The symmetric ribbed pattern's continuous center rib maintains the surface contact throughout the drive, which boosts the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In other words, the steering is faster and more precise, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure. The shoulder block placement provides additional biting edges, which enhance the cornering and maneuvering capability. On the other hand, the siping placement also improves the braking power. These elements generate friction between the tire and the road surface, which shortens the overall braking distance.
