Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric SUV-4X4 (OE). FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Summer weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Reduced road noise levels; Jaguar original equipment; . OVERVIEW: The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric SUV-4X4 (OE) is a high performance summer tire manufactured for SUVs. This model is the original equipment tire for select vehicles.The tire offers excellent summer weather traction. The tread design and the tire compound work together to ensures first-rate dry and wet weather road grip. The compound features silica to increase the wet weather traction, carbon black to boost the dry road grip and polymers to ensure tread stiffness. The asymmetric tread design also features a smoother dry tread zone and a wet tread zone that enhances the wet weather traction. The wet weather traction is further enhanced with the excellent hydroplaning resistance, which is achieved with the water dispersing ability of the wide circumferential grooves. The model, however, it not meant to be used in winter weather as the compound and the tread design to not maintain the exceptional grip in colder temperatures.The model is also easily controlled. The tread pattern enhances its controllability with the better maintained road contact. The solid center rib increases the steering responsiveness and the driving stability with the constant road contact. In other words, the steering becomes fast and precise, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure. The tire's cornering ability is also enhanced as the shoulder tread blocks and the Active CornerGrip technology evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tire to increase the number of biting edges. This results in an upgraded cornering and maneuvering capability, even at high speeds. The special tire compound also allows the tire to perform to its best capability. The compound keeps its flexibility under the high speed driving pressure and heat and ensures exceptional traction throughout the tire's life.The Eagle F1 Asymmetric SUV-4X4 (OE) guarantees a quiet drive. The specialized tread design manages to decrease the road noise levels heard in the vehicle's cabin. The tread prevents airwaves from entering the tire's footprint and coming into contact with the tread elements, which creates road and tread pattern noise, while the tires are in motion. The result is a quiet and comfortable driving experience. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
