Test summer tires Goodyear Excellence: superior comfort

In recent years, more and more attention to comfort and safety. Airbags, traction control, power steering, anti-lock brakes are actually inherent attributes that should be present in every car. Powerful and high-tech engines require good liaison between the body and the road. This link is a good tire. Manufacturers of automobile tires annually produce several new models, confused man in the street very easily. The main requirements that consumers want from their tires - it's safety, comfort and an acceptable service life. And the owners of powerful and high-speed machines emit a consumer preference as the control of the car during the rain. April 12 at the Dmitrov avtopoligone presentation and test drive a new high speed tires Goodyear Excellence. According to sales manager Ltd. Goodyear Rush "Marek Glavacha to meet the needs of a large layer of motorists, the tire Goodyear Excellence is presented in Russia in one of the widest ranges of sizes. In turn, the manager of professional and technical matters of Cyril Baranowski, a presentation of new tires Goodyear Excellence, which includes a detailed account of the technical features and characteristics of tires. In fact Goodyear Excellence is not a novelty in Russia, she appeared on store shelves last year. Such a late presentation of the company's representatives explained that they were waiting for the appearance in stores of all possible sizes to meet the needs of the largest possible range of consumers. Tires Goodyear Excellence created under the motto - safety, comfort and handling. In the model lineup Goodyear, they occupy a niche between the budget and practical Hydragrip and athletic Eagle F1. In the tread Excellence model introduces a new patented technology for security, which aims to keep control on wet roads. The design of wide and deep grooves formed so as to allocate the largest possible amount of water from the road surface. In addition, an asymmetric tread design provides drainage of water through all connected to each other channels. High-tech part of the tire, reinforced with silica, improves safety on wet surfaces. Owners of high-power and high performance cars pay more attention to the comfort created by the tires. In view of this, the new Goodyear Excellence tire implemented two ideas which are designed to minimize the noise generated by tires. The first is in the central zone with long hard edges of the oblique angle of the blocks. The second idea is expressed by means of the patented technology Dual-Block Shifting, which lies in the fact that the sizes of tread blocks in the shoulder area of ??the tire and inner edges of the blocks vary in different sequences. To put in simple language, then such provision allowed the units to significantly reduce the noise level, because sloping blocks come into contact with the road gradually, and the edges of the tread blocks, thanks to technology Dual-Block Shifting, impinge on the pavement, not all at once, and one by one. In addition, the novelty used a new technology that provides uniform fit tires to rims, excluding vibration. In turn, the level of external noise model Goodyear Excellence exceed the new requirements the EU to the level of external noise, tires. The structure of the tire carcass ensures uniform adhesion of the tread to the road surface over the entire area of ??the contact. For a test drive, and presentations were selected BMW 525 and 530, as well as two of the Audi A6 3.0 liter capacity. We were able to test tires on the tracks, spaced cones, and a variety of exercises included perestavku, "snake", the dispersal and intensive braking. To get as close to real conditions, we had the opportunity to test tires on a completely different coverages - wet and dry asphalt, gravel, cobblestone and uneven pavement. Unfortunately, talking about any specific advantages or disadvantages of new items is difficult due to the fact that the test took place within one day, and after a few short races to judge about some consumer characteristics of rather complicated. However, it should be noted that even run-in tires Goodyear Excellence showed decent control on wet pavement. Car, shod in these tires confidently take turns, performs perestavku and snake. In addition, the novelty of Goodyear has one of the lowest noise in the classroom. In addition to the standard option tires Goodyear Excellence are made with the technology RunOnFlat, which allows in the case of a puncture or pressure drop, drive another 80 miles at speeds up to 80 km / h. However, this option is possible only on vehicles equipped with automatic tire pressure monitoring. The quality of the new tire is the fact that the original equipment tires Goodyear Excellence RunOnFlat technology installed on BMW 1,3-series, BMW X5, Mini, Audi A3, Volkswagen Passat, and many others. At the end of the test-drive organizers have arranged for the journalists present, competition on the skill of driving and racing on the speed with experienced test pilots. The winners were awarded certificates for a set of tires Goodyear Excellence. In Russia, the tires Goodyear Excellence is available in 46 tiporazmerpah disc diameter from 14 to 18 inches, with a speed index of 210 to 270 km / h. The average price for tire dimensions 195/60 R15 is about 3500 rubles. It is easy to identify and key competitors Goodyear Excellence - is primarily the Michelin Primacy HP, as well as the Bridgestone Potenza RE001 Adrenalin.
