The silica-based compound and the directional tread pattern work together to ensure superb dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The compound maintains its flexibility even in colder temperatures, while the tread elements firmly grip the surface when driving on ice and snow-covered roads. The V-shaped tread grooves improve the hydroplaning resistance by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The exceptional all weather traction and hydroplaning prevention ensure a safer year round performance and driving experience.

This, along with the steel belt construction, secures the tire's structure and prevents deformation under the high speed driving pressure. In this manner, the tire is capable of safely performing even at high speeds as the structure does not deform under the driving pressure affecting the tire. The jointless tread ply and the directional tread design together ensure a stable drive and better steering. In other words, they stabilize the tire's structure against the driving pressure affecting it and increase the steering responsiveness and accuracy to the driver's commands. The shoulder tread blocks succeed in upgrading the maneuvering and cornering capability in all conditions as they increase the number of biting edges that firmly grip the road surface at all times. The result is an easily controllable tire.

The silica compound and directional tread pattern ensure a slower wearing, even pattern. The silica-based compound is wear-resistant and it slows the tread wear rate down significantly, while the directional tread design manages to prevent irregular tread wear formations by equally distributing the forces of acceleration, cornering and braking across the tread area. The result is an extended tread life and tire usability.
