Saves fuel, saves money, better for the environment.
Use less fuel, get more performance.
Using the latest developments in manufacturing techniques and advanced
materials, our Goodyear engineers have developed a FuelSaving technology
to reduce fuel consumption without reducing performance. EfficientGrip tyre’s
lightweight structure is fabricated from innovative materials including a new
generation of tread compound that helps reduce the amount of energy needed
to propel the tyres. In short this tyre is one of the environment’s best
friends.
But don’t just take our word for it.
Independent performance tests by German testing and certification company
TUV SUD Automotive, have found that the Goodyear EfficientGrip performs
exceptionally:
*Compared to the average performance of 4 leading competitors. Tested by TUV SUD Automotive in March 2009. Tyre size 205/55R16. Test car: VW Golf. Report # 76236753
| Features | Benefits |
|---|---|
Unique FuelSaving Technology:
|
Improved fuel efficiency Reduced CO2 emission and environmental impact |
| Silica tread compound using latest generation of polymers | High mileage Environmental friendly Superior wet braking performances |
| Multi functional blading | Better braking performance on wet surfaces |
| Variable tread block angle and arrangement | Quiet ride |
Long lasting performance.
The tyre that keeps gripping.
The Goodyear OptipGrip tyre offers you excellent performance for longer.
Its longevity comes thanks to SmartWear technology – as the tyre wears,
hidden channels below the tread surface are revealed so new grooves come
into contact with the driving surface. This in effect replaces the tread keeping
the tyre’s water evacuation extremely efficient and reduces the likelihood
of aquaplaning.
Wet or dry.
Combined with its dual-layered compound for high levels of grip and vehicle
control in the wet and a 3D interlocking mechanism to maximise handling
and mileage in the dry, and this is the tyre that offers you consistent function
over its lifetime.
| Features | Benefits |
|---|---|
| Hidden Grooves | Worn aquaplaning resistance |
| Dual-layer compound | Dry handling and mileage Wet braking and handling |
| 3D interlocking mechanism | New tyre handling performance |
| Pattern pitch sequence | Quiet ride |


The High performance tyre for high performance cars.
The asymmetric Eagle F1 has been developed specifically with high performance,
luxury cars in mind. These cars demand a tyre that’s responsive
to their predictive safety systems and keeps their raw power under control.
Roll on the Goodyear Eagle F1, a tyre that balances performance and control
in equal measure.
More Grip, more of the time.
The Eagle F1 combines our revolutionary Active Cornergrip Technology with
compounds derived from our racing pedigree. The result is a tyre that distributes
pressure evenly when cornering at high speeds and that means
you’ve got more tyre in contact with the road more o the time (versus the
previously produced Eagle F1 GSD3).
| Features | Benefits |
|---|---|
| Revolutionary asymmetric tread design and
construction |
Utilising all the latest Goodyear technology |
| Even pressure distribution and increased road contact (versus the Eagle F1 GSD2) | Enhanced cornering and grip |
| Inner tread zone compression | More tread in contact with the road Enhanced wet handling Helps reduce aquaplaning |
| Optimised pitching sequence | A quieter, smoother ride |
The stop-start tyre that never stops.
In the hectic whirl of urban driving you need a tyre that can withstand an
infinite number of red lights, roadworks, crossings and hold ups. DuraGrip
tyres combine technology used in our test-winning HydraGrip and Excellence
tyres to cope with all the stops and starts you can throw at them.
On and on.
As well as giving you a technologically advanced tyre, DuraGrip also lasts for
miles and miles. All with the reassurance that a premium brand like
Goodyear brings. Drivers of small city cars can’t fail to be impressed with
this though little street fighter.
| Features | Benefits |
|---|---|
| Asymmetric tread pattern with closed outside design | Better dry handling and a quieter ride |
| Open inside design | Helps to reduce aquaplaning and improves performance in the wet |
| 3D-BIS technology | Better handling and more stability |
| Continuous ribs | For a quieter ride and better dry handling |


The tyre a puncture can’t stop.
A puncture is every motorist’s worst nightmare. Crouching by the roadside
changing the wheel, you’re going nowhere fast. Fortunately, Goodyear are
making that a thing of the past with RunOnFlat tyres.
RunOnFlat technology reinforces the sidewalls of the tyre, when a puncture happens, the sidewalls don’t collapse like they would normally, which means that the tyre stays on the rim and will carry your car for up to 50 miles (at 50 mph).
Many leading car manufacturers such as BMW, Mercedes, Ford and Range Rover now it these tyres as either a standard or option fit. For drivers who choose RunOnFlat the benefits are outstanding:
Control
Mobility
Convenience
GOODYEAR RUNONFLAT TYRES SHOULD ONLY BE MOUNTED ON CARS DESIGNED FOR RUN FLAT TYRES AND EQUIPPED WITH A FULLY OPERATING PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM DEVICE.
