Square

Treadlife

4% Improved Tyre Life(1)
The tyre is better able to flex and maintain a more even footprint at the same load with a lower pressure leading to better wear(1), while also having 10% more tread rubber by volume (1).
Square

Traction

Superior traction / adhesion from the center groove and tread pattern
A center groove that increases grip and a new innovative tread pattern lead to superior traction.(1)
Square

Robustness

Improved Impact Resistance and Crown Endurance(1)
