Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice Arctic 225/45 R18 95T winter Отзыв

The Goodyear UltraGrip Ice Arctic studded winter tire is the latest development from the world famous North American tire giant. This tire was created specifically for use in harsh winter conditions, which are inherent in Canada, Scandinavia and, of course, Russia. The main distinguishing feature of this tire is the Multicontrol Ice technology, which is based on directional spikes of the original design. Thanks to this, this tire demonstrates phenomenal traction on snow and ice. The originality of the stud design lies in the fact that the upper carbide insert is characterized by sharp edges, which significantly improve the coefficient of grip on icy surfaces, which contributes to increased acceleration efficiency. When cornering, when the tire is under the influence of lateral accelerations, smooth transitions on the stud body come into play. Braking efficiency on ice is ensured by the wide rear surface of the stud. In addition, the stud installation technology made it possible to achieve increased bond strength without the use of an adhesive base - the stud not only remains in place, but also does not scroll even under the most adverse conditions. Another feature of the new tire is the special shape of the interlocking blocks, which significantly improved handling characteristics when driving on slippery surfaces. At the same time, thanks to the extensive use of computer simulation tools, it was possible to achieve the perfect balance between the tire''s highest performance in various conditions and the excellent level of comfort that is a hallmark of all winter studded tires of this brand. The tread pattern of the Goodyear Ultragrip Ice Arctic tire features a traditional V-shaped pattern for this brand, equipped with sharp-angled sipes and wide transverse channels that provide effective removal from the water and snow contact patch. At the first contact with a snow-covered surface, the corner blocks of the tread with special visors, arranged in a checkerboard pattern, solve two important tasks - playing the role of a kind of breakwaters and friction clutches, they evenly distribute snow over the entire area of ​​the contact patch, while bringing its excess out through the shoulder areas of the tread.
