Car tires Barum Brillantis 2 are positioned as a budget option for summer asymmetric tires for small city cars. They are distinguished by good indicators of safety, reliability, and comfort. They also provide a high level of wet grip and aquaplaning protection. Designed back in 2001, they feature longitudinal grooves located in the center of the tire for fast and reliable water drainage. Multiple sipes on the sides and center, sipes with longitudinal grooves provide tire strength, reduce tire deformation and increase wear resistance. They provide gentle and fast braking, as well as low noise while driving.
Special elements of the Brillantis 2 tire
Barum Brillantis 2 is considered the most economical tire among its analogs. The original belt layer allows the tire to show excellent road behavior regardless of the pace of movement - braking or acceleration. Test drives gave a "good" rating for this tire version. The special flat shape of the belt layer and strong shoulder protrusions minimize the possibility of uneven tire wear during operation. This increases the life of the tire. The presence of central, lateral sipes provides a high drainage capacity of the tire. Water is drained longitudinally and transversely, which reduces the possibility of aquaplaning.
The Barum Brillantis 2 was the first asymmetric tire to be used for small city cars and was only gaining popularity in the early 2000s. Barum products are distinguished by their high quality, reliability, and durability, while they are available to a wide range of consumers. Tires and tires Barum are produced in Germany on modern equipment. It is thanks to this that they are not inferior in quality, but they gain at price.
The innovative asymmetric tire design Brilliantis 2 raises the bar for tire manufacturers. This surface structure improves vehicle handling, comfortable movement on the road, and also reduces the risk of aquaplaning.
The inner side of the drawing is responsible for the behavior of the vehicle on dry roads. The beveled edges of the outer and central blocks, three longitudinal grooves provide ease of handling on a wet road, they seem to work "in pair". Barum Brillantis 2 tires guarantee short braking distances, tight contact with the surface, even in emergency maneuvering situations.
Performance indicators and advantages of the Barum Brillantis 2 model
Brillantis 2 tires ensure vehicle stability in any driving situation. They are reliable and affordable. They are perfect for city cars, provide a minimum noise level, fast water drainage, good grip, uniform slow wear.
The optimized shape of the spot reduces wear and tear on Barum Brillantis 2 rubber, as well as extends their normal life, in order to save costs for car owners. Brillantis 2 tires are designed for speeds up to 210 km / h, they are suitable for small city cars with a diameter of 13-15 inches.
Barum Brilantis 2 is an excellent budget rubber of a well-known Czech tire factory, which is owned by the well-known Continental company. Tires are typical summer tires for passenger cars. The tires amaze with their high-performance characteristics, which rightfully make the tires the best in their price segment. A wide assortment makes it possible to select products for the majority of car owners of passenger cars.
The tread pattern of the Barum Brillantis 2
The working surface of the tire has an innovative pattern at the time of the model's release. This design significantly improves the rubber's handling characteristics such as braking, traction, and deformation resistance. The asymmetrical pattern consists of an inner and an outer side. The inner shoulder area provides excellent dry running characteristics. The outer side, as it should be, increases the excellent grip of the tire on the wet road.
The optimized tire-road contact area significantly increases stability during various maneuvers. The spot remains maximally enlarged due to the peculiarities of the location of the central ribs and the shoulder region. The two medial ribs are of high strength and impressive size. They provide sensitivity to driver commands and maintain good stability when cruising in a straight line. The two shoulder areas, outer and inner, improve lateral traction and provide overall confident maneuvering behavior.
The aquadrainage system of the Barum Brillantis 2 rubber in this rubber is represented by many transverse grooves and three wide channels. It is they who improve the drainage of water from under the contact patch, thereby improving grip on a wet road, and there is no likelihood of the most dangerous slashing or aquaplaning. Thus, the presented tires have maximum safety.
Rubber compound of the tire Barum Brilantis 2
The rubber composition of the presented model is replete with high-quality chemical elements. It contains synthetic rubber, other elastomers, carbon black, and silicic acid particles for flexibility. As a result, the rubber compound contributes to good resistance to temperature fluctuations and increases wear resistance. In addition, the low rolling resistance leads to lower fuel consumption, which is a big plus for such a budget tire.
Brillantis 2 offers extended service life and high savings. This versatile model combines balanced performance and precise steering response.
