Review on Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice 2 205/50 R17 93T winter by Stanislaw Golkowski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I was surprised by the quality for this price.

Since 2022, in the winter, I have always ridden on spikes. In Hong Kong, as a rule. Rarely do I travel to the nearest suburbs. I don’t drive much, within the traffic rules))))) But this winter I decided to try a newfangled invention - friction auto tires. Tires need to be upgraded anyway. The spiked Bridgestone 7000 plowed for almost 8 years and clearly needed rest due to the length of service))))) First I was looking for spikes out of habit. I always take tires of the current year of manufacture (who knows how our "businessmen" store and transport them). But then he asked around at work who rides what - the vast majority are Velcro. In general, I decided to try Initially I wanted to take a novelty from Yokohama - IG60. Fresh guarded for 3 months - no. Everyone suggested the beginning of 2022 (!) Years. Then I looked at the tests of friction clutches for the last 3-4 years and decided to look at the "prize" Pirelli Ice Zero FR (made in Hong Kong) and the UltaGrip Ice 2 itself. Pirelli apparently stamped a lot and they all sold last year. But Goodyear was lucky - a month ago I bought APRIL 2022. Made in Poland. Changed yesterday. The silence in the cabin is certainly impressive. The temperature in Hong Kong these days is close to zero. But there is no snow or ice. Nevertheless: there are no complaints about driving at reasonable speeds and maneuvers - everything is predictable. Let's wait for the real winter. Judging by the reviews - there should be no problems.

Pros
  • Silence in the cabin Controllability tenacious protector
Cons
  • You have to get used to braking. It is different. Be careful with sharp maneuvers

Really very soft sidewalls, perhaps there is an increased risk of damage to them. But not found in my case.
