The winter tire compound keeps its flexibility even in colder temperatures, while the tread pattern, with the high density siping design, boosts the road gripping ability on snow and ice-covered roads. The special road gripping ability is further improved with the model's water and slush dispersing capability. The tread area is pinned for studs. The wide swooping and interconnecting tread grooves actively prevent hydroplaning situations and ensure a safer driving experience in all winter conditions.

The tread design maintains road contact at all times which lowers the rolling resistance. The rolling resistance is the force affecting the tire that determines how much energy the vehicle needs in order to keep the tires in motion. The decreased rolling resistance lessens the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, which makes the tire more fuel efficient and environmentally friendly.

The structurally reinforced center tread design provides a larger road contact area and maintains constant road contact. The better road contact boosts the steering responsiveness and driving stability, which ensure quick and precise handling in all winter weather. The shoulder tread block design also improves the performance as it provides additional biting edges to maneuver on ice and snow-covered road surfaces. The upgraded maneuvering and cornering ensure a safer drive and controllability.

The tread pattern channels the airwaves through the tire footprint without letting them come into contact with the tread elements. This lowers the road noise levels generated while the tires are in motion and guaranteed a comfortable drive.
