The 2009 Ford Flex is
one of the most anticipated new vehicles in years, and it arrives in dealer
showrooms this summer riding on Goodyear tires.
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (NYSE: GT) has been chosen to supply
the standard tire fitment for the 2009 Ford Flex, providing the popular
Assurance ComforTred tires in size P235/60R18. It is a premium passenger
tire made with a special cushion layer to help provide a smooth,
comfortable and quiet ride.
With seating for up to seven, a refrigerated console, multi-panel Vista
roof, grooved door panels, rearview camera, all-wheel drive and many other
innovative features, the 2009 Ford Flex is expected to become available
this summer.
Goodyear tires are original equipment on many vehicles from Acura,
Audi, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Dodge, Ford, GMC, Hummer, Infiniti, Isuzu, Jeep,
Land Rover, Lexus, Mazda, Mercury, Nissan and Toyota. Traditionally, more
new vehicles in North America are equipped with Goodyear tires than any
other brand.
