Additionally, a deep and aggressive sidewall design is adopted to further enhance driving force, supporting optimal off-road performance.
It also delivers outstanding braking and handling performance on snowy roads. The block end design, which grips the road surface tightly, maintains stable traction even on slippery surfaces, and it has obtained the essential European winter tire certification mark '3PMSF (3-Peak Mountain Snowflake)'.
