-tyres targeted for heavy use are typically approx. 4 – 5.5 bar (400 kPa to 550 kPa). Remember to check the pressure on your spare tyre regularly too.

Do tyres need to be run in?We recommend tyres to be run in for 500 km after their mounting. Therefore, avoid strong acceleration, breaking and turning at first. During the running-in, the tyre grease that is used between the tyre and the rim in the mounting dries, which makes the tyre remain tightly in place in relation to the rim. Remember to after-tighten the nuts/bolts after driving ca. 200 km.

Can I drive my winter tyres all year round?We do not recommend the use of winter tyres like the Nokian WR A4 or Nokian WR D4 throughout the year. Modern winter tyres may wear unnecessarily quickly, particularly on coarse spring roads. The wear may also be uneven due to unusual fast wear. Winter tyres should be mounted in autumn when the ground freezes and replaced in the spring when the sun is starting to warm the roads.

How long will the tyres last?The safe service life for tyres is six (6) years. The maximum life is ten (10) years. Over the years, the rubber compound will harden and the tyres will lose grip, even if the tyres do not wear out otherwise. The safe minimum tread depth for summer tyres is 4 mm. Between sea-sons, the tyres must be stored in a cool, dark and dry space. The tyres must not touch solvent substances such as oil, gasoline or lubricants.

Should tyres be rotated from the front to back?Drive tyres wear more quickly than free-rolling tyres. We recommend tyres to be rotated from the front axle to the rear axle ca. every 8,000 km. This way, the tyre wear is evened out and the total driving distance of the tyres is maximised. The rotation direction that is marked on the tyre must be followed.

What if the tyre is damaged?If a tyre is damaged, avoid driving on an under- inflated tyre. Take the tyre to a tyre dealer for as-sessment and repair.

What does the EU tyre label mean?The EU tyre label will help consumers compare tyres in terms of fuel economy, wet grip, and ex ternal rolling noise. The aim is to improve road safety, eco-friendliness, and economic efficiency by promoting the use of fuel-efficient and safe tyres that cause as little noise as possible.
