Giti Sport S2

Tyre Details

The GitiSport S2 is a tyre engineered to offer a balance of performance, safety, and comfort for drivers of sportier and premium road cars. Using Giti’s AdvanZtech R&D platform, the tyre features an all-new tread compound that enhances grip, especially in wet conditions, and delivers shorter braking distances. It’s designed with multiple wide longitudinal grooves (four in many sizes, five in wider sections) for improved water evacuation, which improves resistance to aquaplaning. The tyre also has micro-sipes in the contact area to boost grip via a “suction effect,” and incorporates a reinforced centre section for stability at higher speeds and improved dry braking control. The tread pattern and block geometry are optimised to reduce noise and improve ride comfort, while balancing steering precision via stiff shoulders. In tests, the S2 shows improvements over the previous generation: approximately 5% better wet & dry braking and handling, 14% improved resistance to aquaplaning, and some reports of ~10% more mileage depending on usage.

Key Features

• Improved wet & dry braking and handling: thanks to the new tread compound & reinforced centre section. Shorter stopping distances.

• Superior aquaplaning resistance: wide longitudinal grooves (plus an extra outer groove in some sizes) help channel water away quickly. Performance is about 14% better vs the previous generation.

• Noise & ride comfort: the tread block geometry, pitch sequencing and optimised pattern reduce road noise. The design also aids in smoothing ride.

• High-speed stability & steering precision: stiff shoulders help with precise steering response, reinforced centre section adds stability, especially at higher speed.
