OVERVIEW
The Goodyear Assurance Duraplus is a performance, all season tire made for passenger vehicles. Goodyear offers a 60,000 miles tread warranty.
The model offers great all weather traction. The all season tire compound and the asymmetric tread design upgrade the year round performing capability. The compound keeps the tire flexible in different temperatures, from hot summers to cold winter weather conditions. The tread elements increase the gripping ability in dry, wet, and winter weather. The tread also promotes hydroplaning resistance. The center grooves channel water away from the footprint and keep the tire's contact with the road surface at all times. The better traction and the constant road contact ensure a safer driving experience.
The TreadLife technology and the carbon-based tread compound increase the tread life. The maintained surface contact of the ribbed tread design greatly improves the pressure distribution across the tread area. This model also uses the DuPont Kevlar compound, which is a lightweight material which helps to strengthen the tire. This strong compound elements optimize the rubber flexibility in versatile temperatures, slowing the treadwear rate down. This maximized rubber volume also protects the tires from damage, such as punctures, tearing, or cutting. The combination of these two elements significantly boosts the tire's service life.
The ribbed tread design manages to maintain the surface contact at all times. This greatly boosts steering responsiveness and driving stability. The maintained road contact upgrades the steering response time and accuracy to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. The shoulder block pattern firmly grips the road surface with the biting edges, boosting the cornering and maneuvering capability.
The Assurance Duraplus guarantees better driving comfort levels. The asymmetric tread design and the advanced carbon tread compound minimize road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin. These prevent road disturbances from reaching the passengers, offering an enjoyable driving experience.
