The NS317 is a high-performance tire designed specifically for family use. Its core design philosophy revolves around “practicality in harsh road conditions and a quiet and comfortable experience,” making it perfectly suited for various common family car usage scenarios, such as daily urban commuting and driving on slightly complex road surfaces. It is primarily supplied to countries with poor road conditions, high rainfall, and high temperatures, such as the Middle East, Central and South America, and Africa.
Multi-Directional Tread Pattern
Employing an irregular, multi-directional tread block arrangement, it differs from traditional single longitudinal or lateral tread designs. This layout significantly increases the contact points between the tire and the ground, enhancing friction during acceleration and braking on dry roads and improving driving stability. On wet or lightly unpaved surfaces, the tread blocks in different directions can simultaneously engage with the ground, effectively reducing slippage and meeting the grip requirements of both urban commuting and slightly complex road conditions.
Noise Kept to Just 66dB–Comfortable And Low Noise Tyres
Tire noise is one of the most common complaints from passenger car drivers. The NS317 is the better mileage with lower noise，it uses a staggered pitch arrangement — tread block sizes and spacing are precisely calculated so that the vibration frequencies generated by each block contacting the road cancel each other out, significantly reducing the resonant “humming” noise typical of lesser tires. The result: 66dB, an EU noise rating of Grade A, placing it among the best in its class.
Non-Uniform Groove Width — Balancing Drainage and Cornering
The NS317 resolves this through a non-uniform groove design: the two central main grooves measure approximately 8mm wide, acting as the primary drainage channels to rapidly evacuate water at highway speeds in rain, minimizing aquaplaning risk,is the excellent wet brake performance; the two shoulder grooves are narrower at around 6mm, preserving the rigidity of the shoulder tread blocks so that cornering forces are distributed evenly, delivering consistent grip through turns,and provide the shorter brake distance.
UTQG 460AA — Higher UTQG Result
The NS317 carries a UTQG rating of 460AA — a treadwear index of 460, traction grade A, and temperature grade A. HP Tyre provide the higher UTQG result,Compared to key competitors: the Grenlander KINGPRO ONE rates 420AA with a Grade B noise rating; the LANVIGATOR COMFORT II comes in at just 360AA with Grade B noise; the LANDSPIDER EUROTRAXX sits at 420AA with Grade B noise. Across both treadwear and noise performance, the NS317 stands a clear step above.
The Bottom Line
The NS317 is the high density silicone formula tyre, is not a budget volume product. It is a passenger tire that strikes a genuine balance between real-world durability on harsh roads and everyday driving comfort. For export markets defined by poor road conditions, high heat, and heavy rainfall, that balance is precisely where its competitive edge lies.
