They maintain constant road contact and it improves model's traction on all road surfaces. The deep grooves and sipes also prevent hydroplaning situations by increasing the tire's water and slush dispersing ability. This further improves the tire's year round driving safety levels. The rugged stepped shoulder design cleans the tire from mud and snow stuck between the tread elements, increasing the mud and snow traction. Select sizes of this model (245 or wider sizes) feature the tire industry's symbol for being able to handle the harshest winter weather conditions, the three mountain peak and snowflake symbol.

The model is capable of handling all soft, loose and uneven surfaces with ease. The aggressive tread pattern ensures that the tire is safe to use and will not lose its traction on tougher, off-road terrains. The self-cleaning nature of the tread enables a clean footprint at all times by dispersing mud and snow stuck between the tread elements that block the tire from its contact with the road. It is, however, capable of performing well both on and off-road. As it offers strong grip off-road and excellent comfort on-road, the tire provides great versatility, which makes it perfect for drivers looking for tires that have flexibility.

This increases the tread life and lowers the road noise heard in the vehicle's cabin. The optimized tread pattern regulates the tread wear by spreading the driving pressure out across the tread area. This even distribution of the forces of accelerating, cornering and braking prevents the tire from developing irregular wear patterns across the tread area, which extends the tread life. The computer optimized tread pattern features a variable pitch sequence that lowers the road and pattern noise generated while the tires are in motion. It creates a sound frequency that cancels out the road and pattern noise the moment they are generated. This offers a quiet and comfortable on-road driving experience.

The large interlocking tread blocks prevent the tread from shifting, which can cause irregular tread wear and traction loss, ensuring that the tire is glued to the road surface at all times. The model's internal structure features a polyester cord body and high tensile twin steel belts reinforced with spirally wrapped nylon. This structure maintains the tire's optimal shape under the driving pressure. As the tire does not deform under the external factors affecting it, it offers better traction, steering responsiveness and performing capability.
