The all season tire compound and the tread design work together to increase the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The maintained road contact ensures constant traction throughout the year. The high void ratio manages to prevent hydroplaning by channeling water and slush from below the tire's footprint, while the staggered tread blocks eliminate snow from the grooves that block the tire from its road contact. The all weather traction and road grip ensures a secure driving experience all year round.
