This compound enhances the dry, winter and especially the wet weather traction of the tire. The lateral and three circumferential tread grooved in the asymmetrical tread pattern reduce the possibility of hydroplaning by channeling water from below the tire footprint. The tire's snow traction is further improved with the additional biting edges the 3D sub-surface platform of the tire provides for road grip. The tire provides excellent road safety all year.

The tire responds swiftly and accurately to the driver's commands. The better steering responsiveness enables the driver to confidently control the tire on the changing road conditions. The tire's performing capability is also strongly related to its high speed stability. The spiral wrap internal construction maintains the tire's shape under the driving pressure and offers uniformity at high speed performance. The tire is effortlessly controlled thanks to its exceptional steering responsiveness and driving stability.

L. Carbon. On a molecular level, L. L. Carbon creates a chain across the tire's tread, which spreads the driving pressure evenly. The equal distribution of the forces of acceleration, cornering and braking prevents irregular wear on the tire. Also thanks to the L. L. Carbon, the tire is resistant to damages such as cracking, chipping and tearing. The tread life is extended further with the maximized road to tire contact maintained by the center circumferential rib in the tread pattern. The slow and even wear allows the tire to be used for a longer period of time.

These grooves in the tread pattern reduce the road noise heard in the cabin of the vehicle while the tires are in motion. The lowered road noise levels offer a more comfortable driving experience.
