Radar RCX8

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• All weather traction
• High speed controllability
• Longer lasting tread life
• Reduced road noise levels

OVERVIEW

The Radar RCX8 is a performance, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. Radar offers a 45,000 miles treadwear warranty with this tire model.

This tire is covered by Radar Road Hazard warranty. Tires are eligible for an equivalent replacement if the damage caused was within the first 2/32 of tread wear or the first year after the purchase of the tire, whichever comes first. To be eligible, the customer needs to follow the manufacturer's requirements. For more information, please make sure to follow up on the manufacturer's website.

The tire promotes great all weather traction. The detailed tread pattern and the all season tire compound work together to improve the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The asymmetric tread design with the high siping density provides additional biting edges gripping the road surface throughout the year. The all season compound keeps the tire's flexible traction in different temperatures to ensure a safer performance. The circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. This combination ensures a safer performing capability and power.

The model's secure high speed controllability is ensured with the optimal road contact. The asymmetric ribbed pattern's constant road contact boosts the steering responsiveness and the driving stability, while the larger outer shoulder pattern enhances the cornering capability. In this manner, the tire becomes quicker and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized throughout the performance. The shoulder tread block placement improves the cornering and maneuvering ability with additional biting edges gripping the road surface. The high performance compound's resistance to heat build-up and the asymmetric tread's maintained road contact improve the high speed performing capability and power.

The tire offers an extended usability. The balanced tire compound is resistant to accelerated tread wear. It slows the tread wear rate down, lengthening the model's service life. The asymmetric tread's maintained road contact enables the model to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally spread out forces of acceleration, cornering and braking avoids irregular tread wear formations on the tire's surface. This allows the tire to be used for a longer period of time.

The RCX8 promotes a quiet drive. The optimal tread design features a variable pitch sequence. This variable pitch manages to lower the road noise levels heard in the vehicle's cabin. It generates a sound-cancelling frequency that negates the soundwaves at the moment they are created. This prevents them from reaching the vehicle's cabin and ruining the passengers' driving enjoyment. This guarantees a quiet and comfortable driving experience.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
