The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company was founded in 1898 by Frank Seiberling. With just thirteen employees, Goodyear began producing bicycle and carriage tires in November of 1898. Since then Goodyear has earned the well-deserved title of the world’s largest tire company and adopted the slogan, “More people ride on Goodyear tires than on any other kind.” In 1926, Goodyear would later become the world’s largest rubber company, based on sales. Today, Goodyear is one of the world’s largest tire companies, operating 60 plants in 26 countries. Goodyear is also the number one tire maker in North America and Latin America. Goodyear is the second largest tire maker in Europe.
Many recognize Goodyear by its trademark symbol, the Wingfoot. How did they get that symbol? Frank Seiberling had a statue of the famous god of mythology, known as Mercury or Hermes and he felt Mercury embodied many of the same characteristics that Goodyear products were known for. In 1900, Goodyear decided to use the winged foot of Mercury 
as their trademark. Overall Goodyear’s vision is to, “Become a market-focused tire company providing superior products and services to end-users and to our channel partners, leading to superior returns for our shareholders.” For over a century, Goodyear’s corporate values have been centered on the phrase, “Protect Our Good Name.” Today this philosophy is brought to life through developing a culture in which a committed and competitive team of associates can excel.
One of Goodyear’s most popular tires is the Assurance Triple Tread. The Assurance Triple Tread has three unique tread zones for all weather conditions - rain, ice, or snow. The Water Zone with deeply carved Aquachannel grooves helps propel water off the tread and away from the tire. The tire’s Ice Zone, with an interlocking tread pattern, enhances gripping power on icy or slick roads. The outer Dry Zone, with tread reinforcement, offers confident maneuvering on dry pavement. The Assurance Triple Tread comes with an 80,000 Mile Tread Life Limited Warranty and a 30-day no-obligation trial period. The Assurance Triple Tread is also 
backed by the Driver Assurance Package, which includes a roadside assistance program, nationwide warranty service, and online D.O.T. registration.
Another popular Goodyear tire is the Wrangler SilentArmor. The Wrangler SilentArmor is Goodyear’s premium on-/off-road, all-terrain light truck tire. The Wrangler SilentArmor tire features an added layer made with DuPont Kevlar that helps provide rugged toughness and helps soak up road noise for a smooth, quiet ride. The tire also features Durawall technology, traction ridges, and an open tread pattern. The Durawall technology offers toughness and helps resist cuts and punctures in the sidewall area. The traction edges provide off-road traction in wet, muddy conditions and the open tread pattern enhances off-road traction. The Wrangler SilentArmor comes with a 50,000 mile Tread Life Limited Warranty and a 30-day no-obligation trial period. Like many Goodyear tires, this tire is also backed by the Wrangler Utility Package, which includes a roadside assistance program, nationwide warranty service, and online product registration.
