Engineered to deliver confident traction and handling on icy, snowy, and wet roads, it combines advanced tread technology with a robust internal construction for reliable cold-weather performance.

Winter Traction & Ice Performance:

• Ice slit technology combined with high-density sipes and 3D siping increases biting edges for superior grip on icy and snowy surfaces
• Studdable design — can be pinned with TSMI #12 studs (where permitted) for maximum traction in severe ice, slush, and snow conditions
• 2-in-1 shoulder blocks and claw edges improve traction in wet, icy, and snowy conditions
• Step-down design on the tire's sides provides improved grip and maneuverability in deep snow
• Wide zigzag grooves efficiently evacuate water and slush, reducing the risk of hydroplaning on wet roads

• High-structure carbon black compound — provides improved braking performance and better grip by increasing the contact area
• Jointless full and edge cover reinforced belt — enhances belt endurance and overall durability
• Wide steel belt layer — ensures optimal tread stiffness and improves handling performance
• Equilibrium polyester carcass line — improves uniformity for a smoother, more consistent ride
• Folded belt edge tape — enhances sidewall stiffness and durability
• High-hardness bead filler — improves handling and steering response
• Ultra high-strength bead wire — improves uniformity and durability of the bead position
• Special winter tread compound remains supple at low temperatures for consistent performance in extremely cold conditions
