Tyre reviews Goodyear UltraGrip Ice 2 738

Here is the translation:

Hello everyone,

My choice of tires was based on similar reviews online, as well as comparisons of tire tests by auto experts.

I have over 15 years of driving experience and have always used non-studded tires on my personal vehicle. My previous tire set on my vehicle was Bridgestone Blizzak WS-60, and I believe that winter tires should only be directional. Unfortunately, such a model was not available from Bridgestone.

My search criteria were:

It's probably the 5th set of tires I’ve had (I've had Continental, Michelin, Dunlop, and others), but the UltraGrip Ice 2 is the best I’ve had so far. I put them on in late October 2015, but it turned out to be too early since within a week the temperature dropped to -8°C, but even then, the tires didn’t slip at all, and behaved almost as well as my summer tires - and that

Adding to my previous review, after two seasons of use (with the second season not yet over). The tyres are 185/65/R15. The sidewall is extremely soft, no cracks, no cuts, and I never drove into any deep potholes or craters. The balance after the second season of use was 0-0-15-20 g, due to our roads and the disc. Cornering stability on snow, on plowed and unplowed snow, and cleared

Bought today a set of 205/55/16. It’s hard to talk about any winter tires after summer ones, but I will share my subjective impression of the first day on absolutely new tires in Moscow:

In one day I managed to drive on a road with a depth of 5-7 cm, on a road with ice and frost on asphalt, on fresh ice, on wet snow on a highway, in a yard, on thick ice on asphalt in

Considering the recent climate changes, I prefer "winter shoes", although I've driven many a winter on studded tires. These tires, in general, leave a pleasant impression. Of course, the best conditions for use are urban, and I spend 90% of my driving time in the city. I've been using this model of tires for not the first year, and the only thing is that, the last time around, the same tires were on a Toyota Camry. On the Toyota,

Good tyre and good price. But the managers at Mosshina are pushing old two-year-old tyres at the price of new ones...and after you place an order, they will just shrug their shoulders...really unscrupulous.

Right away, I'd like to say that I gave 5 stars to the parameters I was able to test. Aquaplaning and driving on a wet road are probably not the best options for these "arctic" tires, so I gave them 1. However, I think they are perfectly fine for driving in any temperature and on any surface - they just may not hold up in extreme situations due to weather conditions. These tires are suitable either for snow or for a good asphalt. At

I’m from Moscow and I mostly drive around Moscow and the nearby Moscow Region. That means I drive almost exclusively on asphalt during the winter, occasionally on snow and slush, and very rarely on ice. This means I have no use for studs, except maybe for beginners as a precaution. Three years ago I bought this tire, and I’m just in a pleasant shock! It's like driving in a different world! For a city with well-functioning road maintenance services like Moscow, this tire is

Quite decent tyres for their price. Predictable on ice, but at small speeds. Didn't get stuck in loose snow, did well on compaction and asphalt. Can't judge wear yet, 2 months in city cycle, driving style - calm.

I used this tire from October to April. Approximately, 15000 km. After re-treading, I immediately noticed that they were extremely quiet. However, the summer ones were much noisier, which is the opposite of what usually happens, even with good year tires. Overall, I am very satisfied with these tires. I drove on them through snow, ice, and slush. Predictable handling. The only thing I noticed is that they would last for 3 seasons, given that
