Nexen Tire has expanded its winter tire lineup with the introduction of the Winguard ice3, a new model specifically designed for icy roads. This tire has earned the Ice Grip certification, which signifies it meets stringent braking performance standards on icy surfaces. The Winguard ice3 is engineered to maintain flexibility and traction in low temperatures, thanks to a specialized rubber compound.
Its wider tread profile also increases contact with the road, enhancing grip during winter conditions. This tire is targeted at drivers who frequently encounter icy roads or travel during hours when temperatures are low, increasing the likelihood of road freezing. Nexen Tire now offers three winter tire options: the Winguard ice3, Winguard Sport 2, and Winguard Sport 2 SUV.
