The NT850 was designed using a state-of-the-art virtual computer simulation process that allows Nitto to see how the tire will perform in various environments, while reduced rolling resistance was achieved using an all-new tread compound. Through virtual and real-world testing, Nitto was able to identify key elements to achieve all-season performance. The NT850 was then built using a patent pending automated manufacturing system, which improves uniformity over conventional manufacturing. Utilizing these technologies the NT850 provides a smooth and quiet ride with the benefit of reduced rolling resistance, making it a tire that you can count on. 

Features

• Quiet Serration technology reduces road noise and helps make each drive quiet and comfortable. Much like the acoustics in a musical hall or recording studio, this technology helps break up repetitive tire noises, resulting in a quieter tire.
• The NT850 uses an all-new tread compound that reduces the amount of energy required to move the tire. In addition to its performance and safety features, this state-of-the-art tread compound reduces rolling resistance by 11%. 
• Interlocking tread blocks and a continuous rib help make the tread stiffer for performance in dry conditions.
• Circumferential grooves allow water to escape to help maintain contact with the road in wet weather conditions.
  
• 3D Multiwave sipes cut through the thin film of water on wet road surfaces to improve traction in mild snow and rain.
