GT Radial Maxmiler AllSeason2 launched with A-grade wet braking
Giti Tire has launched the new GT Radial Maxmiler AllSeason2 across Europe. The next generation van tyre achieves A-grade wet braking on the EU tyre label and is supplied in bigger sizes and higher speed ratings to meet the demands of the latest vehicle rollouts. The next generation update on the brand’s original all-season tyre for van and light truck markets, wet braking has been enhanced by more than 15 per cent, while wet handling is improved by 20 per cent over the predecessor.
Giti adds that the GT Radial Maxmiler AllSeason2 also improves on the first generation with upgraded dry braking and handling, while snow braking and handling continue to perform on-par with leading manufacturers’ respective patterns. The manufacturer adds that the original tyre’s long lasting mileage and robustness have also been retained in the new model.
The GT Radial Maxmiler AllSeason2 is initially available in 16 sizes with 15-17” rims, section widths from 195-235 and series sizes from 55-75. Speed indices include R, S, T and H.
Developed to meet surge in demand for all-season van tyres
The new Maxmiler AllSeason2 was developed by Giti Tire’s European Research & Development Centre in Hannover, Germany. The tyre has a new tread compound utilising the latest silica compound to ensure low rolling resistance and fuel consumption, key cost saving elements for commercial operations. Advanced sidewall protection, essential for commercial vehicles which can be kerbed dozens of times a day, has been designed to offer a larger level of protection.
The large quantity of sipes on the tread deliver effective grip and safety on wet roads when braking, while the siped edges contribute towards braking and grip performance in snowy and slippery conditions. The tyre carries the Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) symbol of its sidewall.
Fabio Pecci-Boriani, senior product manager PCR, SUV, Light Truck for Giti Tire (Europe), said: “All season demand in light truck sees an ever-growing surge in demand, so it is imperative we have a tyre which commands both handling performance with commercial operations.
“The GT Radial Maxmiler AllSeason2 delivers all-year round reliability, endurance, long lasting mileage and improved braking performance on wet, snowy and slippery roads for enhanced safety. Size and speed extensions, alongside the most popular sizes, mean we now cover over 90% of our target vehicle market.
“The GT Radial Maxmiler name has, over the last few decades, become synonymous with trust, reliability, safety, durability and mileage, the AllSeason 2 is no exception.”
