Tire Otani WK1000 225/55R17 97H (Studless) Snow Winter

Otani WK1000

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Winter weather traction
• Enhanced controllability
• High driving comfort levels

OVERVIEW

The Otani WK1000 is a touring, winter tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.

The tire promotes excellent winter performance. This is achieved with the detailed directional tread design, which was molded using a strong winter compound. Optimized rubber materials keep the tire pliable even in freezing conditions. On the other hand, the sipe and groove pattern generates biting edges that firmly grip ice- and snow-covered road surfaces. Circumferential and angled lateral grooves prevent hydroplaning, as they channel water and slush from below the footprint.

Better road contact enhances the tire's controllability as well. The directional pattern's center tread area closely follows the road, which boosts steering responsiveness and driving stability. The shoulder block pattern and its sipe placement generate the necessary number of biting edges to ensure secure cornering. Additionally, the rest of the tread's details create friction when braking, significantly shortening the overall braking distance as well. These improvements significantly enhance the tire's overall driving safety levels.

The Otani WK1000 promotes high driving comfort levels. The ideal tread design's close surface contact manages to channel airwaves through the footprint, preventing their contact with the tread elements. As a result, the sound waves are not generated. This makes sure the passengers are not disturbed during the tire, which leads to a quiet driving experience.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
