The asymmetric tread design and the all season tire compound increase the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping capability. The compound maintains its traction and flexibility even in colder temperatures, while the tread design's individual tread elements increase the year round grip. The tread's wide circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The improved all weather traction and hydroplaning resistance guarantee a safer driving experience.

In all weather, these ribs keep the tire's road contact to enhance the steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, the steering becomes quicker and more precise, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the tires. The shoulder tread block placement manages to heighten the number of biting edges gripping the road surface during cornering and maneuvering. The better controllability and maneuvering power ensure a secure year round performance.

The tread design's closed outer shoulder pattern lowers the road noise levels created while the tires are in motion. The shoulder design prevents airwaves from entering the tire's footprint and coming into contact with the tread elements. This decreases the road noise generated while he tires are in motion, guaranteeing a comfortable and quiet driving experience.
