CYPRESS, CA - Toyo Tire U.S.A. Corp. has introduced the Toyo Extensa HP. This is Toyo Tires' first entry-level, high performance tire for the U.S. market and the second product in the new Extensa line, a line of tires launched earlier this year. Twenty key sizes cover popular performance coupes and sedans, offering value-priced options for original equipment replacement and plus sizing.

The all-season, unidirectional tire incorporates design elements such as Toyo Tires' Silent Wall for quiet operation on the road and T-mode design technology to optimize performance and ride comfort. Additional features include four wide circumferential grooves and full depth sipes for excellent wet traction, interlocking tread blocks to enhance stability and cornering and a three-variable pitch design to minimize tread noise.  The Extensa HP is also designed to compliment a performance vehicle with a stylish sidewall and tread design.

Ten sizes, ranging from 16- to 20-inches in rim diameter, are available now to fit vehicles from manufacturers such as Acura, Audi, Chevrolet, Ford, Mazda, Nissan, Scion, Subaru, and Volkswagen. An additional 10 sizes, including 15 inch, will be released into the fall.
