Goodyear introduced the Assurance WeatherReady 2, a tire that it said delivers unparalleled all-weather performance backed by industry-leading test results in wet handling, wet braking, and dry handling. The tire has set a new performance standard for all-season tires, according to Goodyear.
Goodyear tested the new Assurance WeatherReady 2 against similar competitor products. In head-to-head comparisons, the Assurance WeatherReady 2's premium performance came in first when testing for wet handling, wet braking, and dry handling, Goodyear said.
Featuring Versatile Tread Compound for Wet Weather
The tire maker said the Assurance WeatherReady 2 features all-weather technology and a versatile tread compound that adapts seamlessly to any weather condition.
AquaTred Technology is a testament to Goodyear's legacy in wet traction. Its sweeping Evolving Traction Grooves help efficiently move water and slush away from the tire, ensuring steadfast performance and grip in wet conditions.
The Assurance WeatherReady 2 tire also boasts the coveted Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMS) designation. This distinction indicates that the tire meets or surpasses certain stringent snow traction criteria established by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
"The Assurance WeatherReady 2 redefines what drivers can expect from an all-weather tire with its advanced technologies and superior handling capabilities, reflecting Goodyear's steadfast dedication to innovation and superior quality,” said Anne Johnson, director, category strategy and planning. “It's an ideal tire for drivers looking for a solution that will allow them to face any weather condition with utmost confidence and control."

Building on the history of the Assurance family of tires, the Assurance WeatherReady 2 features a built-in Wear Gauge that allows drivers to continuously monitor tire tread depth over the course of the 60,000-mile (95,000-kilometer) tread life limited warranty and a 60-day satisfaction guarantee.
