4x4 Diamaris

Michelin 4x4 Diamaris is a high performance 4x4/SUV tyre designed to allow owners of high performance luxury 4x4s and SUVs to enjoy the road going ability of their vehicles while experiencing the same levels of handling, comfort and grip as top range touring sedans.

Grip under pressure (asymmetric tread pattern)
During high speed cornering the vehicle weight is transferred to the outer edge of the tyre. The large shoulder blocks as a part of the asymmetric tread pattern of 4x4 Diamaris, support the added weight and maximise the amount of rubber in contact with the ground, giving maximum grip and confidence when it is needed most.

Traction and braking confidence (wet weather compound)
4x4 Diamaris has a tread compound designed to maximise the ability of the tyre to mesh with the road surface giving outstanding traction and braking even on wet roads.

Comfort and silence
Michelin tread pattern technology means the tread blocks of the 4x4 Diamaris contact the road surface progressively reducing the noise level created by conventional tyres. This as well as a thick layer of rubber underneath the tread pattern filters noise and vibrations producing, a smooth quite ride.

Feel the road
The continuous and unbroken centre rib of the 4x4 Diamaris never leaves the road, even under the most strenuous manoeuvres. This combined with the advanced Michelin BAZ™ technology provides a direct and constant link to the driver, accurately transmitting steering input and road feedback.

Handling and stability
A high-tech network of internal wirings makes sure that even under the extreme pressure of high speed cornering and braking, stress and load is evenly distributed throughout the tyre, delivering predictable handling, improved traction, longer life and better safety.
