VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN ROLLS OUT OF THE FACTORY ON FALKEN TYRES

In recent years, all-weather tyres have become increasingly important in the market. They combine the features of summer and winter tyres, and offer good grip on dry and wet surfaces as well as on snow or ice. They are therefore perfect for drivers who primarily drive in cities or regions with mild winters. Volkswagen’s Tiguan model, one of the most popular compact SUVs from Wolfsburg, is also targeted at this kind of driver. This is equipped with the all-season Falken EUROALL SEASON AS220 (215/65R17 99V) or the Falken EUROALL SEASON AS220 PRO (235/55R18 100V). In addition, Falken supplies the factory in Lower Saxony with the Falken EUROWINTER HS02 PRO in the dimension 235/55R18 104H XL for the Volkswagen Tiguan as well.

The “PRO” in the name of both tyres stands for passenger car and SUV models which meet the highest dynamic demands. Both models are approved for speeds of up to 270 km/h and are available in a variety of sizes: The Falken EUROWINTER HS02 PRO in 87 sizes with series from 35 to 70 and rim diameters from 16 to 21 inches, the ultra-high-performance Falken EUROALL SEASON AS220 PRO in 45 sizes with series from 35 to 65 and rim diameters from 17 to 21 inches. Both models are based on advanced 4D Nano Design technology, which offers improved wet adhesion, higher fuel efficiency and a longer service life. In addition, the aerodynamic sidewall design with nano-black inscription gives both tires a modern and attractive look.

A difference between the Falken EUROALL SEASON AS220 and the Falken EUROALL SEASON AS220 PRO is that the Falken EUROALL SEASON AS220 has a directional tread and a symmetrical profile. In contrast, the Falken EUROALL SEASON AS220 PRO is designed as UHP (Ultra High Performance), while the normal Falken EUROALL SEASON AS220 is designed as HP (High Performance).
