The innovative tread compound and lightweight construction of the tire reduces rolling resistance and allows optimized pressure distribution for higher mileage as well as lower fuel consumption. Its stiffer tread pattern with a noise reduction-block design ensures a quiet as well as comfortable ride, reduces the amount of CO2 and promotes even tread wear for a longer serviceable life. The tire also features an optimized footprint which provides better traction on wet and dry roads. The combination of wide circumferential grooves, large sipes and additional biting edges enhances braking capabilities, in both wet and dry, while the rounder cavity form of treads prevents water from gathering in the front and potentially increasing the risk of hydroplaning.
