Coupled Silica Tread Compound. The chemically coupled silica and carbon black compound allows for superior wet traction without sacrificing tread wear. An optimized polymer matrix allows the compound to remain pliable at lower temperatures while contributing to lower rolling resistance.
Innovative 5-Rib All-Season Tread Design. The innovative 5-rib tread design incorporates numerous features to provide for excellent stability, traction and treadwear.
M+S Rated
Wide Circumferential Grooves. Four circumferential grooves that include wider outboard grooves resist hydroplaning at higher speeds and contribute to reduced stopping distance.
Open Shoulder Design. The open shoulder design utilizes lateral slots and strategic siping to create biting edges for all-season traction, improved wet cornering performance and excellent handling in snow.
High Density Siping. The high density sipes allow for increased capillary action to remove water from the tread area to reduce stopping distances, improve wear and provide extra grip in rain and snow.
Wide Tread Arc. The wide tread arc improves handling and contributes to excellent tread life.
Optimized Tread Element Size. The tread elements are optimized to promote even wear and all-season traction.
