VANTAGE UHP 245/45R18 All-Season Tire
The VANTAGE UHP 245/45R18 is a high-performance all-season tire built for SUVs and light trucks. It carries a 100 load index and W speed rating for speeds up to 168 mph. The asymmetric tread pattern and silica compound deliver year-round traction on wet and dry roads.
Upgrade from standard touring tires
This tire replaces basic touring models when drivers need sharper steering response and high-speed stability. The continuous surface contact improves controllability during cornering and lane changes. The jump is worth it for SUV owners who want confident handling without sacrificing all-season versatility.
Limits of the W-rated all-season design
The 460 UTQG treadwear rating and 50,000 mile treadlife warranty indicate durable compound life for daily driving. However, the all-season compound cannot match dedicated winter tires for ice and deep snow traction. The 26.7 inch overall diameter fits 18 inch rims only and run-flat capability is not included.
