Features and Benefits: Winter weather traction; Increased controllability; Comfortable performance; Goodyear Ultra Grip Performance + TiresThe Goodyear Ultra Grip Performance + is a touring and performance, winter tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. The tire provides great winter weather traction. The durable compound and the detailed directional tread design enable the tire to significantly boost its dry conditions, ice, and snow grip. The high-density biting edges enable the tire to generate biting edges, increasing its performance. A stronger rubber compound keeps its rubber flexibility, ensuring its traction in freezing temperatures. Circumferential and angled lateral grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from the footprint. The tire offers excellent controllability and maneuvering. The stable directional footprint maintains its surface contact throughout the performance, boosting steering responsiveness and driving stability. Additionally, the tread elements manage to increase the tires cornering and braking capabilities. These improvements enable the tire to improve the drivers control over the vehicle throughout the performance. Exceptional high speed durability is ensured with the reinforced internal structure. The Goodyear Ultra Grip Performance + offers better driving comfort levels. The tread pattern helps to lower road noise generated while the tires are in motion. This prevents sound waves from reaching the vehicles cabin, as airwaves are channeled through the footprint. Their combination guarantees a quiet driving experience. 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.
