The Eagle Exhilarate is Goodyear's Ultra High Performance All-Season tire developed for drivers of modern muscle cars, sports sedans and sporty coupes looking for tires that deliver the high-speed traction and handling they want in dry conditions combined with secure grip in inclement weather, including rain and light snow.
The Eagle Exhilarate molds an all-season compound into an asymmetric, five-rib tread pattern. Goodyear's ActiveGrip Technology ensures even pressure distribution in the footprint, and ActiveBraking Technology uses an innovative tread block design to increase contact with the road during hard braking, resulting in enhanced handling and braking traction in dry and wet conditions. The high-silica tread compound improves wet traction, and wide lateral notches and four circumferential grooves evacuate water from the footprint to aid hydroplaning resistance. Sipes and grooves in the tread pattern help provide grip in slippery conditions, including on ice and in light snow.
The internal construction of the Eagle Exhilarate consists of a two-ply polyester cord casing and lightweight, high tensile strength steel belt wire for strong, light construction, while two polyamide reinforcement plies increase high-speed capability.
El neumático Eagle Exhilarate de Goodyear pertenece a la categoría: Ultra Alto Rendimiento Para Toda Estación y fue desarrollado para conductores de autos musculosos modernos, sedanes y cupé deportivos, que buscan neumáticos que proporcionen tracción a velocidades elevadas y maniobrabilidad en condiciones secas, a la vez, de un agarre seguro en climas inclementes, incluyendo lluvia y superficies con poca nieve.
El Eagle Exhilarate moldea un compuesto de caucho para toda estación en una banda de rodamiento con patrón asimétrico con cinco segmentos. La tecnología ActiveGrip de Goodyear asegura una distribución de presión pareja en la huella, mientras que, la tecnología ActiveBraking utiliza un diseño de bloque o taco innovador, para aumentar el contacto con la carretera durante el frenado, resultando en mejor maniobrabilidad y tracción al frenar en condiciones secas o mojadas. El compuesto de caucho con una concentración alta de sílice, mejora la tracción sobre superficies mojadas, ranuras laterales anchas y cuatro canales circunferenciales evacuan el agua del área de contacto, para mejorar la resistencia al deslizamiento sobre agua. Pequeñas ranuras sobre la superficie de los bloques proporcionan agarre en condiciones resbalosas, incluyendo superficies con hielo y poca nieve.
La construcción interna del Eagle Exhilarate consiste de dos capas con cordón de poliéster, una correa con alambre de acero liviana y resistente a tensiones fuertes, lo que permite una estructura liviana. Dos capas de refuerzo de poliamida aumentan la capacidad para rodar a velocidades elevadas.

The Eagle Exhilarate has been a benchmark performer since it launched in 2019. We test it against the newest and best to see if it still has what it takes.
Drivers consistently rate the Cooper Cobra Radial G/T as a top choice for classic vehicles, with standout scores in comfort (8-10) for its smooth, quiet ride that enhances the vintage driving experience. Dry traction earns near-perfect praise (9-10), delivering confident grip and responsive handling that owners say revitalizes their car's performance. Wet traction scores (7-10) reflect solid capability, though some note limited use in rain aligns with typical classic-tire habits. Treadwear receives positive feedback, with many highlighting satisfactory longevity for occasional use, though tread aging-not wear-often determines replacement timing. Owners frequently emphasize satisfaction with its period-correct style and modern performance balance.

...These Coopers are a step up in that department and are great all around.
I've run BFG Radial TAs forever, but they lacked performance in the wet. These Coopers are a step up in that department and are great all around.

...Wet traction is well implemented, and I never felt like the vehicle needed more grip for the circumstances...
Classic style with modern performance.
The ride seems athletic, yet well refined. Even when pushing this tire to its limits, the traction break away is smooth, and predictable. Wet traction is well implemented, and I never felt like the vehicle needed more grip for the circumstances. This tire feels comfortable with a low tire hum that fades into the background, and the hum never seemed intrusive. It absorbs bumps well, and does not loose composure when jostled like some other tires in the category.

...Great dry traction, low noise level, and very comfortable ride...
These are the third set of GT's for my 00 Dakota Sport 2wd. I've been very pleased with these tires over the years and will continue to purchase them as long as Cooper keeps making them. Great dry traction, low noise level, and very comfortable ride. As for wet traction, pretty good considering that Dakota's are light in the back anyway and at times I do lose traction from a dead stop. Can't say much for snow or ice as I live in Dallas and we don't get much of that stuff here. I like the aggressive look of the tires as well, especially with the new font. Cooper Tires have been around a long time and has a proven track record of well-made tires that can go the distance. I just ordered my 4th set for this truck. Keep up the good work Cooper, you never disappoint.

1/2 t. chevrolet truck loaded for handyman jobs.... fairly heavy, lots of combination driving, did super on dry roads handles well etc , will hydroplane some in heavy rain, light rains ok, not even made for snowy climates, looks really nice on any show trucks etc, smooth riding and quiet will not disappoint my only disappointment was only 20,000 miles max on my loaded truck, probably a softer compound than my previous B F 's which went around 30k , but was a bit more costly..... can go too wrong with either set

Most customers rate treadwear highly, with scores of 9-10 dominating. Classic vehicle owners often note the tires age out before significant wear occurs, reflecting strong tread life for road-focused use. A few 7-8 scores suggest minor variability, but overall satisfaction is excellent.

Great alternative to the BFG Radial T/A at a much cheaper price. These Coopers have a higher speed rating as well as a higher tread life vs. the T/A Radials.

If you drive a performance-focused or sporty car, you want tires to match its personality. If you drive it year-round and winter tires aren’t an option, then Ultra High Performance All-Season tires are a great choice.
We tested the Eagle Exhilarate (Goodyear says it’s a match for the best in the category) and its competitors to see if their claims are on par.
