Joyroad Sport RX6 – 215/40ZR18 85W

Description: The Joyroad Sport RX6 in 215/40ZR18 85W is a High-Performance (HP) / Ultra-High Performance (UHP) All-Season tyre, designed for compact and mid-sized sports cars, sedans, and performance hatchbacks. This low-profile, wide fitment is often used for vehicles requiring sharp handling and a sporty aesthetic, such as the Volkswagen Golf GTI, Audi A3, or certain Honda Civic trims. It aims to deliver a mix of reliable high-speed handling and all-weather capability.

Key Features and Technical Details:

• High-Speed Performance: Rated W (up to 168 mph / 270 km/h), this rating places the tyre in the High-Performance category, confirming its stability and durability at sustained high speeds. The ZR in the size code also denotes a reinforced construction suitable for high-speed use.

• Load Capacity: The 85 load index supports up to 515 kg (1135 lbs) per tyre. This is the standard load capacity for this size. Some listings may indicate an ‘XL’ (Extra Load) version with a slightly higher load index for added reinforcement, though your request specifies the standard capacity.

• UHP Profile: The wide 215mm tread and extremely low 40-series sidewall on an 18-inch rim are characteristic of a UHP tyre. This profile provides maximum contact patch, leading to sharp, responsive steering and enhanced dry grip.

• Tread Design: The tyre features an asymmetric tread pattern which is optimized for:

  • Handling: The robust, rigid outer shoulder is designed to enhance cornering grip and stability during spirited driving.

  • Wet Grip: The central tread area includes multiple wide circumferential and spiral grooves to efficiently evacuate water and slush from the footprint, minimizing the risk of hydroplaning.

• All-Season Versatility: The tread compound and siping are built to provide reliable traction in a range of conditions, including dry, wet, and mild winter weather (it commonly carries the M+S – Mud and Snow marking).
