OVERVIEW

The Goodyear Eagle RS-A EMT is a high performance all season run flat tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.

The tire is a run flat model. Its reinforced sidewalls are capable of temporarily withstanding the weight of the vehicle and the passengers in case of air pressure loss. This means that the tire can be driven on for 50 miles up to a speed of 50 mph after the air pressure leaves the tire due to a puncture or cut. In this manner, the driver does not get stranded on the side of the road when a puncture occurs, but they are able to safely drive to a destination where they can fix or exchange the tires. Run flat tires are heavier in construction and due to this they cannot be mixed together with regular tires on the same vehicle.

The model has great all weather traction and it grips the road well in dry, wet and winter weather conditions thanks to the asymmetrical tread pattern design. The tread grooves increase the wet weather traction and prevent hydroplaning situations by eliminating water and slush from below the tire footprint. The excellent traction, along with the good durability, improve the high speed driving ability. The reinforced internal structure maintains the tire's shape under the high speed driving pressure. As the tire does not deform under the pressure, it is capable of performing to its utmost capability.

The steering responsiveness, driving stability and cornering ability improve the tire's handling. The steering responsiveness and driving stability are the result of the asymmetric tread pattern's increased road contact. The better road contact stabilizes the tire against the external driving forces and enable a quick and precise steering responsiveness. The shoulder tread block sequence increases the road gripping ability with its additional biting edges and improves the cornering and maneuvering ability and power. These aspects make the tire's control and handling effortless.

The Eagle RS-A EMT's special tread pattern design lowers the road noise heard in the cabin of the vehicle. It channels the airwaves through the tire footprint without letting them come into
