The Winter i*cept iZ3 (RW10) tire is engineered to deliver outstanding grip in extreme winter conditions. Featuring cutting-edge technologies developed by Hankook, this tire combines safety, performance, and durability, even on icy or snow-covered roads. It’s the ideal choice for drivers who demand confidence and control throughout the winter season.

• Enhanced ice grip thanks to Ice-grip slits and the advanced New i*cept compound
• Improved winter handling with wide shoulder blocks and 3D Winter Sipe technology
• Efficient water evacuation and lower rolling resistance through the V-shaped tread and Optimized Curing process

Superior grip on icy roads
The Winter i*cept iZ3 (RW10) incorporates specially designed features to tackle icy surfaces with confidence. The angled Ice-grip slits with sharp edges significantly enhance traction on frozen roads. This is further supported by the innovative New i*cept compound, which uses a highly refined resin and flexible polymer chain to maintain elasticity in cold weather and deliver exceptional grip on ice.

Exceptional winter control and extended tread life
Wide outer shoulder blocks increase the tire’s contact patch, ensuring better ground pressure distribution and longer wear. The 3D Winter Sipe system, with its serrated design, improves braking performance and overall stability on snowy surfaces. This combination provides drivers with responsive handling and increased safety during winter maneuvers such as cornering and emergency braking.

Optimized drainage and fuel efficiency
The V-shaped tread pattern and wide lateral grooves work together to channel water away efficiently, reducing the risk of hydroplaning. This tread design also enhances grip on slushy and wet roads. Additionally, Hankook’s Optimized Curing process ensures that all tire components are finely tuned, lowering rolling resistance. As a result, the tire supports improved fuel economy while maintaining high winter performance.
