Goodyear Eagle ResponsEdge radials are Grand Touring All-Season tires developed to enhance the capabilities of sport coupes and sedans. The Eagle ResponsEdge is designed to offer year-round traction on dry, wet and lightly snow-covered roads, while delivering a blend of responsive handling and comfortable ride qualities that allow drivers to feel the road, not the rumble. Eagle ResponsEdge tires feature an asymmetric tread design with solid shoulder blocks and a continuous intermediate rib on the outboard portion to improve responsiveness and cornering stability. Diagonal aquachutes, deep shoulder grooves and TredLock sipes on the inboard portion enhance foul-weather traction. The asymmetric tread design is completed through the use of dual-zone tread compounds with a high-grip sport compound on the outboard portion and a high silica content all-season compound on the inboard portion. The tire's structure includes twin steel belts cushioned by Goodyear's InsuLayer of spirally wrapped Kevlar®. Polyester body plies also feature an asymmetric design with a carbon fiber reinforced outboard sidewall to enhance responsiveness and cornering stability while providing flexibility to cushion the ride.
