The directional symmetric tread design and the special all season tire compound work together to increase the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The compound maintains its flexibility even in colder temperatures, while the tread firmly grips the road surface throughout the year. The wide circumferential and smaller, angled lateral grooves enhance the water and slush dispersing capability to improve the model's hydroplaning resistance. The upgraded all weather traction and hydroplaning resistance ensure a safer driving year round driving experience.
