The maintained road contact and traction boost the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The five circumferential and numerous lateral grooves prevent hydroplaning situations by evacuating water and slush from below the tire footprint. The enhanced water dispersing ability and the year round traction work together to improve the driving safety.

This maintained road contact enhances the tire's steering responsiveness, driving stability and overall handling. The steering becomes quick and precise in its response to the driver's commands, allowing the driver to confidently control the vehicle in all weather conditions. The tire is also stabilized against the driving pressure, which increases the driving safety. The combination of the enhanced steering and stability provide effortless handling all year.

The maintained road contact and the special tread pattern boosts the cornering ability and power and shortens the braking distance. The shoulder tread blocks promote additional biting edges that firmly grip the road during cornering and maneuvering. The flat tire footprint creates heat at the moment of braking, which ensures a faster stopping capability. The safer cornering and shorter braking guarantee a secure driving experience.

The tread design prevents irregular wear patterns from forming across the tread area by evenly distributing the driving pressure across the tread area. The longer lasting even tread increases the tire's usability and makes it more cost efficient.

The maintained road contact makes the tire closely follow the road surface, lowering the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin. The tread pattern decreases the road noise generated while the tires are in motion by channeling the soundwaves through the tire footprint without letting them come into contact with the tread elements, which ensures a quiet and enjoyable drive.
