'D-Squared' Sipe Technology. Further enhances winter performance while maintaining excellent wet traction. The sipes are deep to provide performance benefits throughout the life of the tire.
Patented 'Snow-Groove' Design Technology. Provides biting edges for excellent snow and ice traction without reducing element stiffness. Enhances the retention of snow in the outer circumferential grooves to capitalize on the higher traction characteristics of snow on snow versus snow on rubber.
Sawtooth Center Circumferential Rib & Blocky Tread. Enhanced stability and even treadwear in all types of weather conditions.
M+S Rated
Computer-Optimized Random Pitch Sequence. The tread pitch sequence has been computer-optimized to reduce tread related tire noise for increased riding comfort.
Sawtooth Center Circumferential Rib And Blocky Tread Elements. Enhanced stability and even treadwear in all types of weather conditions.
HIGH TRACTION TREAD DESIGN
PATENTED 'SNOW GROOVE' DESIGN TECHNOLOGY
ENHANCED STUDDED PERFORMANCE
TRI-POLYMER BLEND TREAD COMPOUND
'D SQUARED' SIPE TECHNOLOGY (DENSITY x DEPTH)
The intricate tread pattern balances winter traction and a smooth, quiet ride. The deep lateral and notched circumferential grooves provide excellent evacuation of water and slush from the tread contact patch.
Provides biting edges for excellent snow and ice traction without reducing element stiffness. The snow groove enhances the retention of snow in the outer circumferential grooves to capitalize on the higher traction characteristics of 'snow on snow' versus 'snow on rubber'.
The stud pin hole design improves stud retention and the number has been increased allowing for the use of a greater number of studs for better traction on ice. The stud size is conveniently molded into the sidewall for easy reference.
COMPUTER-OPTIMIZED RANDOM PITCH SEQUENCE
M+S Rated
Specially formulated for excellent winter traction while maintaining wet and dry performance and treadwear.
Incorporates a dense zig-zag pattern that further enhances winter performance while maintaining excellent wet traction. Variable sipe depth maintains element stability while optimizing winter performance.
The tread pitch sequence has been computer-optimized to reduce tread related tire noise for increased riding comfort.
