Durable compound elements and the details of the tread work together to provide the necessary traction in dry, wet, and winter conditions. Stronger rubber materials keep the tire pliable throughout the year, upgrading its summer and winter performance. On the other hand, the sipe pattern helps to upgrade the grip on the road, by generating additional biting edges. Three circumferential grooves disperse water and slush from the footprint, effectively avoiding hydroplaning.
