Goodyear Fortera SL Edition
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- All weather traction
- Enhanced controllability
- Longer lasting tread life
OVERVIEW
The Goodyear Fortera SL Edition is a performance all season tire manufactured for SUVs.
The tire guarantees first-rate all weather traction. The tread design's all season compound and directional tread pattern increase the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The all season compound manages to maintain its flexible traction even in colder temperatures, while the tread elements consistently grip the road surface throughout the year. The tread features zigzag circumferential grooves that disperse water and slush from below the tire's footprint. In this manner, the tire actively resists hydroplaning in wet and winter weather.
The directional tread design increases the tire's all weather controllability. Its continuous siped center rib closely follows the road surface at all times. This improves the steering responsiveness and driving stability significantly. In other words, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its responsiveness to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured during the drive. The stronger shoulder tread blocks provides additional biting edges that firmly grip the road surface. The better gripping ability enhances the tire's cornering and maneuvering capability and power. The directional tread's optimal pressure distribution avoids heat build-up, which enables the tire's high speed performing capability.
The tread design lengthens the tread life. The reinforced shoulder tread blocks promote a stiff tread area, which avoids tread flexing. The stabilized tread area manages to equally spread out the driving pressure along the tire's surface. The even circulation of the force of acceleration, cornering and braking effectively prevent the formation of irregular tread wear, extending the tread life and the tire's usability significantly.
The Fortera SL Edition offers a safer performance. The special sidewall design effectively guards the rims from accidental damages that may harm it during the drive.
