Goodyear launches the Wrangler TripleMax Tyre for SUVs

By CARSIFU | 21 October 2016


SUBANG JAYA: Designed for mid-size SUVs, the new Goodyear Wrangler TripleMax tyre delivers shorter wet braking performance and more driving fun.

The Wrangler TripleMax tyre has an improved version of Goodyear's proprietary Hydrogrip technology, along with its innovative tread design, optimised carcass and high grip compound.

Goodyear’s Hydrogrip technology provides an innovative new tread compound, maximising control via a larger surface area contact patch, which translates to more rubber contact on the road.

It improves braking ability by way of biting edges with large block elements.

The tyres also have a wide face and optimised cavity, and concentrates pressure distribution on key block elements during braking.

This gives the tyres better grip and a shorter braking distance on wet roads.

To protect the rim and tyre against road hazards, the Wrangler TripleMax has a rim flange protector, which provides more material on the sidewall.

“Goodyear is known for creating a culture of safety innovations that stay ahead of the competition. The unpredictable weather and road conditions in Malaysia calls for a tyre that delivers on all fronts and the new Wrangler TripleMax delivers Goodyear’s continued brand promise for safer and more enjoyable rides for drivers and their families,” said Goodyear Malaysia managing director Ben Hoge.

In Malaysia, the Wrangler TripleMax is offered in 16, 17 and 18-inch rim sizes, and retails from RM443.72 to RM675.22 inclusive of GST.
