Maximum Safety at High Speeds
Today it is entirely possibly to purchase a road legal set of tyres rated for speeds above 185 miles per hour. Yet the faster a tyre’s rotation speed, the higher the resulting centrifugal acceleration will be. IN order to avoid the possibility of smoky scraps of shredded tread appearing in the rear view mirror, these UHP tyres must be designed to handle such extreme centrifugal forces. This can be accommodated by the use of jointless bandages composed of rubberised nylon or hybrid cords, which can absorb extremely high forces.
