- Silica technology increases durability up to 20% and maintains tread block integrity over the life of the tyre
- The adaptive design provides up to 15% more traction
- Tread blocks resist irregular wear for better traction
- Double ply carcass (2 layers crossed at 90 degrees) provides a better resistance to soil aggression.
