Passenger TyresWinterEuro*Frost 3Technical details


EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE ON SNOW AND ICE


The circumferential, zigzag grooves optimise the winter traction by retaining the snow in the grooves and creating excellent interaction between the snow and the road (snow-snow cohesion).

The numerous wave-shaped and zigzag sipes combined with the optimised tread pattern provide very positive grip when cornering and braking on snow or ice.


SAFTEY ON WET


The deep circumferential tread grooves pick up water quickly and disperse it via the lateral grooves between the tread lugs.

Not only water is rapidly moved out of the tyre tread, but also slush, decreasing the risk of hampering grip. The downwards tapered tread grooves further accelerate water and slush dispersion


DRIVING STABILITY ON DRY


The rugged shoulder lugs ensure short braking distances and good cornering performance on dry roads, delivering optimum lateral guidance, even when driving at the limit.

The sipes – which are of different depths – ensure treads lug stiffness during braking, enabling the tyre to achieve short braking distances.
