Like the original version of this model (without the SUV abbreviation in the name), the summer Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric SUV was created for cars that can quickly accelerate to very high speeds. Today, there are many such models among crossovers and SUVs. This model is designed for them, featuring uncompromising handling, surprisingly combined with a smooth and quiet ride. High operational characteristics are ensured due to the use of advanced technologies and modern materials in the design of this tire.
Exceptional stability and stability in turns
One of such technologies is Active CornerGrip. This technology is a whole range of design features that provide the tire with incredible stability and stability of traction properties when turning and making sharp maneuvers. This ability is the result of optimized distribution of external pressure on the contact patch during strong lateral accelerations, the size and shape of which remain unchanged. All these features are achieved due to the design of the shoulder area from the outside of the tread.
It contains a large number of very long transverse blocks that the tire relies on when turning. At the same time, the area and shape of the contact patch of each of them remain unchanged due to the optimized profile of the shoulder area from the outside of the tread.
Good handling in adverse road conditions
When developing the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric SUV model, special attention was paid to ensuring maximum safety in adverse road conditions. To a large extent, this is due to the choice of developers in favor of an asymmetric tread pattern. One of its main advantages is good traction on surfaces with various characteristics, including those covered with a water film. To divert it from the contact patch, a large number of longitudinal and transverse grooves are used. The first ones are distinguished by a significant internal volume, and the second ones are located at a large angle relative to the direction of movement. Such a drainage system is able to quickly drain the contact patch even in heavy rain, regardless of the speed of movement.
Another factor that determines the reliable and stable grip of this tire in bad weather is the characteristics of the tread compound. Its composition is distinguished by a high content of silica. Thanks to this component, it adheres more closely to the cold, wet road surface, providing more reliable grip with it. In addition to silica, the compound includes special functional polymers that improve its tear strength at very high elasticity. With their help, the integrity of the tread and its resistance to abrasive wear are ensured.
Main features of the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric SUV tire
- Active CornerGrip technology provides exceptional stability when turning and maneuvering due to massive transverse blocks in the shoulder areas and an optimized profile that keeps the shape and size of the contact patch unchanged when subjected to lateral acceleration forces;
- excellent directional stability, fast and accurate responses to steering wheel turns thanks to a stiff longitudinal rib in the center of the tread;
- reliability and stability in adverse weather conditions are achieved due to a compound with a high silica content and a high-performance drainage system.
