The directional tread design features an optimized tread block placement and wide tread grooves to ensure constant road contact in dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The wide grooves prevent hydroplaning as the wide circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by eliminating water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The increased all weather traction and hydroplaning resistance boost the year round driving security.

They work together to upgrade the steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its responsiveness to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting it. The large shoulder tread blocks heighten the number of biting edges that grip the road surface during cornering and maneuvering. The enhanced controllability and maneuvering ability allow the driver to confidently control the tire throughout the year.

The directional tread design's constant road contact manages to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. As a result, the pressure does not concentrate on one area of the tire, but it is spread out equally. The tire is capable of performing to its best capability in this manner, promoting a safer high speed performance.
