…America's various weather conditions, including in light snow.This line originated as the P Zero Nero M+S "Pinna" line that identified Pirelli's use of a tread design that features additional sipes to enhance snow traction compared to P Zero Nero M+S tires. The sidewalls of all existing O.E. ...
…adequate traction, soft tread compound and tread sipes. These sipes open up to provide hundreds of biting surfaces that grip into the ice and packed snow, while the soft compound allows these sipes to open in extreme cold temperatures. This is why an all-season tire with sipes will not perform as…
…Friend Tire Tread Patterns Also called tire tread designs, tire tread patterns are the arrangement of continuous ribs, independent tread blocks, circumferential and lateral grooves, as well as the thin sipes molded into the tread to fine-tune noise, handling, traction and wear. Tire tread patterns…
…but during "active" driving the orange oil is able to heat up more quickly to improve grip when needed. The tread pattern also features variable tread sipes in an effort to increase surface contact while reducing road noise. The dB Super E-spec tires also feature Yokohama´s…
…traction through the tire’s life. It molds an all-season tread compound into a directional design to provide stability on dry roads and wet. Scalloped lateral grooves on the leading edge of each tread block and sipes in each tread block help increase the number of biting edges to enhance light…
…When it comes to tread pattern, a tire with more biting edges, whether it be in the form of numerous separate tread blocks or sipes molded into the larger blocks, will be best in the snow. Smoother, straighter tread patterns will tend to be less effective in the same conditions. Tread depth is the…
…see as the tire approaches 6/32" the tread blocks are noticeably smaller, circumferential grooves are shallower and the sipings for ice traction are much smaller. At 2/32" of remaining tread depth, the tread blocks are almost worn smooth and siping has been lost. With little height left in…
…radials in large sizes. The tire is developed to combine on-road handling with off-road traction. Stepped tread blocks increase self-cleaning for improved mud traction, while the siped tread lugs provide better grip on smooth surfaces. The Mud Country radial's internal structure features twin steel…
…when flat and provide year-round traction, even in light snow.On the outside, the B380 RFT features a symmetric, independent, siped block tread design that uses an all-season tread compound to provide traction on dry, wet and light snow-covered roads.Internally, the B381 features twin steel ...

…Snow tires. It provides good value in a winter tire with longer treadwear than a Studless Ice and Snow tire. Note the aggresive tread pattern with high density siped tread blocks that provide biting edges for great ice and snow traction. Need even more ice traction? You can have these studded before…
…extensive use of siping for the Winter Maxx. Note how nearly the entire face of the tire is covered with tiny serrated-looking lines. Those small cuts in the treads are called sipes. By using interlocking zig-zag sipes, Dunlop is able to pack in a very high density of siping without unduly…

…captioned picture, capillary action will draw the fluid up into the tire sipes if you drive/park in gasoline. While the gas will evaporate from the tread surface relatively quickly, it may remain active longer in the tread sipes. SERVICE WITH A SMILE Need help choosing the right products for your…
