Optimized tread design - The updated tread design in combination with the rounder profile, helps to increase the traction of each pattern section on the snow - Increased traction on snowy surfaces
Improved tread pattern compound - New generation of winter compound improves the balance between Hysteresis (wet behavior) and Compound Softness (snow behavior) - Achieved through High Vinyl Poly Butadiene - Excellent Balance between Wet and Snow performance
Interactive Brickwork siping (I.B.S.) - Specific sipe geometry allows "vertical" and independent movements of tread "bricks" - Increased contact area to enhance braking also on irregular surfaces Stability in lateral / longitudinal directions to improve handling
Innovative Base Compound and Bead Geometry - Excellent Dry Stability and Handling - Outstanding safe driving on dry road conditions
