Let's meet one of the most trustworthy winter tires designed by Goodyear, the Ultra Grip Ice WRT. Being a studdable tire, it has the option to be fitted with special metal pins to boost adherence between tire and ice.
Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice WRT comes with a new tread compound that offers high adherence power on icy and snow-covered surfaces. Shaped into a directional tread pattern, the rubber ensures high road stability. Due to the special groove design, it channels water, snow, and slush away from the tire footprint. On the other hand, the innovative tread design also incorporates 2D blades in the center zone for rapid starts and stops during winter. In addition, in the production of this model engineers use 3D TredLock Technology blades in the shoulder blocks. As a result, the tire can gives improved traction on both icy and snowy roads. Best of all, the Ultra Grip Ice WRT is also one of the few models featuring a rim protector. The main role of this element is to defend wheels from damage produced by curbs. When it comes to ride comfort, even if it is a studdable tire, this model provides smooth and improved acoustic comfort.
Finally, this model is sold in multiple sizes and covers many sedans and crossovers in daily routines. For example, Chevrolet Captiva, Hyundai Tucson, Kia Sportage, and Jeep Compass feel more confident with this model. According to the annual sales, the Ultra Grip Ice WRT is one of the best selling Goodyear winter products.
