The tread pattern design features a high-density siping detail on the tread blocks, which increases the tire's gripping capability in different weather. These tread elements, along with the all weather compound, keep the tire's firm grip on the road and terrain surface in dry, wet and winter weather. The siping detail heightens the number of biting edges gripping the surface throughout the year, while the compound keeps the tire's flexibility in different conditions. The self-cleaning nature of the tread elements also prevent snow from packing into the grooves and blocking the tire's contact with the road surface. The circumferential grooves and open shoulder detail avoid hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. This ensures the tire's safer year round performance.
