The Tech
M550 A/S is the Ultra High Performance All-Season tire member of
AVON Tyres' family of Tech performance tires. The attractively
priced Tech M550 A/S is designed to provide flexibility for the
drivers of sports cars, sports coupes & performance sedans by
providing year-round traction, predictable handling & control in
dry & wet road conditions, as well as in light snow.
On the outside, the Tech M550 A/S
radials feature a silica-enhanced all-season tread compound molded
into a directional tread design that features large independent
tread blocks to provide stability on dry roads while its grooves
help pump water & slush through the tire's footprint to increase
hydroplaning resistance & foul weather traction. Lateral grooves
& multiple sipes in each tread block increase the number of biting
edges to enhance wet road & light snow traction.
On the inside, the Tech M550 A/S
features twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wrapped nylon,
along with a carcass that sandwiches a hard sidewall filler between
polyester cord plies to help resist distortion at high speeds &
while cornering.
The Tech M550 A/S radials' sidewall
styling features subtle black letters reversed out of a stylized
serrated b& & include a protective "rim recess" on all sizes. It
will be available in W-speed rated sizes in 55-, 50-, 45-, &
40-series sizes in 16" through 18" rim diameters.
