Americus Recon Sport
OVERVIEW
The Americus Recon Sport is a high performance, all weather tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. Americus offers a 45,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.
High speed controllability and maneuvering are promoted with this model. The asymmetric tread design’s optimized surface contact upgrades steering responsiveness and driving stability. The better road contact maintains surface contact during the drive, which increases the steering response time and accuracy to the driver’s commands. On the other hand, it also improves structural stability throughout the drive. The ideal shoulder block placement provides additional biting edges, which improves the cornering and maneuvering capabilities.
The tire’s high speed capability is optimized for maximum safety. The special heat-resistant compound elements and the better structural stability allow the tire to enhance its high speed capability. The reinforced compound elements prevent heat build-up along the tread area, minimizing the pressure affecting the tire. The structure does not allow the tire to deform under driving pressure. This greatly enhances the high speed driving experience.
High driving comfort levels are ensured with this tire. The stabilized tread block placement along the tread design promotes a comfortable drive. The tread design prevents tread flexing, channeling airwaves throughout the footprint. This prevents their contact with the tread elements, avoiding the formation of sound waves. In other words, the tire guarantees a quiet and enjoyable driving experience as it cannot ruin the passengers’ driving comfort.
The Americus Recon Sport promotes a safe year-round performance. The detailed tread design and the all weather compound optimize the tire’s dry, wet, and light winter traction. The groove pattern helps to prevent hydroplaning during the drive, further upgrading the driving security.
All weather tires receive the three mountain peak and snowflake (3PMS) symbol for their exceptional winter weather performance. They are all season tires with extra winter weather grip, in order to guarantee safer year-round durability. This ensures their true and secure driving ability throughout the year.
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.
