The ribbed tread pattern keeps the road contact in all conditions, while the all weather compound maintains flexibility in changing temperatures. These elements work together to boost the tire's dry, wet, and winter-weather traction. This model is marked with a 3PMSF symbol, which means that this tire can easily handle ice- and snow-covered road surfaces. On the other hand, the optimal grooves actively resist hydroplaning, by dispersing water and slush from the footprint in wet situations.
