Special Features

VAI

Visual Alignment Indicator (VAI®)

A warning system of small sipes of varying depths

equally positioned around the tyre on both shoulders

that indicate uneven wear due to improper alignment.

This ensures a long tyre life!

Customized off-shoulder design

point S icon to indicate position of the VAI®.

22 | 32

Special Features

Summer TWI

Summer TWI (3 mm)

Additional safety feature in the tread design. The summer TWI informs the driver when the remaining tyre

tread is 3 mm. We recommend replacing tyres when there is just 3 mm of tread depth remaining, in order to

provide continued safety in wet conditions, in particular against aquaplaning. The summer TWI is an additional

feature to the legal TWI (1,6 mm).

EU Label

Information Noise

What is measured and how?

The external noise of the car is measured according to EU guidelines (engine

turned off, speed, road surface).

But…

please keep in mind: the external noise does not always correlate with the

noise inside the car.

Also: the subjective perception (kind of Noise) may differ from the measured

value (objective noise).

The new Summerstar 3 and the Summerstar Sport 3

improved mainly in subjective perception and noise

inside the car!
