When you look at a set of Goodyear or Falken tires, you just know that they perform well. But why is that what makes good tires... good? This question can go one of two ways, a scientific breakdown of the construction and materials of the wheel, and a simpler explanation of the factors that contribute to it. If you are here you probably want the latter one, so keep on reading! 1. Traction and Grip Traction is the tire's ability to grip the road surface, ensuring that your vehicle maintains control even in challenging conditions.
