Notable Features

Nokian Wetproof is a passenger summer tire designed to ensure maximum safety on wet pavement and provide extra ride comfort in harsh road conditions. According to the manufacturer, its key features are efficient wet braking and high hydroplaning resistance. A new model of the summer season 2019. Nokian Wetproof The Nokian Wetproof was developed with regard to the specifics of summer weather in Central Europe. Its launch was preceded by four years of development, dozens of prototypes, and all kinds of tests at various European test facilities.

For better performance, the Nokian Wetproof features an asymmetric tread pattern that improves traction and ensures a good balance between dry and wet operational properties, at the same time extending tread life and enhancing resistance to wear. Dual Zone Safety To provide maximum comfort and first-class safety, the tread area of the tire is divided into two functional zones. This new technology, called Dual Zone Safety, offers an excellent combination of dry and wet performance. Responsive Lock Concept The outside part of the asymmetric tread features the Stability Zone. It makes maneuvering easy and confident by offering good stability and dry handling properties. At the same time, the Wet Safety Zone on the inside improves the wet grip and hydroplaning resistance. Coanda Technology The wet handling is further improved by the diagonal interlocking grooves in the longitudinal ribs of the tire (the Responsive Lock technology). At the same time, they maintain the required stiffness of the tread, optimizing the Nokian Wet Proof dry grip. Responsive Lock Technology When moving fluid, such as water, meets a curved surface, it will try to follow that surface. This phenomenon, also known as the Coandă effect, means water can be directed to follow the curve of the surface rather than flowing in a straight line. The Nokian Tyres Coanda Technology accelerates the removal of water by guiding and moving the water flow away from the tire and effectively preventing dangerous hydroplaning. The wide water evacuation grooves of the Nokian Wetproof Also preventing the dangers of rainy weather, the polished main grooves give the tire a stylish appearance and serve an important function, as the water flows easily and efficiently off the slick and polished main grooves. Aqua Hybrid Compound The Aqua Hybrid Compound also offers added safety for rainy weather. This new-generation rubber compound with advanced polymer types and improved silica structure provides excellent wet grip and lower fuel costs. Silent Groove Design technology The walls of the circumferential grooves feature hemispherical indentations, reminiscent of a golf ball’s surface (Silent Groove Design technology). They control the airflow of the tire and prevent the creation of an unpleasant, howling sound at high speeds. In addition, these indentations reduce the air resistance, which cools the tire surface, increasing the Nokian Wetproof resistance to wear.

The special zone on the tire sidewall helps to filter the noise and vibration from the road surface (Silent Sidewall Technology). This reduces the cabin noise.

This is my second set of Nokian tyres and I'm really happy with them again. Wet performance is amazing and my car feels as if it’s on rails. Its job in the dry is also good. I would buy them again.
