Dual Zone Safety concept
The unique Dual Zone Safety concept ensures precise handling and grip. Power Zone offers excellent handling properties on dry roads, while Wet Safety Zone guarantees advanced aquaplaning resistance, safety and peace of mind on wet conditions.
Power Zone. Precise handling. The new durable structure, streamlined tread pattern, sturdy tread blocks and the Slope Groove Design with sloped groove edges make driving on dry asphalt precise and controlled.
Wet Safety Zone Controlled grip on wet roads. The Trapezoidal Flow Grooves divide the centre rib and the rib closest to the inner shoulder. The sweeping, winding design of the groove bottoms allows for effective aquaplaning prevention by storing water and accelerating the removal of water from between the tyre and the road surface. The Swoop Grooves also support agile aquaplaning resistance. The groove ends formed in the inner tread blocks have been spread out and their sides have a horn-like indentation to accelerate the removal of water.
