The all-season Goodyear Assurance ComforTred Touring tire can be used on various passenger vehicles. The model provides stable driving characteristics in various weather conditions, including light snow. It should be noted that the tire is oriented towards European winters, in which it demonstrates excellent traction and fast braking.
One of the main advantages of the model is its high level of comfort, which was achieved through the use of a special additional layer between the carcass and the tread - the ComfortLayer technology. In essence, this is a layer of soft rubber that absorbs vibrations that occur when driving on uneven roads, preventing them from being transmitted to the vehicle's body. In combination with noise suppression properties, this guarantees driving comfort at various speed modes.
The asymmetric tread, equipped with a large number of grooves and channels, allows maintaining contact efficiency on both dry and wet road surfaces. This is largely due to the numerous sharp edges that act as micro-grips. The three central ribs, which have additional reinforcements, are characterized by their rigid structure. This allows maintaining the level of maneuverability and guaranteeing "transparency" of control.
The reinforced carcass structure is also important, in which steel belts are used, covered with durable nylon on top. Thanks to this, even significant point loads are not able to damage the integrity of the tire, extending its service life.
