Farroad FRD26 – 255/45ZR18 103W XL

Description: The Farroad FRD26 in 255/45ZR18 103W XL is a robust Ultra-High Performance (UHP) tyre designed for large luxury sedans, high-performance executive cars, and premium SUVs (such as the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Audi A8, BMW 7 Series, and Audi Q3). This tyre offers a blend of wide-track grip, heavy-duty load capacity, and highway comfort, making it an excellent all-rounder for powerful, heavy vehicles.

Key Features:

• Superior Load Capacity: With a high 103 load index, this Extra Load (XL) tyre supports up to 875kg per tyre. This reinforced structure is essential for handling the weight of large luxury limousines and SUVs without compromising high-speed stability.

• Maximized Grip: The wide 255mm tread width creates a substantial contact patch, delivering excellent traction for acceleration and lateral grip for confident cornering.

• High-Speed Performance: Rated W (up to 168 mph / 270 km/h), this tyre is engineered to withstand the thermal and mechanical stresses of motorway driving, ensuring a safe and controlled ride at speed.

• Balanced Comfort: The 45-series profile strikes a balance between performance and luxury, offering the handling precision of a low-profile tyre while retaining enough sidewall flex to absorb road imperfections for a smooth ride.

• Wet Weather Safety: Four wide longitudinal grooves efficiently evacuate water from the wide footprint, significantly reducing the risk of aquaplaning and ensuring reliable braking performance in rainy conditions.

• Quiet & Refined: The tread blocks utilize a variable pitch sequence to disrupt noise frequency, minimizing road roar to ensure the cabin remains quiet—a critical requirement for luxury vehicles.
