Introduction to the Assurance WeatherReady 2

Goodyear has recently unveiled the second generation of its popular Assurance WeatherReady all-season tire, aptly named the Assurance WeatherReady 2. Designed to fit most production vehicles, this new iteration continues to build on the success of its predecessor.

Performance and Testing

According to Goodyear, the WeatherReady 2 showcased industry-leading performance during rigorous in-house testing. In comparative tests against the Michelin CrossClimate2, Bridgestone WeatherPeak, and Pirelli Scorpion WeatherActive, the WeatherReady 2 outperformed its rivals in categories like wet handling, wet braking, and dry handling. However, it is noteworthy that, as always, on-road results may vary based on specific driving conditions and vehicle types.

All-Weather Capabilities

Much like the first-generation WeatherReady, the new WeatherReady 2 is three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) rated. This certification indicates that the tire has passed crucial acceleration tests in medium-packed snow, achieving at least 110 percent of the traction of a standard all-season reference tire. While the WeatherReady 2 offers commendable all-weather performance, it’s important to acknowledge that dedicated winter tires may provide better control under severe winter conditions.

Design and Availability

The Assurance WeatherReady 2 boasts a redesigned tread pattern featuring a built-in wear gauge. This gauge allows drivers to monitor tread life effectively as the tire ages. As a versatile all-season option for family sedans and crossovers, the WeatherReady 2 is available in 58 sizes, ranging from 16 to 22 inches in wheel rim diameter. Additionally, Goodyear offers a 60,000-mile tread-life limited warranty, enhancing the tire’s appeal and reliability.

Conclusion

The launch of the Assurance WeatherReady 2 marks a significant step forward for Goodyear in the realm of all-season tires. With its impressive performance in key testing areas and versatile design, it is poised to be a top choice for drivers seeking reliability and all-weather capabilities.
