Asymmetric tread pattern, striking design, great winter performance.
The two solid circumferential grooves are the first clue that this is a high performance tire at ease at higher speeds. Sipes that look like ice-picks (squint if you don’t see them) line these central grooves to really dig the tire into snow and ice, improving the tire’s handling and traction.
On closer inspection, you will also find the entire tread is covered with high density lateral sipes which squeeze every last inch of traction in snow. As the tread reveals the high standard of performance, the silica based compound used for the KW17 ensures this is a quiet, supple tire that offers the driver a safe, comfortable drive.
