The start of production of 18-inch tires was preceded by a large-scale modernization of the enterprise in recent years. A special step for the implementation of the 18-inch project was the installation in 2017 of the EXXIUM tire assembly complex from VMI Holland BV (Netherlands) and 52" curing presses from the German company Harburg-Freudenberger, as well as Hofmann (Germany) quality inspection lines; without such equipment, the production of high-quality premium segment tires would have been simply impossible.
The new sizes – 245/40R18 and 235/55R18 – expand the new PREMIORRI Solazo S Plus tire line. The model was created using the latest innovative developments in materials and tire construction. The asymmetric tread pattern corresponds to the modern trend in the tire industry and, combined with an innovative rubber compound, provides an even higher level of comfort, wear resistance, and fuel economy.
The new PREMIORRI Solazo S Plus tires guarantee effective braking, especially on wet roads. Introducing new solutions to ensure maximum safety and high driving comfort, the creators of the new model also took care that the tread design provides good handling. The new product allows drivers to significantly expand the capabilities of their vehicles and feel confident both on straight roads and in corners.
For the new summer season of 2018, the Ukrainian manufacturer has prepared a full line of summer tires with an asymmetric tread pattern, presented in 8 sizes and aimed primarily at the European market:
205 / 50R17 Solazo S Plus 93 V 215 / 55R17 Solazo S Plus 94 V
225 / 55R16 Solazo S Plus 95 V 225 / 50R17 Solazo S Plus 98 V
225 / 45R17 Solazo S Plus 91 V 235 / 45R17 Solazo S Plus 97 V
235 / 55R18 Solazo S Plus 104 V 245 / 40R18 Solazo S Plus 97 V
Thanks to the introduction of this line, Ukrainian tires enter a new market segment, namely the segment of tires for premium cars.
