The silica compound and the ribbed tread design enhance the dry, wet, and winter-weather grip. The stronger silica compound maintains the rubber flexibility in versatile temperatures, enhancing the summer and winter-weather performance. The symmetric tread design, with the siping and notch pattern, boosts the grip on the road surface with extra biting edges. The tread's circumferential grooves and the Aqua-Flume Technology disperse water and slush from the footprint, resulting in excellent hydroplaning resistance.
