Tyres. The Y10 4WD runs on Pirelli asymmetrical 4x4 tyres. The tread, consumption and struture were specially designed for the Y10 4WD with the aim of optimising road holding in the wet and power in poor grip conditions as well as providing the comfort of normal road tyres.
Characteristics of the '4x4' tyres:
- asymmetric tread design: it is the outer strip of the tread that takes the most stress on bends or at high speed, so the outer blocks of rubber are arranged to give high grip on fast surfaces. The inner strip is designed to give maximum longitudinal traction on slippery surfaces. Water is eliminated efficiently and the tyres are very quiet.
- compostion: designed on the basis of rally experience the compostion has a high friction coefficient for extra traction and efficient braking in poor grip conditions while providing the same tyre life as a normal tyre.
