Goodyear Vector 5

A distinctive feature of the Goodyear Vector 5 passenger tire is its versatility of application. This model, due to its wide size range, is suitable for most modern passenger cars, and thanks to its optimized compound and tread pattern, it is designed for use throughout the year.

Ability to adapt to any road conditions

This tire was one of the first to be developed using the SmartTRED Weather Reactive technology. Its essence lies in the division of the tread pattern into several functional zones, each of which improves a specific set of operational properties, often complementing and enhancing the action of each other. The practical result of the work of this technology is reliable traction properties that remain stable regardless of changes in road surface characteristics.

Excellent traction on any road

A significant part of the tire's traction properties is ensured by the tread design and physico-chemical properties of the compound. In particular, the central part of the tread contains a large number of small blocks with numerous lamellas. In turn, the shoulder areas feature massive transverse blocks. This design, on the one hand, improves traction on slippery roads covered with snow and water, and on the other hand, increases stability during maneuvering and braking efficiency.

As for the rubber compound, its main feature is the increased silica content. This component provides the tread with elasticity at low temperatures and traction on wet and snowy roads. The increased silica content was achieved through polymers that increased the compound's tear strength. Additionally, these compounds ensure the integrity of the tread under high-temperature exposure.

Key features of the Goodyear Vector 5 tire

- versatility of application due to a wide size range and tread pattern that provides reliable traction on both summer and winter surfaces;
- a compound with increased silica content and special polymers in its composition, which improves elasticity at low temperatures, traction on slippery roads, and ensures the integrity of the tread when driving at high speeds.
