The aggressive tread pattern's superb road grip is efficient on all terrain surfaces and in dry, wet and winter weather conditions. The tread pattern's high void areas eliminate water, mud and slush from between the tread elements, actively resisting hydroplaning and cleaning out the tread grooves for maintained traction. The shoulder lugs also help improve traction as they eject rocks stuck between the shoulder tread blocks. The constantly clean tread and the excellent road grip offer safety year round.
