It allows the tire to closely follow the road surface and optimizes the tread area at the same time. The maintained road contact decreases the shock of driving, and as a result, the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin. The road noise levels are also lowered as the tread design channels the airwaves through the tire's footprint, without letting them come into contact with the tread elements. The reduced road noise and vibrations ensure a comfortable, enjoyable and quiet driving experience.
