As a result, it is capable of handling driving in soft sand, mud or dirt roads with ease. This tread also enables the tire's smoother on-road performing ability. It does not lose its traction, as the tread pattern with the wide grooves disperses mud (which can block the tread from its contact with the road) from between the tread elements. As the tire surface stays clean for a longer period of time, it does not lose its traction and performing capability, making the model's use in such conditions safer.
