  • Tick Icon Car
    Car tyre:

    Designed for cars, rather than vans, 4x4s or commercial vehicles.

  • Tick Icon Reinforced (XL)
    Extra Load or Reinforced tyres:

    A stronger sidewall lets this tyre carry more weight than a standard tyre of the same size. Marked XL on the sidewall.

  • Tick Icon Winter
    Winter tyres:

    Designed for temperatures below 7°C. Summer tyre rubber hardens in the cold and loses grip, while a winter compound stays soft and holds the road in cold, wet and snowy conditions.

Product description & features

The Goodyear UltraGrip Performance 2 is designed to quickly clear standing water or slush and retain steering responsiveness due to the stability of the tread blocks. V-TRED Technology uses a directional V arrangement of main grooves that guide slush and water away from the centre of the tyre. Meanwhile, 3D-BIS Technology uses an interlocking Nebraska formation throughout the tread that opens to bite into snow. Once the interlocking slits have engaged, they reinforce the tread design on dry or firm road surfaces.

The UltraGrip Performance Gen-1 replaced this model in 2015. This model also includes the XL construction which denotes a reinforced sidewall construction for that model’s specific high load vehicles. Also available is the run-flat construction which allows the tyre to be supported temporarily after a loss of air. Tyres.co.uk offers the Goodyear UltraGrip Performance 2, including the reinforced XL and run-flat versions.

Highlights

  • Directional V grooves for water and slush
  • Interlocking tread slits for snow
  • Reinforced sidewall versions available
  • Run-flat versions available
