#23521ti.1007
AKRON, Ohio, Oct. 26, 2007 – Two new offerings for popular police pursuit vehicles are now available through The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company, a longtime supplier of tires for police and emergency response vehicles.
Goodyear is announcing the addition of the P225/60R18 tire size in its Eagle RS-A and Eagle Ultra Grip GW3 lines, intended for use on the Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum police pursuit vehicles.
The Eagle RS-A is a high-performance tire featuring aggressive shoulder tread blocks for enhanced handling capability and wide circumferential grooves to channel water away. Long a popular choice for police vehicles, the Eagle RS-A also has high-tensile steel belts for responsive handling and strength.
The Eagle Ultra Grip GW3 is a high-performance winter tire. Features of the tire include V-TRED radial grooves, 3-D bubble-blade block interlocking system and a silica tread compound for enhanced wet and winter performance.
The tires were approved for police pursuit use after being subjected to testing, including Eagle RS-A evaluation by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department in its annual vehicle tests.
Goodyear is the industry’s leading supplier of police pursuit tires, and is the largest tire manufacturer in North America.
