While trailer tires do not need to have as good traction as the towing vehicle's tires have, this model still manages to firmly grip the dry, wet and winter weather road surface. The model's symmetric tread design with the zig-zag rib pattern increases the road gripping ability, while the wide circumferential grooves actively resist hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The improved road grip and hydroplaning prevention work together to improve the year round driving safety.
