Toyo Eclipse

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• All weather traction
• Longer lasting tread life
• High driving comfort levels
• Enhanced controllability

OVERVIEW

The Toyo Eclipse is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. Toyo offers a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty with the H speed rated sizes and a 65,000 mile treadwear warranty with the T speed rated sizes. However, it does not offer a warranty with S and V speed rated sizes.

The tire boosts the all season traction. The all season tire compound and the ideal tread design upgrades the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The all season compound manages to keep the rubber flexibility in versatile temperatures. On the other hand, the tread design with the multi-wave siping pattern and the S-shaped lateral grooves heighten the number of biting edges gripping the road surface throughout the year. The optimized circumferential and lateral grooves disperse water and slush from the footprint, actively and effectively avoiding hydroplaning and boosting the wet and winter weather performance.

The tread design increases the tread life. The rigid shoulder stabilizing ribs and the full depth multi-wave sipes in the shoulder blocks work together to stabilize the tread elements. As a result, they prevent tread flexing. As the tread elements do not create unnecessary friction along the tread area, they enable the tire's footprint 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 tread area. In this manner, the tire enhances the tread life and the model's overall usability.

The model guarantees an enjoyable drive. The stabilized footprint enables the tire's close road contact throughout its performance. The close surface contact allows the tire to absorb the shock of driving, minimizing the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin during the drive. The tread design's special Silent Wall technology lowers the road noise levels. This technology reduces the pipe resonance by disrupting the airflow in the grooves, preventing the road and tread pattern noise heard by the passengers. As road disturbances cannot diminish the driving comfort of the passengers, the tire offers a quiet and comfortable driving experience.

The Eclipse enhances the controllability by maintaining the ideal surface contact. The tread design's center ribs optimize the road contact, which upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In this manner, the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the model throughout its performance. The tire also becomes quicker and more accurate in its responsiveness to the driver's steering instructions. The stabilized shoulder ribs and the optimized shoulder siping pattern increase the number of biting edges gripping the road surface, which increases the cornering and maneuvering ability and power. This combination ensures the driver's full control over the vehicle at all times.
