Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 SUV-4X4. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Summer weather traction; High speed controllability; Hydroplaning resistance; Shorter braking distance; . OVERVIEW: The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 SUV-4X4 is a high performance, summer tire made for crossover vehicles and SUVs.Summer weather traction is guaranteed with this model. The asymmetric tread design and the summer compound enhance the dry and wet weather grip on the road surface. The summer compound keeps the rubber flexible and prevents heat build-up in order to improve the hot temperature performance. The wide circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning, by channeling water away from the tread area. As a result, it prevents water from blocking the surface contact.The asymmetric tread design and the special rubber compound keep the surface contact at all times. The better road contact boosts steering responsiveness and driving stability, ensuring the driver's better control over the vehicle. This promotes a fast and precise steering response to the driver's commands. The special internal structure maintains the ideal tire shape and the heat-resistant compound also manages to enhance the high speed durability. This model's internal structure is made with double steel belts and a spirally wrapped polyamide cord which boost the driving stability and high speed capability. The lateral shoulder block pattern increases the number of biting edges gripping the road surface during maneuvering, which allows the tire to increase the cornering capability. This tread design enables easy control during high speed performance.The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 SUV-4X4 offers a shorter braking distance. The Active Braking Technology and the 3D elements improve the braking power and shorten the distance. The special tire compound and the asymmetric tread design boost the road grip during braking. They create friction at the moment of braking which ensures a reduced stopping distance and maximizes the braking ability. The better braking ability makes the tire easier to control in summer and wet weather conditions. This specific tire is marked with AO as it is the original equipment of Audi vehicles. 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.
