The non-directional tread design with the high-density zigzag siping placement improves the tire's snow and ice traction. These tread elements provide a higher number of biting edges to grip the road surface, upgrading the performing safety. Cooper's patented Snow-Groove technology further boosts the snow-on-snow drive as the grooves pack snow into the footprint to optimize the traction. The stronger winter compound keeps its rubber flexibility and does not freeze in colder temperatures. The tread area is pinned for studs, which can be added to further upgrade the winter weather traction. The circumferential and lateral grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from the footprint, further upgrading the winter weather driving safety levels.
