Tyre reviews Gislaved Ultracontrol. Page 4 114

Ran the second season last year, and now there is almost no wear. Driving on wet asphalt is comfortable, it cuts water well. Balancing was normal, but the master somehow fussed. In the end, everything is fine.

Balanced normally, satisfied

The tires arrived in order. November 2025. Everything is excellent.

Good value for money.

My Citroen finally got new Gislaved tires - I've been wanting to change them for a long time. I chose them for a long time, since the car is for work and I wanted a balance between comfort and reliability. I asked my colleagues, and many advised me to pay attention to TerraControl. They said that for my tasks this is the optimal solution.

Well, the first impressions are that the car has become softer, bumps from potholes are almost not felt. In the city, the handling is clear, even with sharp maneuvers. On the highway at a speed of 120, it confidently keeps the road, the steering wheel does not "wander". However, on dirt roads, they also pleasantly surprised me - they hold well, although they are not off-road. As for noise - average, not loud, but not completely quiet either. So, I'm satisfied.

Normal summer tires. Worth their money. The tread is dense, durable. Mileage of about 10,000 but the tires are like new

I was choosing between several models, but stopped at Ultracontrol - I wanted a harder and more stable tire for my driving style. The car often goes on the highway, and I wanted confidence when overtaking.

In the city, the wheels behave predictably: they respond quickly to the steering wheel, there is no skidding even during sharp maneuvers. On the highway up to 140 km/h, they go smoothly, in the rain, water leaves from under the wheels so that you don't even feel aquaplaning. However, on very bad roads, you can feel their stiffness - but this is rather the price for excellent handling.

Once I got into a strong downpour, I thought I would have to slow down, but the tires held so well that I calmly drove 90 without feeling any risk. After 5,500 kilometers, the wear is minimal, the balancing holds, there are no vibrations.

Okay, not driven in heavy rain
No aquaplaning
Brake well

Defect

Installed before a trip to Crimea. Each tire required weights! The first impressions were good. At a speed of 120 km/h, I started feeling the wheel vibration. We drove over 1300 km. Upon arrival home, I rebalanced the wheels and was completely disappointed with the quality. Three wheels had radial runout, and the fourth had lateral runout as well. The tire fitter struggled for over an hour and a half, turning and twisting these tires. He somehow managed to balance them. When driving on the highway, the tires are soft and quiet, but the car floats. I do not recommend buying! My old twelve-year-old Michelin was better.
