Description
Engineered for the harshest winter conditions, the NANKANG WS-1 is a high-performance winter tire designed to deliver exceptional grip, control, and safety on snow-covered and icy roads. With advanced tread technologies and a compound formulated specifically for cold weather, the WS-1 ensures reliable traction and handling even in extreme winter environments.
- External tread pattern with zig-zag grooves and polygonal blocks for enhanced snow traction and control
- Internal straight groove design with a 27.5% groove area ratio for superior water drainage and straight-line stability
- Jagged 3D Sipe Pattern technology for increased tread rigidity and better ice handling
Enhanced snow control through zig-zag groove and polygonal block design
The external tread area of the WS-1 features a unique zig-zag groove pattern combined with polygonal-shaped blocks. This design increases the contact patch between the tire and the road, significantly improving grip on snowy surfaces. The additional biting edges created by this configuration help with both acceleration and braking performance in packed or fresh snow.
Reliable straight-line driving and efficient water evacuation
The inner tread pattern incorporates straight grooves that contribute to directional stability, especially on wet or icy roads. A carefully engineered 27.5% groove area ratio boosts the WS-1’s ability to channel water and slush away from the contact area. This helps reduce the risk of hydroplaning and maintains traction in slushy or partially thawed conditions.
Advanced ice performance with Jagged 3D Sipe Pattern and unique tread compound
Equipped with Jagged 3D Sipe Pattern technology, the WS-1 features interlocking sipes that increase tread block stiffness, resulting in better handling on icy surfaces. Additionally, the tread compound includes hard natural kernel powder, which allows the tire to effectively bite into ice for superior traction. This innovative compound enhances grip and ensures dependable performance throughout the winter season.

Great prices, amazing selection, and very helpful customer service. When I messaged their chat to revise an order that had 'shipped' they pulled the tires right off the FedEx truck and put the different size on the same day. Perfect experience.
