The Goodride SA 37 summer passenger car tire is a representative of a new generation of tire products from Chinese manufacturers. This time, the novelty is intended for powerful sports cars of different classes, as evidenced by their belonging to the High-Performance category. In addition to excellent performance characteristics, it is favorably distinguished by an extremely attractive cost for Chinese products.
Features of the tread pattern
Despite the focus, first of all, on high-speed cars, Chinese tire manufacturers preferred to equip this model with a classic tread pattern with the asymmetrical non-directional arrangement of elements. They are all grouped into five longitudinal ribs. Combined with the minimum block spacing in the same row, this arrangement provides the tire with excellent road-holding at any speed, as well as excellent fuel efficiency through reduced rolling resistance.
Wide central rib
The Goodride SA 37 tire owes much of its excellent directional stability to the central longitudinal rib, or rather its high resistance to dynamic deformation, provided by its massive dimensions and the absence of tears.
In addition, the presence of such a structurally rigid element in the central part of the tread made it possible to significantly reduce the reaction time of the tire to steering turns, which brought sporty features to the handling characteristics.
Improved wet grip
Another undoubted advantage of this model is the improved grip on wet roads. Such results were achieved due to some features of the tread pattern and rubber compound.
The drainage system of the tire is mainly represented by four longitudinal grooves, which, during the movement, serve as a kind of storage for water, which is removed from the contact patch. Thanks to its large volume, the tire exhibits excellent aquaplaning resistance.
In addition, a lot of grip on the wet road is provided by the rubber compound. It was created using the Silica Tech technology, which consists not only in the increased content of silicon-containing components but also in some technological features of its preparation, which ensure their uniform distribution.
Main features of the Goodride SA 37 tire
- excellent directional stability and sporty handling, thanks to the wide central rib;
- rubber compound created using Silica Tech technology, provides the tire with increased grip on wet roads;
- excellent resistance to aquaplaning, due to four longitudinal drainage grooves;
- Superior stability when making sharp maneuvers is provided by reinforced shoulder areas.
European-style Goodride tires are also not suitable for driving on ice and snow, so if anyone still wants to save on tires, the results speak for themselves. The cheapest tires were also the least efficient, and this is no coincidence.
Automotive tires Goodride SA 37 offer increased safety and comfort of movement. Optimized energy efficiency significantly reduces fuel consumption. This model of Goodride rubber offers an optimal balance of traction and braking performance, both when driving on dry asphalt and when driving on wet roads.

A distinctive feature of the model can be called the presence of small cuts on the tread, which increases traction. The working surface of the tread pattern is formed by asymmetric structural blocks separated by zig-zag channels. This design provides excellent grip, along with short braking distances on slippery icy roads and snowy asphalt.
The staggered arrangement of the structural blocks of the tread helps to significantly reduce the noise of the wheels, which positively affects the ride comfort in adverse winter weather conditions.
Load Index “98” means that the maximum load on each Goodride SA 37 tire is 1600 miles. Thus, the maximum load of the car when installing four identical wheels is 6200 lb. Important warning, overloading can be dangerous by the destruction of the wheel while driving.
The speed index "H" of a tire means the maximum speed at which a vehicle can be driven on a given tire. Goodride SA 37 tire allows speeds up to 265 mph. We do not recommend that you develop a speed higher than the permissible speed, this is fraught with an explosion of the wheel.
After "re-shoes" it is advisable to get used to new tires. Goodride specialists recommend running summer tires by the "Rules for the operation of automobile tires":
- no sudden braking and acceleration;
- corner entry should be smooth;
- maximum accuracy on a wet, dusty or snowy road;
