- Increased pitch numbers
- Increased groove edge length
- Ice-grip slits
- ‘Z’ grip shoulder block
- 3-Dimensional Sipe
- Spiral boosters
- Grip in step
- Aqua edge grooves
- Zigzag traction
- Dry handling performance
- Footshape
- Ice-philic technology
- Silica distribution
- Lower Tg control
- Bites into the snow improving the traction performance of the tires.
- Maximizes the effect of the sipe edge. Lateral groove edge length: 15% increased. Longitudinal groove edge length: 23% increased.
- Angled sharp-edge slits improve braking grip in ice and snow.
- The 'Z' grip shoulder block disperses pressure equally on the shoulders edges.
- The 3-Dimensional Sipe block provides superior control stability and minimizes block movement in all driving conditions.
- Efficient structure drains snow and water, ensuring maximized ice braking and enhanced acceleration.
- Prevents snow accumulating while braking or accelerating on ice.
- Directional V-shape design prevents hydroplaning by pushing water out effectively.
- Improves snow traction and provides excellent braking and handling performance on ice.
- Reinforced sidewall and bead section improves cornering grip and handling performance.
- Footprint pressure is equally applied compared with conventional tires. This increases the braking and traction performance on icy roads.
- Better grip on icy and snowy roads. Optimized soft compound maximizes contact area.
- Silica particles are evenly distributed to prevent the rubber compound becoming stiff in cold conditions.
- Tg compound improves braking performance and provides better grip in the snow by increasing the contact area.
