Farroad FRD16 – 195/50R15 82V

Description: The Farroad FRD16 in 195/50R15 is a dynamic performance tyre designed for compact sports cars, hot hatches, and spirited city runabouts (such as the Mazda MX-5, Ford Fiesta, and Renault Clio). With its V speed rating, this tyre is engineered to handle higher speeds and cornering forces than standard passenger tyres, offering a sporty driving feel without the premium price tag.

Key Features:

• High-Speed Performance: Rated V (up to 149 mph / 240 km/h), this tyre offers superior structural integrity and stability during motorway driving and spirited cornering.

• Sporty Handling: The low-profile 50-series sidewalls combined with a continuous solid centre rib provide sharp steering response and excellent straight-line tracking.

• Wet Weather Safety: Four wide circumferential grooves efficiently evacuate water from the tread surface, significantly reducing the risk of aquaplaning and ensuring strong grip in wet conditions.

• Quiet Driving: The tread design incorporates a closed shoulder pattern that effectively blocks noise waves, resulting in a quieter cabin environment—a valuable feature for smaller, sportier cars.

• Fuel Efficiency: Engineered with a silica-infused compound that lowers rolling resistance, this tyre helps improve fuel economy and reduce CO2 emissions while maintaining excellent traction.
