The product is usable, I expected a bit more.

Didn't live up to expectations. Before that, I went to the alpine Good Year Ultra Grip 7 made in Germany - the sensations on it are completely different, for the city of St. Petersburg - it was much better suited. This GOODYEAR Ultra Grip Ice 2 - made in Poland - and not for St. Petersburg with its frequent temperature changes from + to - and back .
I can not say that this tire is a good choice price - performance. I can not recommend to buy and definitely would not take a second time. Total - you can drive - but carefully)

Pros

It’s normal for roads when the minus goes beyond 8 degrees and there is no ice roll - either a clean road or not deep snow on the road . quieter than studded, but Ultra Grip 7 was quieter, this one has a rumble at speeds over 60 . Relatively not high price for size 15/205/65. Holds the road well - if the brushed asphalt .

Cons

Wet ice at a temperature of about 0 -3 - bad adhesion to the road, rolled ice at traffic lights is also poor adhesion to the surface. On such roads, the car can easily skid or even turn around and take out into the oncoming lane if driving is not accurate. It feels like in positive weather - wear increases and roll appears than when temperatures are below zero. The tire looks like 2-3 seasons in terms of wear . Compared to the alpine Ultra Grip 7- average consumption has increased by 0.5 liters . with summer about 1 liter .
