Description

The Winguard Sport 2 offers outstanding driving properties on wet and dry road as well as at winterly road conditions.

Excellent handling and driving stability

Improved winter properties

Enhanced wet properties

  • The optimized V-shaped, directional profile reduces aquaplaning
  • Special polymers react at low temperatures and improve the driving behaviour on snow and ice
  • The improved dispersion technology with nano silica particle distribution ensures superb driving characteristics on wet road
  • 3D Sinus plates improve the traction on snow and ice, guarantee block stiffness under dry conditions
  • Wide slant grooves in the shoulder blocks for increased side power transmission during snow and wetness
  • The fine-tuned vulcanization process guarantees excellent stability on snow
  • More profile blocks and thereby more gripping edges for superb properties on snow and ice
  • Balanced profile design for enhanced driving properties

    Braking feels secure

    Good value, though the sidewall is softer than my previous set. Fine for the price. Proper grip on packed snow, no wheelspin drama.

    Good grip in the wet

    Put these on two months ago and the car feels noticeably more planted. The Winguard Sport 2 grips well on dry roads. Good tyre overall. Felt secure on icy morning roads. Took a few hundred km to bed in.

    Recommended

    Solid everyday tyre. Nothing flashy, but it does everything I ask of it. Felt secure on icy morning roads.

    All-round good pick

    Second set of Nexen on this car. The last ones wore well, expecting the same here.
