Due to these enhancements, the tire received the three mountain peak and snowflake symbol that those tires receive which can handle the harshest winter weather.The special tread pattern also improves the model’s handling. The zigzag center tread block placement enhances the tire’s road contact area, which upgrades the steering responsiveness and driving stability. The maintained road contact ensures a quick and accurate steering response to the driver’s commands and it stabilizes the tire’s structure against the driving pressure.

The larger siped shoulder tread blocks increase the number of biting edges that firmly grip the road surface during cornering and maneuvering to ensure a secure performance. The extra siping detail boosts the tire’s braking ability. It creates friction at the moment of braking and shortens the braking distance significantly.The Winguard Winspike offers a comfortable drive. The special siping detail and the optimized tread block placement enable the tire to closely follow the road surface.
