Goodyear Eagle Sport TZ. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: High speed controllability; Upgraded maneuvering ability; Longer lasting tread life; Summer weather traction; High driving comfort levels; . OVERVIEW: The Goodyear Eagle Sport TZ is a performance and high performance, summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.The tire improves the high speed controllability. The asymmetric tread design features three center ribs which maintains the surface contact throughout the drive. This upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. The steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. This tread design, along with the heat-resistant compound and the durable construction, manages to ensure the tire's high speed durability. They ease the pressure off the tire, prevent heat build-up and maintain the ideal tire shape under the high speed pressure to enable the tire's best high speed performing ability.The ideal tread design also upgrades the maneuvering capability. The detailed, high-density siping placement along the tread area helps the tire shorten the braking distance. This is achieved by creating friction between the tire and the road surface, which further enhances the braking power. The tread design's shoulder block placement heightens the number of biting edges gripping the road surface during the drive. This enables the tire's stronger grip during cornering and maneuvering, optimizing the tire's surface grip during the drive.The tread pattern helps upgrade the summer weather traction. The detailed asymmetric tread design's circumferential grooves and optimal groove placement allows the tire to successfully channel water from below the footprint. As water trapped on the road surface in puddles is unable to cut off the tire's surface contact, the tire actively avoids hydroplaning. Hydroplaning is a dangerous road hazard, which can easily lead to accidents in wet weather. By resisting it, the model greatly upgrades the wet weather driving security levels. Furthermore, the tread design and the summer compound ensure the tire's surface grip throughout the year, promoting a safer summer traction.The tread design and the summer compound upgrade the tread life length. The asymmetric ribbed tread design optimizes the surface contact and enables the tire to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally spread out forces of acceleration, cornering and braking avoids irregular wear formations across the tire's surface. The compound's heat resistance, on the other hand, actively prevents heat build-up along the tread area by easing the driving pressure off the tire. This allows the tire to prevent premature wear formations, resulting in an extended service life and usability.The Eagle Sport TZ also utilizes the tread design to boost the comfort levels. The asymmetric tread's variable pitch sequence helps lower the road noise levels heard while the tires are in motion. This variation generates a special sound frequency during the tire's performance, lowering the road noise levels heard in the vehicle's cabin. The result is a quiet driving experience as road disturbances are unable to ruin the passenger's driving enjoyment during the tire's performance. 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.
