Winter weather often brings ice, slush, and snow with it, and these unforgiving conditions can make driving more difficult than it needs to be. Fortunately, winter tires are built to give drivers constant traction and performance in these conditions, and the Winguard Sport 2 from Nexen does that and more for drivers of performance-oriented passenger cars. Multiple sipes enhance grip for better braking performance on icy and snowy roads by creating additional biting edges, while large, wide grooves within the tread of the Winguard Sport 2 funnel water, slush, and snow away from the tire to reduce the risk of hydroplaning. The Winguard Sport 2 is built with durable materials for a longer tread life, and also features a directional tread pattern that improves traction and cornering on dry and snowy roads.
