Ice Zero FR tires utilize a specialized winter compound molded into an arrow-shaped, directional tread pattern. The center of the tread features the highest sipe density to maximize longitudinal traction for confident braking and acceleration. Specifically designed sipes across the tire wick away the film of water that develops between the contact patch and icy surfaces, enhancing grip in icy conditions. Interlocking 3D sipes reduce tread squirm for improved clear-road handling and reassuring stability at highway speeds.
