Nitto Tire U.S.A. Inc. has launched the NT421Q all-season, ultra-high performance tire line for the CUV and SUV replacement tire market.
The product is available in 31 sizes -- with three more coming soon.
"The NT421Q is a product created through the fusion of several new
technologies," says Alan Ngo, senior staff engineer. "We have incorporated technologies traditionally found only in specific weather and performance dedicated tires to create a product that truly thrives in all weather conditions."
The tire features two advanced siping technologies, each one providing
specific performance attributes. The innovative siping designs increase both
grip and tread-block rigidity under acceleration, braking and cornering
conditions.
In addition, the latest tread compound incorporating new high-grip polymer, wear-oriented polymer and increased silica "delivers enhanced safety performance as well as longevity."
Nitto is backing the NT421Q's H- and V-rated sizes with a 75,000-mile limited tread wear warranty, and W-rated sizes with a 60,000-mile warranty.
To further assist consumers in getting the most tread life out of their tires, the NT421Q tread pattern is designed with "Intelligent Maintenance Indicators" that provide an early alert for irregular wear and potential issues with the vehicle alignment.
UTQG ratings for the NT421Q are 640 AA for H- and V-rated sizes and 560 AA for W-rated sizes.
