Features & Benefits

  • Enhanced Traction: Reversed V-shaped semi-grooves are crafted to improve traction on snowy roads. Additionally, sipes placed around the edges of the main grooves increase contact area for better grip.
  • Improved Braking: 3D zig-zag sipes reduce tread block vibration, leading to better traction and improved braking performance on snowy and icy surfaces.
  • Wet Road Performance: The high-loading silica compound, Aqua Pine, ensures excellent performance on wet roads across a wide temperature range.
  • Hydroplaning Resistance: Large V-shaped grooves and water pipe kerf technologies effectively channel water away, reducing the risk of hydroplaning.
  • Dry Handling: Narrower grooves and larger tread blocks make for a stiffer tire, providing easier vehicle handling in dry conditions with higher friction.
