The asymmetric tread features a dual zone design. The tire's outer area increases the dry weather performance, while the inner area boosts the wet and light winter weather road gripping ability. The dry zone's tread blocks firmly grip the road surface, while the wet zone sport circumferential grooves that prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water from beneath the tire's footprint. The better hydroplaning resistance and excellent all weather road gripping ability ensure a safer year round driving experience.
