The Falken Winterpeak F-ICE 1 is a studdable winter tire for cars and CUVs. Built with safety in mind it carries the 3 Peak Mountain Snowflake rating in order to handle the toughest of winter road conditions. The Winterpeak F-ICE 1 offers premium performance on ice, snow and freezing temperatures through its 4D Nano technology design, and a tread compound that stays flexible allowing more contact with the road, and enhancing grip on snow and ice. High density siping provides numerous biting edges for enhanced braking performance. The 3D Canyon Sipe Technology allows for more sipes across the tire surface, further enhancing traction in winter conditions. Curved tread grooves funnel water and slush away from the tire, allowing for the maximum contact with the road. When conditions get really tough you can install studs for further traction and safety. The Winterpeak F-ICE 1 is a great tire at a very reasonable price point.
