SilentArmor Technology
Introducing the new Goodyear Fortera featuring SilentArmor Technology, our latest innovation that gives SUV drivers a strong, tough tire with the quiet, comfortable performance of a passenger car.
Technology
Not every Fortera gets to wear the SilentArmor Technology shield. The key to SilentArmor Technology lies just beneath the tread. A super absorbent layer between the tire's tread and underlying belts helps the new tires deliver a smooth and quiet riding experience.
Now, imagine a tire that is highly resistant to fatigue and almost all forms of punctures. A tire that you can keep driving in the event of air loss pressure; a tire that can carry you home or to a service station safely at any time. That’s what Goodyear’s RunOnFlat tire promises.
