The patterns have many impressive features and benefits including a series of asymmetric pattern blocks positioned both inside and outside of the tread giving outstanding cornering performance and a high standard of drainage. The wide pattern increases ground pressure when turning, and a central and continuous pattern rib guarantees a high level of stable handling at high speed. Four wide drainage longitudinal grooves efficiently divert water in wet road conditions safeguarding against aquaplaning. The Carmarga is currently available in 41 sizes from 195/55R16 to 285/50R20.
The MatraX Alba is another ultra high performance tyre specifically for summer driving designed to give ultimate driving comfort.
