The optimised Nordic compound consists of silica, oil and carbon black to provide a higher overall performance level. The silica improves performance on wet surfaces, the added oil makes for better handling in winter conditions, while the carbon black facilitates a superb mileage. All in all, the tyre's new matrix is especially well optimised for Nordic roads.
The new VanContact Ice delivers powerful and safe traction under all wintry conditions. It also enables better handling and braking performance. The new Ramp Ice Reservoir catches loose ice from the street to keep it clear of the stud, thus allowing it to work perfectly under all wintry conditions.
The brand-new stud is made of special hardened steel and is seamlessly incorporated into the tyre's fabric compound to reduce stud loss over the service life. Both the tyre and the stud, wear down uniformly, thus ensuring a striking interaction between the stud and the pattern and a maximum level of performance at all times.
