Dual-compound tread layout whose specifications derive directly from the expertise gained in developing Metzeler^s renowned sport touring tires. The two main project goals are supremacy in wet performance and mileage. This combination was the initial step to obtain a new generation of compounds, whose top performance have been reached through Metzelers patented mixing process, capable of obtaining an unmatched level of homogeneity of the components dispersed in the polymeric matrix, contributing to tire durability and wear regularity.
