Tire Description

The Eagle GT-HR is Goodyear's High Performance All-Season radial designed to be sporty, durable and attractively priced. The Eagle GT-HR was developed to blend good treadwear, responsive handling and dependable traction on dry and wet roads, as well as in light snow. On the outside, the Eagle GT-HR features independent tread blocks molded into a directional tread design to help pump water through the tire's footprint to increase hydroplaning resistance and wet traction, while lateral grooves and multiple tread block sipes increase the number of biting edges to enhance wet road and light snow traction. Sequencing tread block shapes and sizes reduce road noise to increase driving comfort. On the inside, the Eagle GT-HR features twin, high-tensile steel belts on top of Goodyear's RaceWrap Construction Technology developed for the Eagle Race tires used in NASCAR competition. RaceWrap Construction Technology brings a casing ply down the sidewall at a slight angle, wraps around the bead and returns it all of the way up the sidewall until it ends under the edge of the steel belts. This slightly angled, two-ply sidewall promotes steering response, handling stability and durability while the single ply under the tread reduces tire weight. The Goodyear Eagle GT-HR radial's sidewall styling features black letters reversed out of a serrated circumferential band, and is available in 65-, 60-, 55- and 50-series, H-speed rated sizes in 14" through 16" rim diameters.

Customer Reviews

Just purchased these tires to replace a set of Pirelli P-Zero Nero M+S which were the worst tires I've ever owned. Already, I've noticed the HR's at 40 series have a better ride than my 55 series stock tires on the stock 16 in. wheels. Compared to the Nero, the HR balanced much easier, has better grip from a stand still, lateral grip is at least equal (will have to play with the pressure to find the right setting), and the steering responsiveness is worlds better. The HR's actually have so much grip at the turn in I have to be careful of over-steer, that's much different than the Neros which always pushed and induced under-steer on my FWD car. My Mazda is light and this tire seems perfectly designed for it, I don't know how heavier cars will do but should be comparable as long as you get the proper weight rating (I'm running an "88" standard load). I have nothing on tread wear as these are brand new and also need to get them out in a SE-Texas rainstorm for a total review so I will update this review later, but my initial impression is solid and based on a test-drive route involving high speed interstate, city roads with pot-holes and curvy back road driving.
