The symmetric ribbed tread design and the all season compound increase the dry, wet and winter grip on the road surface. The compound keeps the rubber flexibility in versatile temperatures, from the heat of summer to colder winter conditions. The siping placement increases the number of biting edges gripping the road surface during the tire's performance. The tread's circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning. They disperse water and slush from the footprint, further improving the wet weather performance.
