One of the key features of the Goodyear UltraGrip winter tire is that it was specifically developed for full-size SUVs and crossovers. In this case, not only their technical characteristics were taken into account, but also the specific road conditions of operation of most such vehicles, which rarely leave the asphalt.
Excellent traction throughout the life cycle
The high efficiency of this model is largely due to the fact that its design uses both new technologies and technical solutions that have proven themselves in the best possible way on previously released tires. One of them is several thousand 3D-BIS lamellas. Their main advantage is that, in addition to forming numerous traction edges, they provide increased block stiffness, which improves handling on asphalt.
Good off-road performance
Despite the fact that the manufacturer recommends using this model primarily on paved roads, it shows confident behavior beyond their limits. Quite good off-road performance is ensured by the open design of the shoulder areas, which contain a multitude of separate blocks. The large distance between them allows the tread to be effectively cleaned of soil particles that get into it. At the same time, the traction edges formed by the blocks provide high traction.
Key features of Goodyear UltraGrip
- numerous 3D-BIS lamellas improve traction on ice and snow;
- massive blocks in the shoulder areas provide confident behavior off-road, as well as traction characteristics when accelerating;
- increased resistance to aquaplaning and slushplaning due to the large number and optimized location of drainage grooves.
