The aggressive, staggered block placement and the high void ratio greatly upgrade the soft, loose, and uneven terrain traction. These tread elements with the siping placement greatly improve the various terrain performance, optimizing the constant forward motion. This increases the deep mud and loose dirt traction, while also keeping the footprint clean at all times. The self-cleaning nature of the tread eliminates mud and snow from between the tread elements, while stone retention is effectively avoided.
