Farroad FRD26 – 275/35ZR19 100W XL

Description: The Farroad FRD26 in 275/35ZR19 100W XL is a wide, Ultra-High Performance (UHP) tyre designed for the rear axles of powerful sports cars, luxury coupes, and executive sedans (such as the BMW 5 Series, BMW M3/M4, Mercedes-Benz CLS, and Jaguar F-Type). Often paired with a narrower front tyre in a staggered setup, this tyre uses its massive contact patch to deliver exceptional traction for acceleration and high-speed stability.

Key Features:

• Maximum Traction: The wide 275mm tread width creates a substantial contact patch with the road, providing the mechanical grip necessary to transmit high power outputs to the tarmac without wheel spin.

• Sporty Handling: The low-profile 35-series sidewall is stiff and responsive, virtually eliminating tyre flex to ensure precise handling and stability during aggressive cornering.

• Extra Load (XL) Capacity: With a 100 load index, this reinforced tyre is capable of supporting up to 800kg per tyre, handling the weight transfer of heavy luxury vehicles under acceleration and braking.

• High-Speed Performance: Rated W (up to 168 mph / 270 km/h), this tyre is engineered to withstand the intense heat and centrifugal forces generated at high speeds, ensuring consistent performance on the motorway or track.

• Wet Weather Safety: Four wide longitudinal grooves efficiently channel water away from the wide footprint, effectively mitigating the risk of aquaplaning—a critical safety feature for wide rear tyres in wet conditions.

• Quiet & Refined: Despite its aggressive size and performance focus, the tread design utilises a variable pitch block sequence to disrupt noise frequency, keeping cabin noise low for a comfortable cruising experience.
