Quality performance criteria

Many tests. One answer: Goodyear.

Our Summer, Winter and All-Season tyres aren't just innovative they're also highly ranked by experts.

This is quality you can rely on: Goodyear’s Summer, Winter and All-Season tyres have been tested by independent European tire magazines over the past 5 years – with excellent results.

That’s because Goodyear’s engineers test each new tyre design against more than 50 performance criteria. To ensure each Goodyear tyre leads to a better driving experience.

Goodyear engineers’ internal testing

We put every new tyre we design through 50 tough tests to make sure they perform as well as they were designed to.

Why? Because our customers matter to us, and because we want every product that carries the Goodyear brand to live up to our high standards. The 50 tests include:

• Wet and dry handling and braking
• Mileage and durability
• Internal noise
• Aquaplaning – curved and straight
• Traction
• High-speed stability
• Our winter tyres also get tested for performance in ice, snow and other winter conditions.
