Farroad FRD866 – 255/55ZRF18 105W RUNFLAT

Description: The Farroad FRD866 in 255/55ZRF18 105W is a high-performance All Season/Summer tyre that incorporates Run-Flat Technology (RFT). This size is specifically designed for luxury SUVs and high-performance crossovers (such as the BMW X5, Mercedes-Benz GLE, and Range Rover Evoque) that require a substantial load index, high-speed capability, and Run-Flat safety features.

Key Features:

• Run-Flat Technology (RFT): The ZRF in the size code confirms its Run-Flat capability. This system uses highly reinforced sidewalls to allow the tyre to support the vehicle’s weight and permit safe driving at a reduced speed (typically up to 50 mph / 80 km/h) for a limited distance after a total loss of air pressure.

• Superior Load Capacity: With a high 105 load index, this reinforced tyre supports up to 925kg per tyre. This strong construction is vital for safely handling the substantial mass and dynamic forces of large luxury SUVs.

• High-Speed Performance: Rated W (up to 168 mph / 270 km/h), this tyre is built with robust components to ensure stable, safe, and precise handling at high motorway speeds. The Z confirms its high-speed engineering.

• SUV Performance Balance: The wide 255mm tread and the 55-series profile offer a good balance between responsive handling and ride comfort, ensuring the large vehicle feels planted without sacrificing a smooth ride.

• Wet Weather Safety: Wide circumferential grooves actively resist hydroplaning by efficiently dispersing water from the wide tyre footprint, promoting safer performance in heavy rain.

• Convenience: Eliminates the urgent and often hazardous need for a roadside tyre change, enhancing driver safety and peace of mind, especially when driving a large family vehicle.
