Tyre reviews Goodyear Ultragrip Ice WRT. Page 1 34

A fair assessment can only be given after a year of use. So far, after two months on both loose snow and hard-packed snow they behave predictably well. On clean asphalt it is sufficiently quiet compared to the studded Yokohama. The price is very pleasing, price/performance at its best. I am not a racing driver, but for moderate driving, which is how I drive during the winter, it is comfortable enough.

Don't buy this tire. A penny saved is a penny earned. The asphalt is great, and the snow is okay, but on the slush, it's becoming a concern. As for ice, I'm not even going there - it doesn't stop even at low speeds. I previously had a winter tire and it was more maneuverable than this one. I drove two winters on it and thought I'd get a new one. Big mistake.

For this price, these tyres are very good, ice traction is a problem, but it's asking too much to expect them to hold their line on ice.

I drive quite smoothly with the car's performance, no issues with the tires. However, when I replaced the winter tires with a summer set, I found a small bulge on one of the tires while I was at a local service center. I brought the tire to the store and they replaced it without any questions.

I've been running the 265/65R17 on my car for 5.5 years (130 thousand km) and the tread life is around 50%. I have to say, I was surprised by the durability of this tire, especially considering it's a US-made product.

I’m probably the only owner of these tires who’s not satisfied with them. I’ve been using these tires for over 1500 km since November 2015, and I’ve encountered snow, ice, and slush with them. In the snow, there are no complaints – the tires are very grippy. In the ice, the ABS system is constantly activated, even in situations where the car didn’t react to such weather conditions in the past. It’s frustrating! On dry roads,

Swapped cars to a sedan, and that's when I started thinking about new tires. Previously, I drove a Goudie Ice 1, it's a good brand, and their tires are always top-notch. This time, I decided to stick with them - I was weighing the options between studded and studless tires, and ultimately went with the studless ones I'm familiar with. The tread pattern is well thought out, it collects snow well and throws it out from under the wheels

The review of this tire largely depends on the type chosen, and in my case, I previously only used studded tires, which are, of course, quite noisy, and when compared to these tires, I didn't notice any significant difference in our southern Russian climate. The engineers at Goodyear certainly did a great job with this model, and I couldn't even find any drawbacks.

Despite it being winter tires, the car doesn't lose dynamics compared to summer tires, is not noisy, feels confident on slush, and it's a pleasure to drive in winter on these tires. The tread of these tires is excellent, it's perfect to start from a traffic light - it doesn't lock up, confidently holds the road.

Great lug. High wear and traction on all road types. Would recommend, they are worth the money.
