Goodyear Eagle RS-A 235/55 R17 98W

Its affiliation with the flagship line of passenger tires Goodyear Eagle RS-A is evidenced not only by its name, but also by very high technical characteristics. At the same time, it should be noted that this model can be used all year round and can even be installed on pickup trucks, which gives it an unusually wide versatility for UHP tires. This is due, first and foremost, to the use of advanced technologies and materials in its design.

Unique Asymmetric Tread Pattern

When developing this model, the company's specialists gave preference to an asymmetric tread. It has versatile capabilities due to the fact that it provides those operational properties that are frankly poorly combined with each other. This was achieved by dividing the tread into several separate functional zones. Each of them improves a certain set of operational qualities. At the same time, many of them are the same for functional zones, which allows us to additionally improve the technical characteristics. As a result, this model simultaneously demonstrates a high level of comfort, excellent longitudinal grip and superior stability when cornering.

Reliable Traction on Any Slippery Surfaces

The possibility of using this model not only in summer but also in winter is provided due to the features of the tread design, both in its design and in the physical and chemical properties of the compound from which it is made. The tread pattern contains a large number of blocks. However, a significant part of the gripping edges is formed not by them, but by lamellas cut into them. This significantly improves traction on snow and ice. The tread compound is characterized by the fact that it consists of more than half of silica. This component gives the tire elasticity, and at the same time, improved traction characteristics on winter roads.

Main Features of the Goodyear Eagle RS-A Tire

- excellent balance between all operational characteristics due to the asymmetric tread;
- the possibility of using the tire on winter surfaces is provided due to the design of the tread pattern with numerous blocks and lamellas cut into them, as well as due to a compound with increased silica content.
