The all-season tire Goodyear Fortera SL is designed for crossovers, pickups, and SUVs equipped with large-diameter wheels. It is characterized by improved traction and grip on dry and wet surfaces, precise handling, and effective braking.
The tread pattern is distinguished by a multitude of blocks. They are arranged in such a way as to maximize the length of the transverse edges. This increases the traction force and braking efficiency on wet surfaces, along with the notched lamellas in these elements. The wide longitudinal rib in the middle and the enlarged blocks in the shoulder areas improve maneuverability stability, ensuring precision handling. The wide longitudinal grooves and the direction of some drainage elements against the direction of motion reduce the risk of aquaplaning at almost any speed.
Key features:
- the distribution of blocks in groups increases traction on wet surfaces, reduces the length of the braking distance;
- the stiff middle rib improves directional stability on straights, reduces rolling resistance and wear;
- the increased contact patch and optimized placement of tread elements slow down wear, improve acoustic comfort.
