Goodyear Eagle Enforcer Winter 245/55R18, Winter, Performance tires.

Features and Benefits: High speed durability; Winter weather traction; Increased controllability; Goodyear Eagle Enforcer Winter TiresThe Goodyear Eagle Enforcer Winter is a performance, winter tire made for SUVs. This model was designed for law enforcement vehicles. This model promotes excellent high speed durability. It uses the ActiveForce technology which combines a stronger structure and durable compound. As a result, the tire promotes a safer performance. In other words, the structure does not deform under pressure, while the compound avoids heat and pressure accumulation. This allows the tire to securely perform at its best high speed ability, making it perfect for pursuit applications. Winter weather traction is promoted. The winter compound and detailed directional tread design enable the tire to perform at its best ability on ice- and snow-covered surfaces. The rubber materials keep the tire pliable even in freezing temperatures, while the sipe detail provides additional biting edges. The V-Tred technology helps to channel water and slush from below the footprint, thanks to the angled lateral grooves. This effectively avoids hydroplaning. In this manner, the tire offers severe winter traction without the use of studs. The Goodyear Eagle Enforcer Winter improves its controllability. The directional tread design enables the tire's consistent surface contact, which is achieved with the help of the ActiveResponse technology. This boosts its steering responsiveness and driving stability, enabling the driver's control over the vehicle. The shoulder blocks, with the sipe placement, upgrade the tire's cornering ability. The sipe and groove pattern also generates friction at the moment of braking, shortening the tire's stopping distance. 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.
