The advanced tire compound and the directional tread design boost the dry and wet weather road gripping ability. The wet weather traction is further enhanced with the tread pattern's wide circumferential and swooping grooves that channel water away from the tire's footprint. This also prevents hydroplaning and guarantees a safer summer weather driving experience. The model, however, is not recommended for driving in winter conditions as the tire compound loses its road gripping ability in colder temperatures.
