Better road contact greatly improves the tire’s steering responsiveness and driving stability. This results in quick and precise steering responses, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. The shoulder blocks generate biting edges to upgrade cornering. On the other hand, the sipe and groove pattern is able to significantly shorten its overall braking distance. These improvements of the directional pattern ensure the driver’s control over the vehicle.

This tread pattern maintains road contact at all times, while the winter compound keeps the rubber pliable in cold temperatures. They work together to upgrade the tire’s performance on ice- and snow-covered surfaces. At the same time, the optimal grooves effectively eliminate water and slush from the footprint and resist hydroplaning. These elements help the tire to safely perform in winter conditions.

The stabilized footprint and the durable compound enable the model to increase the tread life. The tread ensures even pressure circulation along the footprint, avoiding irregular wear formations. Strong compound elements decrease the treadwear rate as well, by using wear-resistant compound materials. The slow and even wear boosts the service life.
