The asymmetric tread design and the silica-enhanced tire compound work together to upgrade the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The compound's silica molecules ensure traction and flexibility in wet and winter weather, while the tread elements maintain a firm road grip throughout the year. The tread's circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The better traction and hydroplaning resistance guarantee a safer year round driving experience.
