The Toyo Observe GSi-6 HP is a designed for the toughest winter conditions featuring Microbit studless technology. The high performance rated sizes are ideal for passenger cars, sport coupes and some sport SUVs. Significant performance improvements over its predecessor have been achieved using the latest technology. The result is a tire that performs better in snow and ice, with a significant improvement on cold wet roads.
Directional Tread Pattern
A directional tread design with staggered tread blocks maximizes traction and handling while improving ride comfort by reducing road noise.
Serrated Stability Rib
A continuous centre rib adds stability during highway driving or when changing lanes.
A unique serrated design digs into deep snow and slush for better cold weather traction.
Split Offset Shoulder Blocks
Large outer blocks on the outside shoulder add stability to the tire as well as grabbing power in deep snow.
High Density 3D Sipes
Toyo’s Multi Wave 3D siping provides for more edge effect while ensuring the blocks remain firmer while braking, cornering or accelerating. This improves performance and reduces the risk of irregular wear.
Plow Edge
A sharp angled leading edge adds edge grip on snow and ice and helps move slush away from the center of the tire.
Micobit Technology
Crushed walnut shells embedded in the tire tread compound dig and bite into the ice surface for improved traction.
Large Inner Blocks With Sae Toothed Edges
Larger inner blocks are tied together to add stability at highway speeds.
While the saw-tooth edges around the block add biting grip in deep snow and slush covered roads.
Tapered Evacuation Grooves
Tapered evacuation grooves quickly move the water or slush away from the center of the tire to reduce the risk of hydroplaning or getting caught in slushy rutted roads.
