The Hankook Winter i cept RS3 (W462) is an example of a passenger winter tyre designed for solid traction in snowy conditions and slush expulsion from the tread. Hankook's Aqua Pine compound incorporates pine resin to allow flexibility at lower temperatures. The directional V-shape tread pattern transports slush through grooves from the centre to the outer edge. 3D GripKontrol Sipes are designed for the blocks to hold their shape while the block bites into the snow.
