Description

MasterSteel ProSport 2 (205/55R16 94W XL TH)

Reliable Performance. Budget-Friendly Value.

The ProSport 2 is engineered to handle “larger and heavier” mid-range cars (such as the Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic, and VW Golf). It uses a modern asymmetric tread pattern to provide a mix of wet safety and dry-road stability.

✨ Key Technical Indicators

• 🌀 Asymmetric Tread Construction:

  The tread is split into different zones. The outer shoulder is more rigid to provide grip during cornering, while the inner zone is optimized for water evacuation, giving the driver better control in sudden maneuvers.

• 🌧️ 4-Groove Water Drainage:

  The pattern features four deep longitudinal grooves designed to channel water away rapidly.3 This helps minimize the risk of aquaplaning during heavy tropical rainstorms or wet motorway conditions.

• 🔇 Optimized Block Design:

  MasterSteel has designed the tread blocks to break up air resonance (the source of “road hum”). This makes the ProSport 2 surprisingly quiet for its price bracket, enhancing cabin comfort on long journeys.

• 🛡️ XL (Extra Load) Rating:

  With a load index of 94, this tyre has a reinforced internal structure. This is particularly beneficial for heavier modern cars or those that are frequently loaded with passengers and luggage, as it maintains tyre shape and prevents overheating.

• 🏎️ W-Speed Rating:

  The high speed rating (270 km/h) ensures the tyre remains stable and provides responsive steering even at high highway speeds.
