- V/H-Rated - 60,000 Mile Treadwear Protection (U.S. Only) - T-Rated - 65,000 Mile Treadwear Protection (U.S. Only) - 5-Rib Tread Pattern with Lateral Grooves - The advanced 5-rib tread pattern has 20% more lateral grooves around the circumference of the tire from the past generation tire for increased wet and light snow traction. - Newly Developed Pitch Sequence - A newly developed pitch sequence coupled with the advanced tread pattern layout provides lower in-vehicle noise. - Circumferential Grooves - Four, wide circumferential grooves remove water from the tread footprint and allow the tire to resist hydroplaning. These grooves help maintain rubber to road contact. - Modern Tread Compound and Profile - The modern tread compound and tread profile provide even wear and a long tread life.
