The combination of an innovative racing construction compound with Active CornerGrip technology offers efficient tire-to-road weight distribution for heavier vehicles, as well as maximizing traction for comfortable driving on wet and dry roads. Goodyear's Active CornerGrip technology also helps increase cornering stability by expunging the contact patch with the road. The asymmetric tread design helps reduce road noise for a quiet ride experience, while the wide channels in the tread pattern increase water flow to prevent hydroplaning. The low-profile treads with an aggressive tread pattern and large rim specifications can also help add to the visual appeal of 4x4s or SUV.
