Goodyear will be an original equipment supplier for the 2018 Jeep Wrangler. Unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the Jeep JL will be fitted with Goodyear’s Wrangler AT Adventure with Kevlar in sizes 255/70R18 and 245/75R17. These will be optional tires for the Sport, Sport S and Sahara models.
Press release by Goodyear:
AKRON, Ohio, Dec. 5, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The 2018 Jeep Wrangler – unveiled Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show – will be fitted with two sizes of Goodyear's Wrangler AT Adventure with Kevlar.
The Wrangler AT Adventure with Kevlar is Goodyear's best tire for versatility on and off road. The tire features DuPont™ Kevlar® for added strength, providing superior traction through rain and snow.
Also made with Durawall™ Technology, which prevents cuts in the sidewall, the Adventure matches the toughness of the Jeep Wrangler. Goodyear and Jeep have an extensive history together, with Goodyear first producing tires for Jeep in 1941 for the Willys Quad prototype. In addition to the Wrangler, Goodyear also supplies the Jeep Grand Cherokee with multiple tire sizes.
"We are proud to build on our long-term relationship with Jeep and supply tires for the much-anticipated, new Jeep Wrangler," said Johann Finkelmeier, Goodyear's vice president of North America Original Equipment. "Working closely with automobile manufacturers to deliver innovative products for leading vehicles like this is a key component of Goodyear's strategy."
