Tread Design & Hydrodynamics

• Features a V‑shaped directional tread pattern that enhances water and slush evacuation, reducing the risk of hydroplaning.

• Includes wide, slanted lateral grooves and a two-step aqua slant design for superior drainage.

Grip & Stability Enhancements

• Serrated groove edges, “slush edges,” and 3D GripKontrol sipes boost traction on snow, slush, and ice.

• High-density summer sipes and concave tie-bars enhance block stiffness by up to 4%, improving dry-road handling.

Construction & Comfort

• Built with a jointless reinforced belt, a wide steel belt layer, and a polyester carcass for improved handling, wear resistance, and stability.

• Incorporates pitch variation technology to reduce road noise and deliver a smoother, more comfortable ride.

Compound & Weather Adaptability

• Utilises the Weather Control compound, featuring high-silica and natural ingredients to maintain flexibility across varying temperatures.

• Comes marked with M+S (Mud & Snow) and the 3PMSF (Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake) symbol, indicating its ability to perform in severe winter conditions.

Reviews & Performance Highlights

• Praised in multiple European tyre tests for “excellent driving characteristics in all weather conditions,” including dynamic handling, wet and snow braking, and aquaplaning resistance.

• Independent reviewers commend its dependable wet grip, snow traction, ride comfort, tread longevity, and value.

• Some users note minor downsides, such as elevated road noise, softer sidewalls causing understeer, and mild reduction in wet grip as tread wears.
