- CO-CS - A Comprehensive Tire Design Method. This method improves handling in wet or dry conditions and reduces irregular treadwear by combining the ideal tread design, casing shape, materials, and construction. - O Bead - Rounded is Better - Rounder overall tire shape provides better balance for wet or dry handling - L.L. Carbon - Longer is Stronger - L.L. Carbon utilizes a special form of molecular re-engineered carbon black, a key factor in improving tire wear while enhancing wet performance. - As a reinforcing agent, silica improves both flexibility and grip - Rim Guard - The raised rubber ridge acts like a bumper to protec wheels from curb damage - Asymmetric Tread Pattern design contributes to both wet and dry performance as well as enhancing other tire characteristics such as resistance to hydroplaning - 5 Noise Reduction - Arranges tread block elements to produce noise-canceling sound waves, significantly reducing the noise of the tire moving on the road surface
