Assurance TripleTred All-Season

Gets on average 21% better wet traction than the leading competitor.

Goodyear Assurance TripleTred All-Season tires are the perfect blend of performance no matter what the road conditions are. The tires feature three tread zones, each with a different purpose depending on the weather. The middle of the tread pattern is the ice zone, featuring a unique interlocking tread pattern to maintain grip on icy roads. The wet tread zone offers dual Aquachannel grooves to push water away from the surface of the tire, giving you all the grip you need in the rain. The outside of the tread pattern is called the dry zone and offers exceptional dry weather cornering grip. The three of these put together makes the Assurance TripleTred tire one of the most complete around.

• Water zone has a sweeping tread pattern that helps evacuate water away from the tread for enhanced wet traction
• Ice zone has numerous biting edges offering enhanced gripping traction on icy and slick roads
• Dry zone has large tread blocks along the outer edges to help provide confident handling on dry roads
• Evolving traction grooves help maintain confident traction in rain and snow as the tire wears
• Eligible for an 80,000 mi./130,000 km Tread Life Limited Warranty on T- and H-speed rated sizes and a 70,000 mi./110,000 km Tread Life Limited Warranty on V-speed rated sizes
