Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance C+

The Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance C+ summer tire differs from other models of the North American brand in several ways. Its operational properties are designed to provide maximum efficiency on wet roads. Under such conditions, the tire demonstrates excellent traction properties and high braking intensity. At the same time, it was possible to preserve the "signature" feature of the EfficientGrip line, namely reduced rolling resistance and, as a consequence, pronounced fuel efficiency and long service life.

The tire features the FuelSaving technology, which is a comprehensive set of technical solutions that have affected almost all components of the tire. In particular, a special cord winding is used, which allows significantly reducing the heating of the carcass during prolonged high-speed driving. Additionally, the rubber compound has increased thermal conductivity, which further reduces rolling resistance.

On the move, the tire is favorably distinguished by improved traction properties during intense deceleration. This is largely due to the use of the ActiveBreaking technology. In this mode, the contact patch is increased due to programmable zones of deformation of the carcass and tread. This feature is most noticeable on wet surfaces, where this model is one of the best in terms of braking distance.

In the rim area, the tire has a special shape that prevents mechanical damage to the wheel disc when driving over an obstacle, such as a curb. At the same time, a special rubber compound is used in the manufacture of the sidewall, which has increased resistance to wear, punctures, and cuts.

Key Features of Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance C+

- FuelSaving technology reduces tire heating during prolonged high-speed driving, reducing fuel consumption and increasing mileage before replacement;
- programmable zones of deformation of the carcass and tread increase the contact patch during braking;
- special rim shape and extra-durable rubber compound of the sidewall prevent damage to wheel discs when driving over curbs;
- availability of versions with polyurethane foam on the inner side of the tire, reducing the level of noise and vibrations on uneven roads.
