Goodyear Presents Two New Tyres to the German Trade

Goodyear has introduced two new tyres to the German market; the “Excellence” high performance summer tyre and the forthcoming “Snow King” Ultra Grip 7. The “Excellence,” which is also aimed strongly at the original equipment business, replaces the Eagle NCT5 and will be available in 14 to 18 inch sizes and speed ratings H to Y. Available this spring, the tyre will come in 26 sizes of aspect ratios between 65 and 35. Some versions will also feature strengthened sidewalls, providing ‘run-flat’ characteristics. The new winter tyre replaces the UG 6 and, in addition, some Eagle Ultra Grip GW-3 tyres. The GW-3 is due to be replaced in two years time.
