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

Enhanced winter properties

Enhanced wet properties

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

    Impressed so far

    Bought on price, staying for the quality. The Winguard Sport 2 punches above its weight. Ordered online, fitted locally. Proper grip on packed snow, no wheelspin drama.

    Trusted Nexen quality

    Not the grippiest in hard cornering, but for normal driving they're more than adequate. Reliable winter rubber. Proper grip on packed snow, no wheelspin drama.
