Shingle with improved tear strength

A shingle coating composition comprising:

• an asphalt base composition comprising:
• non-oxidized or partially oxidized asphalt;
• at least one polymer additive;
• from 5 wt. % to less than 12 wt. % ground tire rubber based on a total weight of the shingle coating composition;
• and
• wax, in an amount of up to about 6 wt. % based on a total weight of the shingle coating composition;
• and
• greater than or equal to about 5 wt. % of a filler having a Mohs hardness of greater than about 3, based on a total weight of the shingle coating composition,
• wherein the shingle coating composition exhibits a penetration value at 25° C. of at least about 15 dmm and a ring and ball softening point of from about 190° F. to about 320° F.
