The Eagle GT-HR is Goodyear's High
Performance All-Season radial designed to be sporty, durable &
attractively priced. The Eagle GT-HR was developed to blend good
treadwear, responsive handling & dependable traction on dry &
wet roads, as well as in light snow.
On the outside, the Eagle GT-HR features
independent tread blocks molded into a directional tread design to
help pump water through the tire's footprint to increase
hydroplaning resistance & wet traction, while lateral grooves &
multiple tread block sipes increase the number of biting edges to
enhance wet road & light snow traction. Sequencing tread block
shapes & sizes reduce road noise to increase driving comfort. On
the inside, the Eagle GT-HR features twin, high-tensile steel belts
on top of Goodyear's RaceWrap Construction Technology developed for
the Eagle Race tires used in NASCAR competition. RaceWrap
Construction Technology brings a casing ply down the sidewall at a
slight angle, wraps around the bead & returns it all of the way up
the sidewall until it ends under the edge of the steel belts. This
slightly angled, two-ply sidewall promotes steering response,
handling stability & durability while the single ply under the
tread reduces tire weight.
The Goodyear Eagle GT-HR radial's
sidewall styling features black letters reversed out of a serrated
circumferential band, & is available in 65-, 60-, 55- &
50-series, H-speed rated sizes in 14" through 16" rim diameters.
