The ideal tread design and the all season compound increase the tire's traction in dry, wet, and winter-weather conditions. In other words, the ideal tread pattern generates biting edges to increase road grip, while the silica compound keeps the rubber flexible in changing temperatures. At the same time, circumferential grooves effectively eliminate water and slush from the footprint. They resist hydroplaning and ensure the tire's safe performance, even on wet roads.

The symmetric tread design's road contact enhances the tire's steering responsiveness and driving stability. This enables the driver's secure control over the vehicle and the tire's exceptional handling. The shoulder block placement upgrades the tire's cornering power, as additional biting edges are provided. The special siping details shorten the braking distance by creating friction. The friction generated ensures the tire's strong stopping ability.

These great comfort levels are ensured with the tread design. The closed shoulder pattern prevents airwaves from entering the footprint. In this manner, they do not come into contact with the tread elements during the drive. This promotes a quiet performance, as road disturbances do not ruin the passengers' driving enjoyment.
