One of the standout features of the BluEarth Winter V905 is its commitment to meeting the strictest ecological standards set by the European Union and the United States. This is achieved through the use of innovative proprietary technologies, including a unique tire compound that helps to reduce rolling resistance and improve fuel efficiency. The tire compound used in the BluEarth Winter V905 is a special blend of natural and synthetic rubber that provides excellent grip on winter roads while also being durable and long-lasting.

The tread pattern for these winter tires is based on the highly regarded Yokohama W.drive V905, which received high marks from independent experts at the German car club ADAC in 2015. The tread design of the BluEarth Winter V905 features a series of large, deep grooves and siping, which help to evacuate water and slush from the contact patch to improve wet and slushy traction.
