Farroad FRD96 – 215/65R16C 109/107T 8PLY

Farroad FRD96 in 215/65R16C is a highly popular commercial tyre designed for modern medium-to-large vans (such as the Ford Transit Custom, VW Transporter T5/T6, and Vauxhall Vivaro). Featuring a robust 8-Ply Rating and a high load capacity, this tyre is engineered to deliver the strength and durability required for heavy daily use, while maintaining the comfort and handling characteristics expected by modern van drivers.

Key Features:

• High Load Capacity: With a substantial load index of 109/107, this tyre is capable of supporting up to 1,030kg per tyre (single fitment), providing ample safety margin for fully loaded work vans and campers.

• Reinforced 8-Ply Construction: The heavy-duty internal structure strengthens the sidewalls against impact, curbing, and potholes, ensuring long-lasting durability in tough working environments.

• Wet Weather Safety: Three wide zig-zag longitudinal grooves efficiently evacuate water from the contact patch, significantly reducing the risk of aquaplaning and ensuring strong grip in wet conditions.

• Stable Highway Performance: Rated T (up to 118 mph / 190 km/h), this tyre offers excellent stability at motorway speeds, with a stiff shoulder design that reduces sway and improves steering response.

• Extended Tread Life: Engineered with a wear-resistant compound, the FRD96 is designed to resist the scrubbing forces of city driving and heavy loads, providing excellent mileage and value.

• Comfortable Ride: Despite its commercial strength, the tread design is optimised to reduce road noise, providing a quieter and more comfortable cabin environment for long work days.
