For passenger cars, one of the best all-round performers is the URBAN*SPEED tyre; a versatile and reliable option that will tick most boxes for most people. It has finely-tuned handling performance thanks to the rubber compound and intricate tread pattern, which is also optimised for minimal noise output and bump absorption for superior comfort. The design also lends itself to a longer lifespan, and has minimal rolling resistance for greater fuel efficiency.

The alternative is the ULTRA*SPEED racing tyre, which is designed to deliver supreme performance at speeds up to 300 km/h. It is for mid- to high-performance cars, with optimal handling, cornering and braking combined with high mileage for the ultimate experience in a powerful car. Its handling and stability are best on dry roads, making it a great option for the track. The increased mileage you get comes from innovative tread design which also offers a long service life, even with the demands of the track. The tyre also minimises noise output, helping improve the overall driving comfort for a smooth and pleasant ride every time.
