Goodyear Ultragrip Arctic 2 SUV – the non-studded version of the popular winter tire, which is installed on crossovers and SUVs. It is characterized by resistance to skidding, quick self-cleaning, and ease of handling on winter roads.
The model, like the studded version, is equipped with a directional symmetric tread, which is formed by a large number of blocks of various shapes. In combination with a huge number of wave-like lamellas, they form engagement edges. The latter effectively fix the tire on a slippery surface, and their multidirectional arrangement prevents lateral skidding. Diagonally directed drainage channels, opening in the "shoulder" zone, are capable of handling large volumes of water and slush, maintaining reliable traction and adhesion properties.
Special attention is deserved by the compound, which contains a number of polymers, including silica, which increases the strength of fixation on a slippery surface. This is largely achieved by maintaining the elasticity of the rubber mixture at subzero temperatures.
