The symmetric tread design and the all season tire compound work together to increase the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The compound maintains the tire's optimal flexibility, even in colder winter weather, while the tread design firmly grips the road surface throughout the year. The tread's circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The enhanced hydroplaning resistance and all weather traction ensures a secure driving experience.
