Goodyear Ultra Grip 9+ 205/55R16, Winter, Performance tires.

Goodyear Ultra Grip 9+FEATURES AND BENEFITS Winter weather traction; Upgraded controllability; Comfortable driving experience; OVERVIEWThe Goodyear Ultra Grip 9+ is a touring, winter tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. The model promotes excellent winter weather traction. The directional tread pattern and the winter compound work together to improve the tires performance on ice- and snow-covered road surfaces. In other words, this tread pattern maintains constant contact with the driving surface even in harsh conditions. At the same time, the special silica compound keeps the rubber pliable in freezing temperatures. The optimal grooves effectively eliminate water and slush from the footprint and resist hydroplaning. The directional tread pattern and the durable rubber compound closely follow the road surface at all times. This significantly increases the tires steering responsiveness and driving stability. The steering response time is faster and more precise to the drivers commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. Also, the wide shoulder blocks firmly grip the road surface with extra biting edges and upgraded cornering. On the other hand, the special silica compound shortens the braking distance, by creating friction while stopping. These elements give the driver full control over the vehicle and guarantee a safe driving experience. The Goodyear Ultra Grip 9+ offers a comfortable drive. The directional tread pattern and the special silica compound work together to reduce noise and vibrations during the performance. In other words, this footprint channels airwaves through, preventing them from coming into contact with tread elements and generating noise. Also, the special silica compound absorbs the shock of the ride, which minimizes vibrations felt by the passengers. This combination guarantees the tires quiet and comfortable performance. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
