SmoothRide Comfort Tire

The SmoothRide Comfort Tire is designed for drivers who place ride quality and passenger comfort at the top of their priority list. Whether navigating potholed city streets, worn country roads, or long highway stretches, SmoothRide delivers a remarkably smooth and refined driving experience through a combination of advanced compound and carcass technology. The comfort-tuned carcass uses a high-turn-up construction that allows greater sidewall flex to absorb road shocks before they reach the vehicle suspension and cabin. The specialized comfort compound is formulated to dampen vibration frequencies most perceptible and fatiguing to human passengers, significantly reducing the noise and vibration transmitted into the vehicle. SmoothRide’s contact patch geometry maintains even pressure distribution across the full tread width to prevent the tramming and trampolining behavior that causes discomfort on uneven roads. Despite the comfort focus, SmoothRide maintains acceptable wet braking performance and adequate dry handling for everyday driving situations. The long-life compound ensures this tire provides years of comfortable service before replacement is required. Particularly well suited to luxury sedans, full-size SUVs, and family vehicles where passenger comfort is paramount, SmoothRide is also an excellent choice for drivers who suffer from back problems or sensitivity to vehicle vibration during long journeys.
