The tread design's all season compound and directional tread pattern increase the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The all season compound manages to maintain its flexible traction even in colder temperatures, while the tread elements consistently grip the road surface throughout the year. The tread features zigzag circumferential grooves that disperse water and slush from below the tire's footprint. In this manner, the tire actively resists hydroplaning in wet and winter weather.
