Goodyear UltraGrip Performance+ Tire Rank
6 7 in Passenger / Winter
2 4 in Performance Winter / Snow
Manufacturer's description
Goodyear UltraGrip Performance+ brings improved braking and grip to consumers looking for an excellent winter-performance.
The Goodyear UltraGrip Performance+ improves its wet, dry and winter performance for high-performance cars thanks to two key technologies. Traction Protect Technology includes a new resin which improves the deformation and reformation capabilities of the tire. This allows for braking forces to be better converted into grip. Winter Grip Technology carries a new compound mixture leading to a better rubber elasticity at low temperatures, boosting grip on snow and ice.
Notable Features
Goodyear UltraGrip Performance+ (Plus) is a European-type friction winter tire that ensures reliable grip and efficient braking on snow, as well as on wet and dry pavements. This tire model is designed to be fitted on high-performance passenger cars. A new product engineered for the winter season 2019/2020.
The Goodyear UltraGrip Performance+ is an improved version of the UltraGrip Performance Gen-1 model that inherited its predecessor’s tread pattern and optimized rubber compound, which significantly improved its behavior on winter roads.
The UltraGrip Performance Plus features Goodyear’s “Traction Protect Technology”, which, thanks to a new resin included in the tread compound, enhances the tire’s deformation and reformation ability. Essentially, this means that when braking, the force exerted is more efficiently converted into grip.
Due to the use of the proprietary Winter Grip technology, the engineers were able to improve the elasticity of the rubber compound at low temperatures, which in turn served to improve the Goodyear UltraGrip Performance+ grip on snow and ice.
