With its circumferential grooves and added sipes around the tread, you can expect to find confident handling on wet pavement. This combination gives the HTS60 a very good on-center feel and more responsive steering than the original.

The tread pattern has changed only slightly and does differ a bit between metric sizes and LT sizes.
