The Assurance WeatherReady2 is Goodyear's Grand Touring All-Season tire developed for drivers of compact cars, passenger sedans, and crossover SUVs looking for the smooth and quiet ride of a premium touring tire combined with the year-round confidence that comes from driving a vehicle equipped with all-weather tires, having met industry severe snow service requirements and qualifying for the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol.
Assurance WeatherReady2 tires feature a soybean oil derived compound molded into a directional tread pattern designed to maintain traction in all weather conditions. In addition, taking advantage of small, regularvariations intread blocksize, the Assurance WeatherReady 2 uses multi-pitch sequencing to dissipate road sounds and comfort inserts in the sidewall to smooth out uneven road surfaces for a comfortable ride. Goodyear's AquaTred technology comes alive in heavy rain, with V-shaped grooves expelling water and slush, enhancing both wet weather handling and wintertime snow traction. The soybean oil compound ensures the tire remains grippy and flexible when the temperature drops.
The Assurance WeatherReady2's internals make use of two layers of polyester plies surrounded by twin steel belts for the right blend of strength, rigidity and straight-line tracking. A polyamide cap completes the package, providing additional stability at highway speeds.
Note: While non-winter tires featuring the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol may provide additional longitudinal snow traction beyond what all-season (M+S) tires not bearing the symbol can deliver, they do not match the capability of a true winter tire in all adverse weather conditions.
El neumático Assurance WeatherReady2 de Goodyear pertenece a la categoría: Gran Turismo Para Toda Estación y fue desarrollado para conductores de autos compactos, sedanes de pasajeros, utiliautos (crossovers) y vehículos utilitarios deportivos (SUV, por sus siglas en inglés). El Assurance WeatherReady2 proporciona una andar tranquilo y parejo, como el ofrecido por neumáticos de turismo premium, tambié combina la confianza de conducir durante las cuatro estaciones del año, que ofrecen los neumáticos para todo tipo de clima, además cumple con los requisitos de la industria en cuanto a condiciones de nieve severa y posee el símbolo “tres picos montaña/copo de nieve”, 3PMSF (three-peak mountain snowflake symbol, 3PMSF).
El compuesto de caucho del Assurance WeatherReady2 es derivado de un aceite de soja y ha sido moldeado en una huella con patrón direccional, para mantener tracción en todo tipo de clima. Además, aprovechando las variaciones pequeñas y regulares del tamaño de los bloques de la huella, el Assurance WeatherReady2, utiliza una secuenciación de tonos múltiples para disipar los ruidos de la carretera, mientras que refuerzos de confort en los flancos o paredes suavizan las irregularidades de las superficies de la carreta, proporcionando una conducción cómoda. La tecnología AquaTred de Goodyear muestra su efectividad durante lluvia intensa, cuando ranuras en forma de la letra V expulsan el agua y aguanieve, mejorando tanto la maniobrabilidad sobre superficies mojadas, como la tracción sobre superficies con nieve durante el invierno. El compuesto de caucho con aceite de soja asegura que el neumático se mantenga flexible y con tracción cuando la temperatura baja.
La estructura interna utiliza dos capas de poliéster rodeadas de correas gemelas de acero para obtener la combinación correcta de fortaleza, rigidez y tracción en línea recta. Una capa de poliamida completa el paquete, proporcionando estabilidad adicional a velocidades alcanzadas en los autopistas.
Nota: Mientras que los neumáticos que no son para uso exclusivo de invierno, pero cuentan con el símbolo tres picos montaña/copo de nieve, 3PMSF (three-peak mountain snowflake, 3PMSF) podrían proporcionan mayor tracción longitudinal en nieve, que la ofrecida por neumáticos para toda estación (M+S) sin el símbolo 3PMSF; ninguno iguala la capacidad de un neumático para uso exclusivo en el invierno, en climas con condiciones adversas.

Premium Touring Tires: Elevating the Journey – 2025 Test 7 - With Winter Update(30:19)
New tires, customer favorites, and former test winners are among the group for 2025’s Test 7, which also sees some manufacturers with multiple tires. Both Bridgestone and Goodyear have two tires in this group, while Continental, Michelin, and Yokohama each have a horse in this race. Who comes out on top and what category will it represent, Standard Touring or Grand Touring All-Season? In the end where will these tires stack up in our ever-growing combined results of tested touring tires? Watch now to find out!
Feedback consistently shows the Hankook Kinergy GT delivers strong dry traction (scores 8-10) with responsive handling, meeting expectations for a Grand Touring All-Season tire. However, comfort receives mixed feedback, with some noting excessive road noise and harshness. Treadwear scores (often 0-5) raise concerns about longevity, a notable drawback for an all-season tire. Winter traction shows inconsistency, particularly on ice and in deep snow, with scores ranging widely (0-8). Wet traction is generally adequate (scores 5-8), though some report reduced hydroplaning resistance. While dry performance shines, buyers prioritizing comfort or winter capability may find limitations.

