Review on Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice Arctic 195/60 R15 88T winter by Adam Kowalski ᠌

I decided to write this review, because I myself had a lot of questions when choosing rubber. People write completely different things about the same rubber . This Goodyear has been eyeing this for quite a long time. For me, the main thing was confidence while driving, versatility, that is, decent behavior on any surface. Given the unanimous good patency of this instance, I was afraid for the behavior on dry pavement and good speeds, as it turned out in vain. I am definitely satisfied with the rubber (see advantages), although not without flaws. So, a Volvo s60 car, front-wheel drive, 170 hp. Tires 225/45 R17. After reviewing the reviews, I came to the conclusion that Polish rubber is one thing, German rubber is another. When buying, I advise you to pay attention. Negative reviews, as I understand it, are mainly about Polish rubber. In addition, not all rubber sellers are conscientious; there may initially be defective copies. In tire shops, the guys are funny, at a temperature of +20 they will pump your wheels up to 2.2 atm, they left at -20, respectively, in cylinders it’s no longer 2.2, but at best 1.8 atm. If the car is heavy, it will naturally behave abnormally in corners. In general, if the tires are German, without marriage, and everything is done wisely, you will be satisfied with this instance. In addition: I drove 2 full winters on rubber, about 20 thousand km. Everything is fine, wear is normal, the spikes are visually all in place. Decided to ate my review a bit. - you still feel the edge, noticeable in comparison with the summer Michelin Primacy 3; - got into very decent pits, at good speed, everything is fine with rubber; - maybe due to the fact that the spike is directional, there are no questions about braking on asphalt, but with a sharp acceleration from a standstill, slippage is observed; - traveled on all possible surfaces, keeps the road level, there is one exception - deep snow porridge. Although this is partly due to the width of the profile. In general, the impression of the rubber has not changed, I am very pleased with the choice.
