The stronger year round compound and the ribbed tread design work together to increase the dry, wet, and winter weather grip on the road surface. The sipe and notch placement across the tread area improve the number of biting edges gripping the road surface, optimizing the forward motion. Using durable rubber elements enabled the tire to be pliable in various temperatures, boosting the summer and winter performance. Circumferential grooves disperse water and slush from the footprint, effectively combating hydroplaning in wet conditions.
