Multi-wave sipes are thin, modified slits manufactured in the shoulder block of a tire. As the tire wears the two walls of a multi-wave sipe interlock, decreasing block movement and keeping more of the tire tread in contact with the road surface. The results are improved wet and dry performance as well as reduced irregular wear and noise, which can be caused by irregular wear.
