Description of Goodyear Ultra Grip Performance 2 255/50 R21 106H winter
Goodyear Ultra Grip Performance 2 RunFlatThe Goodyear Ultra Grip Performance 2 Series is based on the first commercially successful model to become one of the best-selling winter friction tyres. The second generation of these tires inherited all the main advantages of the previous version: excellent handling, good grip, long range and ride comfort. Despite the use of a European tread design, Goodyear Ultra Grip Performance 2 RunFlat tires can be used without any restrictions in northern latitudes with a harsh frosty climate. These tires use a rubber compound of increased frost resistance, capable of enduring extremely low temperatures without loss of elasticity and elasticity.
Increased number of sipesThe main factor that determines the grip properties of tires, along with the composition of the rubber, is the density of the sipes. In the tires Ultra Grip Performance 2, this indicator has been significantly increased in comparison with the tires of the first generation. Also, the developers have finalized the internal structure of the lamellas. To prevent their excessive deformation under high loads (for example, during rapid acceleration or braking), special blockers were provided on the side surfaces of the lamellas. These elements limit deformations, due to which the lamellas do not close in the contact patch and do not lose their performance.
Winter wear indicator The tread blocks have special markings in the form of snowflakes. This indicator remains on the surfaces of the rubber blocks until the tread wears to a critical level. When the snowflakes finally disappear from the working surface of the tires, they are not recommended to be used in the winter. In this state, they can be rolled in the off-season.
Puncture SafetyGoodyear Ultra Grip Performance 2 RunFlat Tires feature reinforced sidewall construction. They remain in working order even after a through breakdown, when air is completely out of the wheels. On a car with flat tires, you can drive a distance of about 80 km. During this run, you should contact the nearest tire shop. Please note that RFT tires should only be used in combination with pressure sensors, otherwise the driver will not be able to notice a tire puncture in time.
