PR is an abbreviation of "ply rating". This label originally indicated the number of layers of cotton fishing line in the shell. A large number of bearings means a higher load capacity. When stronger materials were introduced for bearings, this term was removed from the actual number of bearings. Currently, a tire with 8 PR can only have four nylon linear bearings. Today, the stability of a controlled tire is expressed in terms of load capacity and speed capacity, and not in terms of the ply rating.
Use the same tyre all year-round thanks to Goodyear's Weather Reactive Technology, which lets your tyre adapt to changing weather. The tyre's SmartTRED pattern consists of several distinct tread sections to cope with different road conditions, while firm tread blocks allow for precision and stability on corners.
Reliable traction
Stay in control no matter what road conditions you meet. With an all-weather compound for year-round grip and high-density 3D waffle blades to take on ice and snow, the Vector 4Seasons Gen-1 delivers excellent performance across the seasons.
Resistance to aquaplaning
Drive with confidence in rain, snow or dry conditions with the Vector 4Seasons Gen-1. With enhanced aquaplaning resistance and braking distances that are shorter even on ice, you'll roll through the winter with ease.
Save on fuel
Cut fuel costs and reduce your CO2 emissions with a tyre that rolls with less resistance, for a more environmentally friendly drive. You'll also get better mileage due to the all-weather compound and even pressure distribution, which improve performance efficiency in all conditions.
