Description

Greentrac Quest X 225/55 ZR17 97W is a high-performance, all-season tire designed for passenger vehicles, offering a blend of excellent wet grip, low noise, and fuel efficiency. Here’s a detailed description of its features and specifications:  

Key Features:

• Asymmetric Tread Design: Features different patterns on the inner and outer sides to optimize performance in various conditions, with outer longitudinal grooves enhancing wet grip and handling.  
• Excellent Wet Grip (A Rating): The large groove design and a new formula with melt polymerized styrene-butadiene and silicon provide exceptional grip on wet roads.  
• Low Noise: A 5-pitch and multi-steel disc pattern design effectively reduces rolling noise for a quieter and more comfortable ride.  
• Fuel Efficient Performance: The silicon-based compound helps lower rolling resistance, leading to improved fuel economy.  
• All-Season Traction: The asymmetric tread pattern, along with optimized sipes and grooves and a special compound, delivers good traction in dry, wet, and light winter conditions.  
• Enhanced Controllability: Continuous center ribs in the asymmetric pattern maximize road contact, improving steering responsiveness and driving stability.  
• High-Speed Durability: A heat-resistant compound and even pressure distribution enhance durability at high speeds.
• Comfortable Ride: The 5-pitch and multi-steel disc pattern also help reduce road noise and vibrations, increasing driving comfort.  
• Rim Protector: Some sources suggest it includes a rim protector to help prevent wheel damage from curbs.  

Specifications:

• Tire Size: 225/55 ZR17
  • 225: Section width in millimeters.  
  • 55: Aspect ratio (sidewall height as a percentage of section width).  
  • ZR17: Radial construction for high-performance vehicles with a 17-inch wheel diameter. The “Z” indicates a speed rating capability exceeding 240 km/h (149 mph), and “R” denotes radial construction.
• Load Index: 97
  • Indicates the maximum weight each tire can carry, which is 730 kg (1609 lbs). This is a higher load capacity than the 94 load index of the 215/55 ZR17 version.
• Speed Rating: W
  • Denotes the maximum safe operating speed of 270 km/h (168 mph).  
• Type: Summer/All Season (designed for a wide range of conditions but may not be ideal for severe winter).  
• Construction: Radial
• EU Tire Labeling: Typically shows a rating of C for rolling resistance and A for wet grip, with a noise level of B at 70 dB. However, these ratings can have slight variations.  

In Summary:

The Greentrac Quest X 225/55 ZR17 97W is a high-performance all-season tire that prioritizes excellent wet grip (often with an “A” EU rating). It also offers good handling, fuel efficiency, a quiet ride, and a higher load-carrying capacity compared to the 215/55 ZR17 version. The “W” speed rating and “ZR” designation make it suitable for vehicles capable of higher speeds.
