Nexen’s Winguard Sport 2 245/40R18 XL 97V is a high-performance, studless winter tire crafted for passenger cars like coupes, sedans, and CUVs. This tire supports a maximum load of 1,609 lbs and has a maximum inflation pressure of 50 psi, fitting rim widths of 8.0~9.5″ and featuring a tread depth of 10.5/32″. It offers exceptional traction and stability in snowy and icy conditions, making it a reliable choice for winter driving. This tire excels in both winter conditions and long-distance use. Its advanced high-density multi-sipe design improves grip for effective braking on slippery roads while extending tire life. The directional tread pattern enhances traction and cornering in a variety of weather conditions. Wide grooves are strategically placed to efficiently channel water away, reducing the risk of hydroplaning. Notable features include the 3D Winter Kerf for better snow handling and block durability, Zigzag Grooves for improved resistance to aquaplaning and additional grip in snow, and Shoulder Block Grooves for enhanced performance on both snow and wet surfaces. The dual-pitch design contributes to better overall performance in winter conditions, ensuring a secure and stable driving experience.

Advanced Snow and Ice Control: Nexen’s 3D Kerf Technology ensures that the control block of this light truck tire remains in constant contact with the road, enhancing handling on snow & ice. This technology is tailored for extreme winter performance.
Enhanced Stud Pin Performance: The design of this car tire (rim not included) keeps the area around the stud pin free of ice and snow, optimizing grip and control. This results in improved braking capabilities in challenging winter conditions.
Expanded Contact Surface: These automotive tires have a stretched edge, which increases the tire-to-road contact area for better control, acceleration, and braking. It also prevents tread distortion, ensuring consistent road contact.
Innovative Stud Pin Technology: Featuring advanced stud pin technology, the Winguard Winspike 3 offers enhanced traction compared to traditional studs. These auto tires deliver reliable performance and durability in severe winter conditions.
Improved Braking Performance: These snow tires for cars have a larger contact area and deeper tread depth that enhance braking on wet and icy surfaces, improving safety. The tire effectively expels water, mud, and slush to maintain traction.
