Goodyear Eagle Sport A/S VSBTL Radial - 195/65R15 91V

As one of the most trusted names in the tire industry, Goodyear Tires boasts an enduring legacy of success and a reputation for quality tires and satisfied drivers. Radial tire construction often exhibits a characteristic known as sidewall undulations, which is a common feature. These indentations are more evident in tire sizes with higher aspect ratios and/or higher inflation pressures.

In a radial tire, the body ply cords run straight across the tire from bead to bead. The joining of the ply material creates a narrow overlap of ply cords in the radial direction at each junction. These overlapped ply cords slightly restrict the natural expansion of the sidewall when inflated, resulting in an indentation. Since the belt plies reinforce the tread, only the sidewalls are indented.

Sidewall indentations are a cosmetic characteristic and do not affect the tire's performance. However, if bulges, rather than indentations, appear on the sidewall or if there is any question concerning the sidewall appearance, the tire should be examined by a tire service professional.
