Exceptional surface contact is provided with the ribbed footprint. This significantly boosts the tire’s overall steering responsiveness and driving stability. It promotes quick and precise steering responses, while the structure is stabilized. Cornering and maneuvering are also enhanced with the optimal tread elements, resulting in a safer driving experience.

The tread elements and their details ensure the tire closely follows the road, boosting its year-round traction. Additionally, the all season compound keeps the rubber flexible in changing temperatures. Circumferential grooves effectively eliminate water and slush from the footprint, in order to resist hydroplaning, while the siping details upgrade the light winter road grip.

This tread design and its constant contact with the driving surface reduce road and tread noise heard in the vehicle’s cabin. The model channels airwaves throughout the footprint, preventing them from coming into contact with tread elements. This enables the passengers to enjoy a quiet performance by resisting sound wave formations.
