Goodyear Eagle RS-A Plus (FO). FEATURES AND BENEFITS: High speed controllability; Upgraded maneuvering ability; All weather traction; . OVERVIEW: The Goodyear Eagle RS-A Plus (FO) is a performance, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles. This model is the original equipment tire of select Ford vehicles.The tire boosts the high speed handling with the tread design and the stronger internal structure. The ribbed tread design helps keep the tire's contact with the road surface constantly. This enhances the steering responsiveness and the driving stability throughout its performance. In this manner, the model is quicker and more precise in its response to the driver's steering commands, while its structurally stabilized against the driving pressure. The mode's reinforced internal structure maintains the ideal tire shape at all times, even under the high speed driving pressure. This enables the tire to increase the model's high speed performing power, as it will not deform under the pressure. This combination guarantees the driver's constant control over the vehicle.The tread pattern design also upgrades the model's maneuvering ability. The tread design's detailed elements manage to boost the cornering and braking capabilities. The siping density and lateral groove placement improve the braking power by generating friction between the tire and the road surface at the moment of braking. This results in the tire's shortened stopping distance. On the other hand, the tire's shoulder block pattern increases the cornering power. These blocks heighten the number of biting edges gripping the road surface during maneuvering, which guarantees the tire's secure cornering performance. As a result, the tire offers safer high speed maneuvering and performance.The Eagle RS-A Plus (FO) guarantees exceptional all weather traction. The all season compound and the detailed tread design are combined to improve the dry, wet and winter weather road grip. The tread design with its siping placement optimizes the rubber flexibility throughout the year, in various temperatures. The tread design's elements provide additional biting edges to grip onto the road surface all year round. The ideal groove placement avoids hydroplaning. The grooves channel water and slush from the footprint, preventing them from cutting off the tire's road surface contact. This guarantees a secure all weather 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.
