The symmetric ribbed tread design features special cross-linked sipes that work together with the durable compound to enhance the dry, wet, and winter grip. They optimize the rubber flexibility throughout the year, while the sipes firmly grip the road surface as well. Circumferential grooves, the semi-open shoulder design, and multiple biting edges optimize the wet traction. They ensure better surface grip while channeling water and slush from the footprint. This combination effectively resists hydroplaning.

As a result, the tire is able to increase steering responsiveness and driving stability throughout the performance. This allows the tire to enhance the steering response time and accuracy to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure. The shoulder block pattern with the siping detail enhances the cornering ability with the use of extra biting edges. The sipe and groove placement generates friction at the moment of braking, significantly shortening the stopping distance. The combination of these enhancements guarantees the tire's exceptional controllability and maneuvering.

The stronger year-round traction and the special cross-linked sipes ease the driving pressure off the tire, helping to lower the rolling resistance. As a result, the tire is able to minimize the vehicle's needed fuel consumption and CO2 emission levels. This leads to a fuel-conscious and environmentally friendly driving experience.
