Recommendable tyres after 6 thousand kilometers driven snow and the roads ślizgich can say that the weakest point of the tyre is riding in slush and especially on curves.

For many years I ride a Googyearach alternately with what is assumed to be at the factory for a new car. For now, nothing better came. Particularly in harsh environments is apparent. Sensational behave in the wet!

On wet asphalt tends to fall into a skid. What a moment squeaks traction control. Although I did not believe it actually burns more fuel on the reviews. In my car is about 0.5 -0.8 Litre.

My previous tyre - the Ultra Grip 7 - brilliant! When it comes to Ultra Grip 8 - for now - great disappointment! It is mainly due to constant loss of grip when trying to set off in snow or on ice and, what is really outrageous, in the wet (even after a drizzle). Another issue is braking in the snow. ABS kicks in with the slightlest touch of the brake pedal. I really don't trust them any more. Once more, the goodyear Ultra Grip 8 is a big, big disappointment and I honestly wouldn't recommed it to anyone. In this price range I think I would go for Continentals.

I was to buy Dunlop Winter Response - I have summer season Dunlops and they are unbeatable. And as for Goodyear... in temperatures around 2 degrees C and in wet the ABS goes crazy and I can't pull away without skidding, which wouldn't happen even with summer tyres! In 2 degrees the summer tyre should be visibly worse than a winter one! I totally regret buying the Ultra Grip 8, especially when I could have bought Dunlops. Sometimes I feel that it behaves as Debica Navigator 2, which is total ***.

I bought Goodyear Ultra Grip 8 in November 2011r. till the begining of March I made about 17.000 miles. I used Conti TS830 last season and I have to say that they are not so good. I have Kia Ceed Diesel 115BHp. Advantages: durable, low attriction, low noise level, very good driving comfort, good tracktion and braking. Disadvantages: no water-drain groove so there is problem with driving on snow-mud with speeds over 60MPH. Medium aquaplaning resist. Low side grip while cornering and poor braking on wet road surface. Goodyear Ultra Grip 8 is a efficient tyre but for this price I would like to have something better.

Tires bought a brand new high evaluations after they have obtained in the tests ADAC and I feel disappointed by their behavior especially in the snow. The car can not cope with the snow-covered driveway of the hill, which is in Bielsko little. In addition, cornering complains back. On tires Fulda and Debica was definitely better. After consultation with the vulcanizer received opinions confirming my observations, that these tires are not suitable for winter Polish conditions so I have to agree. The next time a pile of tires in accordance with the recommendation of the vulcanizer, not the opinions of ADAC, because apparently they do not reflect the reality of our road conditions.
