1. Driving Safety – Four wide longitudinal grooves ensure better draining due to enhanced water volume capacity in the grooves. – Reduced risk of aquaplaning and thus increased driving safety on wet roads.
2. Braking and Handling – Stiff blocks and ribs provide direct steering response, improved transmission of traction and braking forces onto the road. – Fun to drive, responsive handling and excellent braking distances.
3. Wear Performance – Optimised tread pattern in terms of material distribution and stiffness variation between pattern elements secures even pressure distribution in the contact patch. – Even wear shape which results in an enhanced tread life provides increased value for the user.
4. Comfort – Closed outside shoulder reduces noise generated by pattern elements in the centre of the patch. – Increased driving comfort and silence through reduced noise generation from the tyre, decreasing the environment noise pollution.
