Product description
- Winter tyre for high-performance cars.
- Good grip in winter conditions.
- Excellent control in cold weather.
Designed for powerful cars, the Goodyear UltraGrip Performance 2 tyre brakes short and delivers exceptional grip in all winter situations.
Snow. Good handling on hills and during acceleration, stability on the snow and ice ensured by the circumferential grooves.
Safety. Excellent handling in all winter situations:
- Brakes 8% shorter than its competitors* on the snow;
- Excellent control in cold weather (Adaptative SipeGrip technology);
- Resists aquaplaning because of the hydrodynamic V-shaped grooves and the intermediary circumferential grooves;
- Maintains its grip on all low temperature surfaces thanks to a silica-polymer compound.

What is the rezulteo score?
The rezulteo score is calculated considering three performance categories: economy, comfort and safety. When it comes to winter tyres, the performance criteria snow and ice are added. By weighting different basic performance criteria an overall score is determined. This weighting is calculated based on the tyre size category: economic, high performance or sports.
