Viking Tyres was founded in 1931, and is the largest tyre brand in Norway. The company’s research and development focuses on becoming the original fitted tyres on many vehicles as a means of boosting brand reputation and credibility in the industry. Currently, cars in the Volvo, Opel, Volkswagen and Ford brands are fitted with Viking tyres as standard, and the company is partly owned by Continental for that added seal of approval.

The notable Viking summer tyres

The Viking ProTech HP is a balanced, high-spec tyre suitable for sports vehicles. It has superb handling in both the wet and the dry, thanks to the rigid tread and water displacement properties. It also distributes pressure evenly throughout, which minimises wear and increases MPG. Alternatively, the CityTech II stands as an attractive economy tyre that boasts low rolling resistance for high mileage. Aquaplaning is resisted by the modern tread, and low road noise level assures maximum driving comfort for the user.

Viking’s latest offering, and its current flagship product, is the FourTech all-season tyre. It will help you to further save money as it is the only set of tyres you will need all year, and it performs to a high level in wet and dry conditions. The tyre is strong, helping with solid braking and handling on the water, and aquaplaning behaviour is controlled for short stopping distances. And, unlike most summer tyres, the FourTech has excellent snow traction to ensure even winter extremes don’t compromise performance.

Viking summer tyres are:

• Strong: the robust, durable tyres in the range deliver high performance even in the most demanding condition.
• Sporty: even on high-performance vehicles, Viking delivers outstanding performance.
• Safe: state-of-the-art technologies help to guarantee protection you can rely on.
