Track pedigree highlights Davanti’s ultra high performance credentials
Davanti has a great reputation for quality and longevity – now you can add sport performance to the list.
The manufacturer is the official tyre partner of the AIA Racing School in Portugal’s Algarve region. Budding racers train in either the Porsche 718 Cayman S, Audi TT S-Tronic and Audi R3 S-Tronic – all running on Davanti’s DX640 tyres.
We’re not talking about specialist racing compounds either. The instructors at the Autodromo Algarve circuit trust Davanti’s Ultra High Performance road tyre as a track tyre, highlighting the UK firm’s impressive product development programme.
“The professionals at AIA tested the DX640 rigorously before they agreed to make us their official tyre partner,” said Sean Maddocks, Davanti Sales Director to the UK and Ireland. “Only when they were happy that the tyre could withstand the immense pressures of race cornering, braking and acceleration were they willing to make it their tyre of choice at the racing school.”
Designed in the UK specifically with high performance road cars in mind, the DX640’s special block shapes evolve as the tyre wears. This maintains peak levels of performance even into the later stages of the tyre’s life. It also features a dual-purpose inner block which both aids drainage and increases grip in the corners, helping you keep a tight line wet or dry!
“The DX640 is the result of painstaking research into what really matters in high performance motoring,” said Sean.
“Our team has been able to create an innovative design that is suited to high-speed applications, coupled with Davanti quality and longevity. What we have is a UHP tyre with all the benefits of industry rivals which will run and run.”
Impressively, the DX640 does all this in an understated way. As with all their tyres, Davanti has built noise-reducing elements into the design, ensuring it meets high EU labelling standards and doesn’t intrude on the driving experience.
