The first 'low profile' tyre The invention of the TRX by Michelin in 1975 permitted a more even distribution of tension in the whole tyre casing, which is where the name of TR standing for “Tension Repartie” ('distributed tension') comes from. The TRX won renown in Formula 1 racing with Renault and Prost and in the world rally championship on the Audi Quattro, 205 Turbo 16 and R5 Turbo. For the first time, the tyre and its rim complemented one another perfectly, working as a single unit. The rim underwent a fundamental transformation, the essential characteristic of which was a flatter, lower flange. This new design of the rim and tyre bead resulted in a gradual curvature of the casing, without the 'S' shaped flexing inherent in traditional designs. Thanks to this innovative construction, the TRX tyre offers better directional stability and makes a great contribution to the active safety of the vehicle, thanks to its exceptional handling close to the limit, especially when cornering. Remarkable grip thanks to the ideal distribution of pressure in the contact patch. Excellent comfort due to increased useful flexing zone. New look to the tyre/wheel assembly and the heavily sculpted tread pattern.

ZX The “X” evolution Radial technology. The benefits of the radial tyre compared with the standard tyre were visible in all areas: greater safety (enhanced road-holding, more grip, shorter braking distances) economical to use (significantly increase mileage and reduced fuel consumption) increased comfort thanks to sidewall flexibility In the 1950s, the superiority of the X tyre was such that it was fitted by a numbers of racing drivers, althrough Michelin was not officially involved in car racing at this time. 1968 was the year of ZX development, with even more sipes offering better traction and stability in all weather conditions.

Optimize the grip of your modern classic sports cars It offers great driving pleasure. GRIP WHEN CORNERING The VCP (Variable Contact Patch) increases the area of tread in contact with the road as cornering force increases. GRIP FOR SPORTY CARS Designed to provide the grip demanded by sports vehicles, thanks to a rubber compound using the ALM (Adhesion and Longevity Maximised) technology developed from competition use. MAXIMUM WATER EVACUATION Water dispersal is maximised by an asymmetric tread pattern with a variable groove to rubber ratio across the tread.

Get Closer to Nature More Safely on N'blue HD Plus Do you have your own way of releasing stress? Some people go up a mountain and shout while others listen to music or confide in their friends. You may want to go on a drive to ease your stress if you are a Nexen Tire fan. A drive for its own sake when you are down or just feeling gloomy will put you in a much better mood. To better help you with your drive for a change of mood or a release of stress, Nexen Tire has launched a new, exciting product: N’blue HD Plus, an upgraded version of N’blue HD with better performance and improved features that are the product of extensive investment in R&D. Key Performance Utmost Handling Performance Efficient water drainage: Computer simulated four circumferential grooves and slightly curved lateral grooves effectively evacuate water and resist hydroplaning. Outstanding straight driving stability: Continuous 3 center ribs help directional driving stability at a high speed. Maximized Wet Performance Jointless Bead Wire & High Hardness Bead Filler: Improve high speed stability and deliver better handling and steering response. Maximized Wet Grip Compound: By applying the latest silica & advanced materials compounding technology, Maximized wet grip and higher fuel efficiency are secured at same time. Reduced Rolling Resistance High performance cornering: Solid shoulder rib facilitates precise cornering and keeps in tune with every corner by distributing forces. Excellent driving stability in wet roads: Lateral grooves achieved by effective drainage enhance driving stability in wet roads. Optimized Best Contour System (OBCS) High Tensile Steel Belts: Enhance braking function with optimized grip pressure and stress dispersion by OBCS technology. Optimized Carcass Contour System (OCCS) High Modulus Carcass: Minimizes tire deformation and helps maintain the tire's shape to enhance driving stability with OCCS technology. Put differently, based on the EU Labeling standard for easier comparison, the tire has better wet grip, rolling resistance and noise performance. With improved stability on wet roads, the N’blue HD Plus received many ‘A’s in wet braking, the highest level under the EU Labeling standard.Its wet grip, one aspect of a tire highly regarded in Europe, has also been improved, as 18 out of its 44 categories previously rated B received A. In addition, 16 categories in rolling resistance and 15 categories in noise were rated higher, allowing the tire to provide a higher level of silence and better ride. Its fuel efficiency is higher now, with 5 percent more mileage compared to its predecessor. Nexen Tire is committed to delivering higher quality and performance to customers through continued improvement and sustained investment in R&D.
