Avon ultra-high performance tyre achieves an A grade for wet grip

Avon-ZZ5

Avon Tyres’ flagship ultra-high performance tyre, the acclaimed ZZ5, is now also best-suited to keep you safe on the road in the wet, having achieved an A grade for wet grip across all sizes in the range.

The compound of the ZZ5 has been reformulated and now features a high-dispersion silica tread which provides exceptional wet grip, as well as better braking and rolling resistance, all without affecting wear levels.

Designed and developed firmly with the driving enthusiast in mind, the ZZ5 was tested extensively on the roads and racetracks of Europe.

It also benefits from Avon’s cutting-edge Optinoise technology, ensuring a quieter ride, while the tyre’s innovative mould shape provides crisp, predictable handling.

Avon Tyres UK Sales Director, Jason Clarke, said: “Since the ZZ5 was launched, it has received rave reviews from customers. I’m excited to see us take this flagship UHP product a further step forward, with an A grade for wet grip across its entire fitment size range, providing the optimum in safety at a value for money price.”

The ZZ5 is available in sizes ranging from 17- to 19-inch rims.
