…durability and performance designed to match the needs of their vehicles. Tire deflection (the tread and sidewall flexing where the tread comes into contact with the road) will remain as originally designed and excessive sidewall flexing and tread squirm will be avoided. Heat buildup will be managed…
…especially when the leading edge of the tread makes initial contact with the road (deflection). Having too much deflection, for example, an underinflated tire, will create more heat during deflection. This can result in premature failure of the tire. It will also negatively impact steering…
…from the driving experience. All driver inputs were met with delayed response and a sluggish feel. When you are missing your marks due to sidewall deflection inconsistencies it can be very unnerving especially at speed. So, in the end the 245 width tire on car #2 was able to turn faster laps than…
…results. Even highly regarded Goodyear Marathons have not proven to be much better than average for durability and strength- they have Hugh sidewall deflection at sharp turns that I believe leed to pre- mature belt separation and tire failure. This is not a result of low tire pressure as I always…
…the tire to keep the tires round. DSS (Dynamic Suspension System) keeps the casing of the tire stable under high forces. g-Control sidewall inserts resist deflection to keep the tire from flexing too much and overheating. According to BFGoodrich, the g-Force COMP-2 A/S boasts a very competitive…
…dry traction and improved stability in cornering. The Direzza ZII features Dunlop’s True Circle Profile that distributes tire deflection forces along the sidewall to provide more control by better communicating tire performance limits to the driver. Its internal structure includes JointLess…
…three-ply body casing and twin ultra-high strength steel belts for durability off-road and on. Externally, Sidewall Protection Lugs and Deflection Ribs help defend the tire body and upper sidewall area from punctures while traversing harsh terrain." * While we normally warn customers who are…
…for straight line racing, this class gives the driver drag strip performance from tires that are streetable. Due to their soft sidewalls, meant to help the tire deflect under straight line acceleration, they can feel softer than normal around corners in street conditions. These tires are delicate…

…far removed from an all-season. Having driven on the previous generation DM-V1 that features a lower speed rating and considerably more sidewall deflection, I do feel that the DM-V2 is a clear step forward. Noise quality is also very reasonable. While by no means as quiet as a class-leading touring…
…water evacuation to improve wet traction and reduce the risk of hydroplaning. The g-Force T/A KDW-2 tires also feature g-Control sidewall inserts to resist deflection and generate more cornering force. It also has a rim protector rib to help protect alloy wheels from curb damage. Get yours today!
…technology uses the race-proven Baja T/A KR2's tougher, split-and-bruise resistant sidewall rubber, thicker extended shoulder rubber and advanced deflection design for a 15-20% improvement in sidewall durability. * Treadlife: A specially formulated tread compound coupled with an advanced…
…that tires receive their speed rating based upon the amount of deflection in the sidewall and surrounding shoulders of the tire. A tire that is more stable at high speed will build up less heat than one with higher levels of deflection, and therefore be labeled with a higher speed rating. It is for…
