Its asymmetric tread design and high-grip resin compound focus on dry grip optimization, wet weather proficiency, and noise reduction through specialized groove technology.
The tire features a performance-focused silica and polymer compound molded into an asymmetric pattern with stiffened outside shoulders to resist deformation during aggressive cornering.
