Max Performance Summer tires are designed for avid drivers who prioritize a combination of aesthetics, excellent handling, and durability with superior traction on both dry and wet surfaces. These tires, which are often chosen as Original Equipment (O.E.) for high-performance vehicles such as sports cars, coupes, and sedans, should not be utilized in extremely cold temperatures, snowy conditions, or icy roads. O.E. Max Performance Summer tires are predominantly bought as direct replacements when the original tires of the vehicle have worn out. However, they can also be suitable for other vehicle applications, provided they are purchased in complete sets of four or axle pairs, if available in the correct size, load range, and speed rating that match the performance category and specifications of the current O.E. tires.
