The asymmetric tread pattern maintains close road contact in order to upgrade steering responsiveness and driving stability. As a result, the tire offers great steering response time and accuracy to the driver’s commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. Cornering is upgraded with the shoulder's biting edges. The tread pattern utilizes the sipe and groove pattern to create friction when braking, significantly shortening the tire’s overall braking distance.

This tire is a run flat model, which allows its limited performance for 50 miles under the speed limit of 50 mph when air pressure leaves the tire. In other words, the strong internal structure supports the tire if air pressure decreases due to a puncture or some other damage. This allows the vehicle to arrive at a nearby location where the tire can be changed or fixed. Run flat models should not be mixed with regular tires on the same vehicle.

Dry and wet traction is guaranteed with the ideal tread design and the summer compound. This combination increases surface traction with extra biting edges, while the compound prevents heat build-up in warm temperatures. Hydroplaning is also avoided, thanks to the circumferential grooves. They disperse water from the footprint, greatly improving wet grip.

The optimized tread design works with the durable compound in order to ease the pressure off the footprint. This effectively avoids pressure and heat accumulation along the tread area. As a result, the tire can safely perform at its utmost high speed capability, promoting a secure driving experience.

The ideal tread design and its close contact with the driving surface lower road and tread noise levels heard in the vehicle’s cabin. As road disturbances cannot ruin the passenger’s driving enjoyment, the tire delivers a quiet performance.
