Saferich FRC26 – 265/45ZR20 108W XL

Description: The Saferich FRC26 in 265/45ZR20 108W is a dedicated Ultra-High Performance (UHP) tyre designed for high-performance luxury SUVs and sport-oriented crossovers. This wide, low-profile size is commonly found on premium vehicles such as the Porsche Macan (rear fitment), Tesla Model X, Mercedes-Benz GLE, BMW X5/X6, and Audi Q7. As a “ZR” rated tyre with an “XL” load rating, it is built to handle extreme speeds and the substantial weight of modern performance SUVs.

Key Features and Technical Details:

• Extra Load (108 XL): The 108 load index supports up to 1000 kg (2205 lbs) per tyre. Being an XL (Extra Load) construction, the internal structure is reinforced to withstand higher inflation pressures, providing the necessary sidewall stiffness to prevent “flexing” under the high center of gravity typical of SUVs.

• Speed Rating (W / ZR): * Rated W (up to 168 mph / 270 km/h), ensuring the tyre remains stable and safe at very high velocities.

  • The ZR designation indicates a carcass specifically engineered for high-performance durability and high-speed heat management.

• UHP Asymmetric Tread Design:

  • Performance Shoulders: Massive, rigid outer shoulder blocks provide exceptional lateral stability, allowing for sharp cornering and high-speed maneuvering.

  • Precision Ribs: The continuous center ribs ensure a direct “steering feel” and excellent straight-line stability on the motorway.

• Wet Weather Control: Despite the performance focus, it features four wide longitudinal grooves that efficiently evacuate water, maintaining a high level of hydroplaning resistance for such a wide (265mm) tyre.

• Aggressive Aesthetics: The 45-series profile provides a “sleepless,” sporty look that complements large 20-inch alloy wheels.

• Rim Protector: Designed with an integrated rim guard to help protect expensive high-inch wheels from curb damage.
