What is protech tire
2 Answers
protech is a sub-brand of Continental, specifically the Nordic Viking tire under Continental. Here is some information about protech: 1. Nordic Viking car tires are introduced by Continental specifically for Chinese road conditions, featuring wear resistance, comfort, quietness, and good handling performance. 2. Nordic Viking tires have been manufactured since 1931, originally a wholly-owned Norwegian company with over 50% market share in Norway. In 1990, Continental AG acquired 49% of Nordic Viking shares, and by 1992, Continental Group fully owned Nordic Viking.
As a seasoned driver, I tried Protech tires last year. It's an economical brand known for durability and affordability. I used them on my SUV for mountain roads and found the grip decent, though noisier compared to Michelin. Tire selection is quite nuanced; Protech might suit daily commutes given its budget-friendly price, saving hundreds over premium brands. In terms of lifespan, I've driven 20,000 km with minimal wear, but the tread design is basic, requiring reduced speed in rain or snow. Safety first—I recommend checking the production date when changing tires to avoid overly aged stock. Ultimately, economical choices involve trade-offs; regular pressure checks are key to extending tire life and saving money.
