The tread pattern and all season compound work together to improve the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability and power. The compound maintains its flexibility even in colder temperatures, while the tread keeps a firm grip on the road surface. The wide circumferential grooves manage to eliminate water and slush from below the tire's footprint to prevent hydroplaning in deeper water. The combination of the better all weather traction and the exceptional hydroplaning resistance boosts the driving safety significantly.

The solid center rib boosts the steering responsiveness and driving stability. The steering becomes faster and more precise in its responsiveness to the driver's commands, while the tire's structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the tire during the drive. The model's larger shoulder tread blocks keep the tire close to the road surface and increase the number of biting edges. The larger number of biting edges ensure firm grip during cornering and maneuvering situations and guarantee a safer driving experience in all weather.

The center rib's road contact evenly distributes the driving pressure on the tread area, which in turn reduces the rolling resistance. The rolling resistance is the force affecting the tires that determines how much energy the vehicle needs to keep the tires in motion. The lower the rolling resistance is, the less fuel the vehicle consumes. The decreased fuel consumption and CO2 emissions ensure a fuel efficient and environmentally friendly driving experience all year.

The closed shoulders of the tread design prevent the airwaves from entering the tire's footprint and coming into contact with the tread elements. This avoids the road and tread pattern noise from generating while the tires are in motion and ensures a quiet and enjoyable drive.
