More Information

The 205/45ZR17 Farroad FRD26 is engineered to provide a smooth, responsive driving experience. This size is a standard fitment for popular hatchbacks like the Mini Cooper, Renault Clio, and Ford Fiesta. Often searched for as 205/45/17 or 2054517, this tyre features a “ZR” rating, which signifies its high-speed construction and enhanced thermal stability.

At Click And Go Tyres, we focus on delivering quality performance at an affordable price. The FRD26 features an asymmetric tread design. This specific pattern ensures a consistent contact patch, providing predictable steering feedback and stability during cornering.

Key Benefits:

• Sharp Steering Response: Rigid shoulder blocks offer the lateral support needed for a sporty driving feel.

• Smooth Ride Quality: The standard load casing provides a more flexible sidewall, which helps absorb road imperfections better than stiffer reinforced tyres.

• Quiet Tread Design: Optimized block sequencing helps minimize road noise for a quieter cabin.

• High-Speed Rating: The W speed rating ensures safety and performance at sustained motorway speeds.

Technical Insight: Load & Speed

This tyre is manufactured to a high-performance 88W standard:

• Load Index (88): This tyre supports up to 560kg per corner. It is perfect for standard weight hatchbacks and saloons that do not require an XL (Extra Load) rating.

• Speed Rating (W): Certified for speeds up to 168mph. This provides a significant safety margin for all UK road conditions.

Performance in the Wet

The Farroad FRD26 is built to handle the wet UK climate. It features four wide circumferential grooves that act as efficient drainage channels. By clearing water away from the contact patch instantly, it reduces the risk of aquaplaning. Whether you are searching for 2054517 or 17 inch performance tyres, the FRD26 provides reliable braking and secure traction in heavy rain.
