The symmetric ribbed tread pattern keeps the tire's optimal road contact at all times. This increases the number of biting edges gripping the road surface throughout the year. The compound also helps increase the all weather grip by providing excellent rubber flexibility even in colder temperatures. The circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The improved road contact and road gripping ability upgrade the year round driving safety.

The better road contact enhances the tire's steering responsiveness and the driving stability. The steering becomes quicker and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting it. The solid shoulder ribs upgrade the cornering capability. Their constant road contact improves number of the biting edges that grip the road to enhance the cornering and maneuvering capability and power. The better controllability ensures a secure driving experience.

The optimal road contact of the ribbed pattern enables the tire to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally spread out force of acceleration, cornering and braking avoids the formation of uneven tread wear rate. The longer lasting even tread wear elongates the tread life and usability to enhances the tire's tread and service life. The lengthened usability makes the tire more cost efficient in the long run.
