Review on Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice Arctic 195/60 R15 88T winter by Wiktor Krzysztof Kor ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

I liked the rubber, after running it became noticeably quieter. Spike loss: front -2 and -4, back everything is in place. True, I dashed off on rubber for only 3000 km (the second car), the coating is mainly asphalt, city, slush. In the snowy porridge, it was somehow impossible to check. On a snow-covered track, it holds confidently. Unlike Nordman 4, it does not float at temperatures > +10. Lots of hard starts. My wife annealed a couple of times when starting uphill (I even got sick of pity for the rubber at that moment, perhaps from the smell of the clutch). In general, very worthy, I think with more careful driving I would not lose a single spike. Summing up the above, I will express my point of view that this rubber is for rather harsh conditions and drivers who do not tolerate compromises

Pros
  • all the same, it rolled on and calmed down, strong spikes, does not float at high temperatures, an interesting recognizable tread pattern and spikes :)
Cons
  • the first 1000 km is very, well, very noisy, not cheap
