The stronger winter compound and the detailed siping placement along the tread area increase the winter weather, ice and snow traction. The stronger compound keeps the rubber flexibility in freezing temperatures in winter conditions. The high-density siping placement increases the grip on the road surface with extra biting edges, boosting the winter performance. The angled lateral grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from the footprint. The tread area is studded, which further improves the winter weather driving safety levels.
