Unleashing the Power of Performance and Comfort

Lately released SUV cars are becoming high-quality with advanced technical development. As a result, consumers' needs are changing, particularly when it comes to tire performance. The N’FERA RU1, a premium tire designed by Seung-il Choi, Tae-nyun Kim, and Da-hee Yu, addresses these evolving demands by offering exceptional ride comfort and silence.

The N’FERA RU1 is more than just a tire; it is an arrowhead that embodies its main design concept of stability and speed. This unique pattern shape not only enhances the tire's handling performance but also adds a visually striking element to the overall design.

One of the standout features of the N’FERA RU1 is its bow-shaped sidewall design, which visually represents the tire's performance of providing a stable and comfortable ride. This solid yet flexible image is a testament to the tire's ability to deliver a smooth and enjoyable driving experience.

What sets the N’FERA RU1 apart from other tires in the market is its focus on ride comfort and silence. With the increasing emphasis on these aspects in the latest SUV models, Nexen Tire Corporation has developed the N’FERA RU1 to meet these demands head-on.

The N’FERA RU1 boasts several unique properties that make it the best premium tire for SUVs. Its optimized compound technology ensures excellent grip on both wet and dry surfaces, providing drivers with confidence and safety in any weather condition. The improved block stiffness and balanced construction contribute to exceptional handling and steering stability, making every drive a pleasure.

In addition to performance, the N’FERA RU1 excels in ride comfort and longevity. The special tread compound, flexible sidewall, and optimized asymmetric pattern design work together to deliver a refreshing ride experience and long-lasting mileage. Drivers can enjoy a smooth and comfortable journey, knowing that their tires are built to last.

With a height of 634mm, a width of 220mm, and weighing 9.49kg, the N’FERA RU1 is designed specifically for SUVs. Its tire size of 225/45R 17inch 91W and its classification as a UHP (Ultra High Performance) tire with an asymmetric pattern further highlight its suitability for high-quality SUV models.

The N’FERA RU1 was developed by a team of talented individuals, including Seung-il Choi, Tae-nyun Kim, Hyo-joong Kim, and Da-hee Yu. Their collective expertise and dedication have resulted in a tire that exceeds expectations in terms of performance, comfort, and longevity.
