Review on Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice Arctic 195/60 R15 88T winter by Stanislaw Bieroza ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Only disadvantages and no pluses, do not buy.

I bought tires after reading reviews, which, as it seems to me now, for the most part, are "custom-made". I drive little and slowly, and in two seasons I skated only 2 thousand km on these tires - and have already lost more than half of the spikes. Due to the fact that the grooves are actually across the tires, there is no directional stability of the car. Once I was driving at a speed of 40 km / h, the road was covered with snow slurry 2 cm thick - as a result, the car was simply thrown off the asphalt onto the side of the road. Well, at least to the right, and not to the oncoming lane. Take a look at the tread yourself: snow will simply not be squeezed out of the grooves at speed and planning will begin. And what will the tire cling to when cornering?

Pros
  • No.
Cons
  • Tires have a design flaw: the tread grooves across the tire due to this lack of directional stability. Lost 60% of studs in two seasons.
