The angled lug pattern and the high void ratio enable the footprint to disperse mud, snow and rocks stuck between the tread elements. In other words, the footprint does not allow mud and snow from packing between the tread elements and preventing them from blocking the surface contact. On the other hand, the high void ratio prevents rocks from lodging between the tread element, avoiding stone retention from harming the casing. This combination ensures a secure, damage free performance.
