The Sport IX T - 1 is an Ultra High per formance tire for enthusiastic drivers. I t provides incredible road holding in al conditions, especially in wet, thanks to the special performance compound and tread pattern. In addition, the V-shaped grooves in the tread pump water away and allow the rubber to grip on the road. Other features such as the newly designed and patented flange protector protects alloy rims from accidental curb damage. The central rib of the tread pattern provides directional stability and rapid steering response.
Also, the shoulder blocks are designed for maximum lateral stability and sweeping elements promote excellent wet and dry handling characteristics. These blocks are bounded by circumferential groves which allows the tire to give you a better grip while being quieter and longer lasting as well. Whilst practical, these design elements also make the tire looks spectacular on every car. The Sport IXT-1 is available in sizes from 14 to 20-inch ( V ,W and Y speed ratings).

The European Union has introduced the EU Tyre Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tyres, light commercial vehicle tyres and heavy commercial vehicle tyres produced after 01.07.2012.
Three different areas are tested: rolling resistance, wet grip and the rolling noise the tyre makes on the road.
The following are not affected by the EU Tyre Label: retreaded tyres, professional off-road tyres, racing tyres, tyres with additional devices to improve traction such as spiked tyres, T-type emergency tyres, special tyres for fitting to vehicles first registered before 1 October 1990, tyres with a maximum authorised speed of 80 km/h, tyres for rims with a nominal diameter of 254 mm or less or 635 mm or more.
With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decision-making aid.
Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tyre Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tyre labelling, tyres have much more important and safety-relevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.
Tyre manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safety-relevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tyre labelling, which are always important for the final customer.
