The tread's continuous center rib maintains the tire's surface contact throughout the drive, boosting steering responsiveness and driving stability. The steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. The optimal tread elements also help shorten the braking distance. They create friction between the tire and the road at the moment of braking, which greatly upgrades the braking power. As a result, the tire ensures the driver's constant control over the vehicle.

The tread area is pinned for studs, and it also features a high-density siping pattern. This pattern was molded using a stronger winter compound blend, in order to increase its winter grip. Durable rubber materials keep the tire pliable in freezing conditions. On the other hand, the tread greatly upgrades its grip with extra biting edges. Hydroplaning is promoted with the grooves, which channel water and slush from the footprint.

This tread design and its constant contact with the driving surface reduce road and tread noise heard in the vehicle's cabin. The tread elements channel airwaves throughout the footprint, preventing them from coming into contact with tread elements. This enables the passengers to enjoy a quiet performance by resisting sound wave formations.
