Thats a funny looking tire!


Winter tires usually feature a unidirectional tread design. The unidirectional , v-groove tires move slush and water out of the way better than any other tread design. The more open the tread design, the better the tire will work in deep snow. The larger the tread blocks, the better the directional stability. The more sipes (small slits in the tread block), the better the tire will work on wet pavement and on ice.
In short winter tires do not look like all season tires because they do not work like all season tires.
