The tread pattern and all season tire compound work together to increase the dry, wet and winter weather road grip. The tread's continuous tread block placement and optimal siping detail improve the grip it has on the road surface, while the compound keeps its flexibility throughout the year, even in colder temperatures. The circumferential and angled lateral grooves help resist hydroplaning. They disperse water and slush from below the tire's footprint and provide a safer year round performance.
