The all-season tire Goodyear Wrangler SilentArmor is characterized, first of all, by the versatility of its application. This model is well suited for operation both on off-road and on highways. The "omnivorous" nature is ensured by the use of advanced technologies and the latest materials, previously used exclusively in racing.
Additional breaker layer
A significant part of the versatility of this model is provided by the additional breaker layer. It is made of DuPont's Kevlar. This material is distinguished by its exceptional mechanical strength, elasticity, and low weight. At the same time, modern winding methods have made it possible to create a solid structure without any seams or joints, with a very dense arrangement of Kevlar fibers. The practical result of this solution was the "signature" softness on the move, which has always distinguished Goodyear's off-road tires, as well as reliability in the most unfavorable operating conditions.
Reinforced sidewalls
Another design feature that gives the Goodyear Wrangler SilentArmor tire exceptional reliability is the reinforced sidewalls. They have a multi-layer structure. At the same time, the outer layer is made of a more rigid compound composition that is resistant to mechanical stress. In addition, the reinforced sidewall design allows the tire to be used with reduced internal pressure, which significantly expands its capabilities on off-road terrain.
Good traction properties on earth and sand
This model is equipped with a tread with a non-directional pattern and an open design. It contains many blocks, of which only three, but very wide, longitudinal ribs are formed. In the shoulder areas of the tread, they are located at a considerable distance, being collected in groups of two separate elements. Such a design provides the tire with excellent longitudinal traction properties, primarily on soils with reduced bearing capacity, which also has a positive effect on passability.
Rim protection
In addition to the multi-layer reinforced sidewall structure, this model's sidewalls are distinguished by the original rim design. It is designed to prevent dirt, stones, and other foreign objects from entering the space between the wheel disc and the tire rim. This feature significantly increases the service life even in harsh off-road operating conditions.
Good performance on highways
The tread pattern of this tire contains many individual blocks grouped into three longitudinal ribs. These component elements are characterized by a seamless structure and massive sizes. These design features significantly improve a number of operational properties, most of which are most clearly manifested when driving at high speeds on hard surfaces. First of all, this is directional stability, quickness and accuracy in response to the driver's actions, resistance to uneven wear, as well as fuel efficiency.
Main features of the Goodyear Wrangler SilentArmor tire
- the additional breaker layer made of Kevlar gives the tire softness on the move, as well as reduces the level of low-frequency vibrations and noise when driving on the highway, increases resistance to punctures and cuts;
- the multi-layer structure of the sidewalls provides protection against external mechanical stress, as well as allows movement with reduced pressure inside the tire;
- the optimized rim shape prevents dirt, stones, and other foreign objects from entering the space between it and the wheel disc, which increases reliability;
- good performance, both on highways and off-road, thanks to the optimized tread with an original open design.
