Sometimes, it's time to go. Fresh flakes fell overnight. The mountain beckons. Then a buddy calls as the coffee is brewing, and a swift decision is made: Cash in a vacation day and hit the slopes.
Play-hooky snowboarding often requires driving through slush to get to the slopes. If your vehicle looses traction on the way up the mountain, the fun can be done before it ever starts.
To help get you through the elements, the new Goodyear Wrangler All-Terrain Adventure with Kevlar tire has a tread pattern that's engineered for versatility. Optimized for both everyday highway and off-road driving, the Wrangler All-Terrain Adventure with Kevlar has traction ridges and open shoulders for mud and snow.
The Wrangler Adventure All-Terrain with Kevlar isn't just for inclement weather. Adventurers who want to load up the mountain bikes and head out to remote trailheads need tires for both their bikes and their trucks or SUVs.
"Pro-Grade" Wrangler All-Terrain Adventure with Kevlar LT sizes receive an additional Kevlar layer and 30 percent more belt steel than P-metric standard-load sizes. LT sizes also wear the Severe Snow Conditions sidewall symbol — signifying a passing grade for the Rubber Manufacturers Association snow and ice traction-testing standards.
To re-state the obvious, you can't do it if you aren't there. Your kayak can be on the roof rack and your gear packed, but you won't get there if flagstone-infested trails shred sidewalls on the way to the upper-most drop-in spot. And those stout rainbow trout won't wait for dinner while you're fishing for the spare tire.
To help prevent this from happening, the Wrangler All-Terrain Adventure with Kevlar has exclusive Durawall-reinforced sidewalls. This isn't just for a spontaneous one-time journey. Durawall, Kevlar, 60,000-mile tread life limited warranty** – 20 percent longer compared to other Wrangler tires.***
Great tires such as the new Goodyear Wrangler All-Terrain Adventure with Kevlar help open the gateway to epic adventures.
