While the tire does not function as well as a true winter tire, it is still able to withstand and perform in less severe winter conditions. The tire’s wide tread grooves help disperse water from beneath the tire’s footprint and increases its hydroplaning resistance.

Thanks to the special rugged tread design, the tire is resistant to accidental cuts and tears which can occur while driving in different road conditions. This rugged tread design also increases the tire’s traction in mud and snow, improving the tire’s performance capabilities. The tire’s self-cleaning tread helps eject stones stuck between the tread and cleans out mud and snow for enhanced traction.

The even wear of the tire elongates its tread life, providing a longer lasting tread life. The larger footprint also lowers the rolling resistance. The lowered rolling resistance reduces the vehicles fuel consumption, making the tire more economical.
