Nexen Winguard SnowG 3: Ultimate Winter Performance for Your Passenger Car
Enhanced Traction and Stability
Experience superior winter driving with the Nexen Winguard SnowG 3, designed to provide exceptional performance in snowy and icy conditions. The extended shoulder blocks enhance block rigidity, ensuring your vehicle maintains stability even in challenging weather.
Optimized Snow Grip
The tire features specially designed semi-grooves in the shoulder block and center area to maximize snow grip. This innovative design, combined with 3D sipes in the shoulder blocks and standard sipes in the center, offers improved traction on snow-covered roads, giving you confidence in every turn.
Directional Tread Pattern
The directional tread pattern is engineered to effectively channel water away from the tire, reducing the risk of hydroplaning. The open shoulder design further enhances water evacuation, ensuring a safer drive in wet conditions.
Perfect Fit for Your Passenger Car
With dimensions of 195/55 R16 91H XL 4PR, the Nexen Winguard SnowG 3 is tailored for passenger cars, providing the perfect balance of performance and comfort. Equip your vehicle with these winter tires and enjoy a smooth, secure ride throughout the season.
Delticom description
The recently launched third-generation Korean tyre is successfully taking over from its predecessor, the Winguard Snow G WH2. The developers have retained the directional pattern of the new generation tyres but have invested significant effort into its optimization. The winter tyre, Nexen Winguard Snow G 3, is adapted to European roads and the corresponding weather and climatic conditions.
The structure of the Nexen Winguard Snow G3 tyre combines the most successful technical solutions and the most productive technologies, some of which are highlighted below:
Extended Shoulder Block: The extended shoulder area enhances shoulder strength, stabilizing the response to maneuvering on ice and snow. The 45% wider surface in the shoulder contact zones provides even greater maneuvering stability.
Adjusted Semi-Groove: The semi-groove on the shoulder and center maximizes snow traction.
Multiple Center and Shoulder Sipe Structure: Applying different sipe structures between the center and shoulder areas improves grip performance.
Ideal Lateral Groove Design: The Cycloid Spiral Helix design on the Lateral Groove maximizes water drainage and improves ice and snow performance. Spiraling meltwater and watery muddy snow will now leave the contact areas of the tyre even faster, contributing to good braking and traction performance and a reliable acceleration response.
Durable and Heat-Resistant Rubber Material: Ensures longevity and consistent performance in various conditions.
The Tire Labeling Ordinance specifies the information requirements on fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise from tires. In addition, reference is made to the winter properties of the product.
The EU 1222/2009 regulation that has been in force since November 1st, 2012 has been revised and will be replaced by regulation EU 2020/740 from May 1st, 2021; From this point on, new requirements apply. The rating classes for fuel efficiency, wet grip and exterior noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been adjusted. The manufacturer's product data sheets stored in the EU database can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. Information on snow grip and ice grip is also newly included for tires that meet these criteria.
The following tires are exempt from the regulation: - tires that are designed exclusively for installation on vehicles that were first registered before October 1, 1990 - retreaded tires (until a corresponding extension of EU VO 2020/740 has taken place) - professional off - Road tires - Racing tires - Tires with additional devices to improve traction, eg studded tires - T-type emergency tires - Tires with a permissible speed below 80 km/h - Tires for rims with a nominal diameter ≤ 254 mm or ≥ 635 mm
The criteria and evaluation classes at a glance
fuel efficiency
The fuel consumption depends on the rolling resistance of the tyres, the vehicle itself, the driving conditions and the driving style of the driver. The measured rolling resistance (rolling resistance coefficient) of the tire is divided into classes A (highest efficiency) to E (lowest efficiency).
If a vehicle is completely equipped with class A tires, a consumption reduction of up to 7.5%* is possible compared to class E tyres. In the case of commercial vehicles, it can even be higher. (Source: European Commission Impact Assessment * when measured according to the test methods set out in Regulation (EU) 2020/740)
Please note: Fuel consumption depends to a large extent on your own driving style and can be significantly reduced by driving in an environmentally friendly manner. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve fuel efficiency.
wet grip
Wet grip is divided into classes A (shortest braking distance) - E (longest braking distance).
If a car is equipped with class A tires, compared to class E tires, a braking distance of up to 18 m can be reduced when braking from 80 km/h (on a road surface with average grip).* *Source: wdk Economic Association of the German Rubber Industry eV
Please note: Traffic safety depends to a large extent on your own driving style. The stopping distances must always be observed. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve wet grip.
External rolling noise
The noise emitted by a tire affects the overall volume of the vehicle and affects not only your own driving comfort, but also the noise pollution of the environment. In the EU tire label, the external rolling noise is divided into 3 classes from A (lowest rolling noise) - C (highest rolling noise), measured in decibels (dB) and compared with the European noise emission limit values for external tire rolling noise.
A The pictogram with the classification "A" indicates that the tire's external rolling noise is more than 3 dB below the EU limit value in force until 2016. B The "B" classification means that the tyre's external rolling noise is up to 3 dB below or equal to the EU limit value in force until 2016. C The classification "C" indicates that the specified limit value is exceeded.