...Wet and dry traction have been very good. Never experienced any hydroplaning.
I don't understand all of the poor reviews for this tire. They are OE on my 2023 Trailblazer and I haven't experienced any problems. After 28000 miles they show very little tread wear and I have no doubt they'll last another 28000 miles easy. They ride very smooth, but could be a little quieter. Wet and dry traction have been very good. Never experienced any hydroplaning.

...Dry and wet conditions traction is pretty good...
These tires were the OEM on my 2024 Chevrolet Malibu LT.
Pros- The ride is pretty good, Dry and wet conditions traction is pretty good. Steering response.
Cons- Moderately noisy most of the time, and very noisy on certain surfaces. Terrible performance on ice or hard packed snow. Mpg seems to drop off excessively in colder sub zero temperatures. Tread depth is not as deep brand new. Seem to be wearing quickly. 13k miles and approx 2/32" already worn. (8.5/32" new, so only 6.5/32" available to wear).
Bottom line- I would not install these again unless they were really really cheap.

...Dry traction is adequate and cornering stability is not bad...
Nice comfortable ride and low road noise. But that's where the positives end. Treacherous on wet roads or any precipitation. Dry traction is adequate and cornering stability is not bad. I understand why Tesla would want an internal foam-lined tire to offset the inherent road noise in the cabin of the pre-2024 Model 3. But the trade off in this case was not worth it by any means. I would stay away from this tire if you're purchasing replacements. Even after only 5K on these I will likely replace with something safer.

Wet traction scores show concerning inconsistency, with many ratings between 0-6. Customers report a slippery feel, tendency to hydroplane, and mediocre wet performance for this all-season tire, indicating significant room for improvement.

...Wet traction is horrible and don't even get me started with snow...
These came with my Camry and OMG why Toyota, just why? These are by far the worst tires I have ever driven on. When I got my Camry I thought it was a little rough. Bumps and potholes seemed to be alot more harsh then I ever thought a Camry should be. I even thought it might have been a suspension issue, it wasnt. It was the tires. The people who say they are quiet must be confusing tire noise for engine noise. These are insanely loud. Wet traction is horrible and don't even get me started with snow. If somebody told me these were some cheap no name Chinese knock offs, I would believe them. Shame on Toyota for ever using these as stock on any vehicle. Get the Continental TrueContact Tour 54, you'll thank me for it.

Winter traction ratings show concerning scores, with many 0-5s for ice and deep snow. Customers report slippery conditions, getting stuck, and lack of winter traction despite its all-season intent.

...Now this winter has been a nightmare even with my cautious driving. We haven't even gotten that deep of snow yet and even in just an inch or two, the traction control light comes on frequently and I almost didn't make it up a very slight hill...
These came with the vehicle. The car was my grandmother's in Florida and she barely drove it, gifted it to me when she decided to go down to 1 car. I moved it up to Massachusetts where I didn't notice really any problems with it over the summer and fall, but I am a super cautious driver and always drive slow in the rain as I'm used to older used cars. Now this winter has been a nightmare even with my cautious driving. We haven't even gotten that deep of snow yet and even in just an inch or two, the traction control light comes on frequently and I almost didn't make it up a very slight hill. I'm getting them replaced immediately before we get some bigger snowstorms. The tread is also under 2/32 already. The roads up here are bad, but I haven't even hit 40,000 miles. Tires have been rotated frequently enough, I think it's just what other reviewers are saying, these do not last as they're supposed to. I'm curious to what I'll notice with my new tires (Pirelli Scorpions) in the dry and wet conditions as they're rated so much higher. Other reviewers spoke unfavorably but I'm not too experienced or well-versed in the world of cars, so I probably didn't notice and I'm looking forward to the improvement. Would not recommend these, especially if you drive in any amount of snow.

Treadwear ratings reveal significant dissatisfaction, with many scores between 0-5 citing premature wear, rapid tread loss, and needing replacement early. While some rate 7-10, frequent low scores highlight poor longevity for a Grand Touring tire, with customers disappointed in mileage and excessive wear.

...I don't beat up the tires when I drive, stay on top of inflations, rotated at 5,000 and 10,000 miles...and replaced them at 15,000 miles due to treadwear. Worst treadwear I've ever had in 40+ years and over a million miles driven...
