The self-cleaning nature of the tread design manages to avoid stone retention. As rocks cannot drill into the tread area, they are unable to harm the tire's casing, offering a safer performance. On the other hand, the durable compound and tire structure work together to guard the tire against punctures, cuts and other off-road damage. The compound also helps prevent the tread's chipping, cracking and tears. The overall result is a longer lasting usability.
