I had a set of Barum Polaris 2 budget winter tyres previously mounted on my vehicle. They were OK but after five seasons the rubber compound became too hard and they began to slide in wet weather conditions. It was a high time to purchase something new and something better. My choice was the Goodyear Ultra Grip 9 as I have summer tyres from the same manufacturer. They are very quiet and almost as comfortable as my summer Goodyears. Their wet grip is astonishing. Although the Goodyear Ultra Grip 9 is not quite a sporty tyre model, it is a real revelation for me. The price was really good. Absolutely no problem in steering on fresh or frozen snow. My car clutched the surface as if it was summer with summer tyres on. I agree with the comments I found on the Internet. The Goodyear Ultra Grip 9 is a perfect tyre for all those who look for a reliable product from premium segment. I do strongly recommend these tyres.

I bought a set of these tires, encouraged by the vendor. For me, this is a shot in with the ten, when it comes to the selection. Tire mostly very quiet, soft as the route and at high speed makes a difference. Throughout the winter, whether it be a light fresh snow or kopnym really uciągnęła, so respect. So far have executed perfectly - as soon as the next highest buy another identical.

The tires used for a week, generally ok, horseback seamless - well hold on curves, relatively quiet, I did not notice a dramatic increase in combustion - all normal. Bought about a month ago, decided to choose the price, in this period, the cheapest of several (Pirelli, Michelin, Dunlop, Continental). Not yet tested in the snow and mud solid, but I think that it should not be a problem. Previous tires are Pirelli Carving, equally pleasant to use for several winters.

I would like to share my opinion about the Goodyear Ultra Grip 9 tyres. I decided to purchase them after reading some reviews. So far they are the best winter tyres I have ever had (my previous tyres were Michelins EnergySaver model). I do not regret my decision. I have done more than 6000 miles on them and they still look like new. The tyres are really quiet. They are unusually comfortable as for winter tyres. They are doing very good in snow and slush. They look good on a car. They could be a bit better in dry weather. Braking distance on a wet surface is very good but if you start quickly, they sometimes squeal. When it comes to their wear I cannot tell much because I would have to drive more on them. As for now there are no signs of wear. I would buy the Goodyear Ultra Grip 9 again. The rubber compound is quite soft. In my previous car (Ford Focus II, 2007) I had Continental WinterContact tyres and they were not as good as the Goodyear Ultra Grip 9. I would definitely buy these Goodyears again.

The tyres are pretty good. When it comes to braking distance in dry weather conditions I must admit that it is more than great. The Goodyear Ultra Grip 9 tyres are quiet even in low temperatures. They behave predicatable and provide a good traction. They are doing well in snow and slush. Such conditions as mud or ice do not constitute an obstacle for them. If I had to purchase some winter tyres again, I would go for the Goodyear Ultra Grip 9 again without any doubts. I was hesitating to buy Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 but unfortunately I do not know a lot about Conntinental products. I had UG7 model previously and I was satisfied with its quality.

If they are just as good as the previous one that I will not complain. The tread looks at more advanced and I like the tire design

In winter conditions (snow, ice, slush) very good tires, but on dry and wet surfaces with positive temperature (up to a few degrees - as most of the winter) the tires to the ground leaves a lot to be desired. When sudden braking - even at low speeds (approx. 30 km / h) lose traction - the car skids, which is essential for safety. Personally, I would gladly get rid of them and certainly do not buy the second time.

From the first sight Goodyear Ultra Grip 9 brings only positive emotions. Very solid appearance, easy to mount and fit. As soon as I was on the road, my surprise was even bigger. The tyres are one of the most quiet I have ever use. They are very quiet even on the highway, which is very important if you are going on a longer trip. On the dry surface the grip is very good, safe cornering. On wet and slush (during this winter was not much snow), the tyres are doing their job. I managed to test them also on the fresh snow and the braking was without any problems. I have driven about 5000 miles and the trad ware is not very big. Fully recommend them.
