Additional Information Hankook Winter icept RS3
Enjoy stable handling of your vehicle even on a snowy day with i'Cept technology
Highlights
- Reversed V-shaped grooves are designed opposite to the main grooves, improving traction on snowy roads
- Sipes placed around the edges of the main grooves increase the contact area, providing better traction in winding snowy roads
- 3D zig-zag sipes reduce vibration of the tread blocks, improving the traction and braking performances of the tire
- The high loading silica compound provides an improved wet performance
- Natural ingredients ensure the rubber's flexibility in a wide temperature range
- Large V-shaped grooves allow water to quickly pass through the main grooves, reducing hydroplaning
- The water pipe kerf placed in the shoulder block improves wet performance by ejecting water from the main groove
- With narrower grooves and larger tread blocks, stiffer tires can provide easier handling in dry conditions with higher friction
- By increasing both the lateral and longitudinal strengths of the tire, drivers can experience improved elasticity even at low temperatures
