The asymmetric tread design and all season tire compound improve the dry, wet and winter weather gripping ability. The asymmetric tread's elements keep the tire's road contact and firmly grip the road surface at all times, while the compound improves the all weather flexibility throughout the year. The tread features three straight and one wavy circumferential groove that improves the wet and winter weather traction. They avoid hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from the footprint and maintain the tire's constant road contact.

The tread design's optimal road contact improves the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. The wider continuous center rib closely follows the road surface and improves the overall control of the tire. The outer shoulder's wider tread blocks increase the number of biting edges gripping the road surface. The better road grip during cornering improves the maneuvering safety and durability. The asymmetric tread's even pressure distribution avoids heat build-up during the drive and boosts the road contact. This allows the tire to securely perform at its greatest high speed capability.

The tread design features a variable pitch phase shift from the inner to the outer shoulder, which manages to generate a sound-negating frequency. In this manner, the road noise is cancelled with the frequency created while the tries are in motion. They do not reach the vehicle's cabin and do not disturb the passengers' driving enjoyment. This results in a quiet and comfortable driving experience.
