    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 9+ is a winter tyre focused on optimising grip on ice and snow for passenger cars. Goodyear has developed a technology named Winter Grip which uses a resin to improve winter grip. UltraGrip 9+ has a directional V shaped tread pattern that has outward opening grooves that channel away water and slush. Goodyear has designed numerous biting edges on the tread by having fine slits on the tread that allow the tyre to roll over and grip packed snow.

UltraGrip 9+ has made improvements over UltraGrip 9 with the addition of Mileage Plus technology. Mileage Plus technology is a more elastic tread compound which reduces the damage caused by small fractures as a tyre drives over rough surfaces that have a large temperature variation. Versions of the UltraGrip 9+ have been given the 3PMSF designation which identifies the tyre as certified for severe snow conditions. Tyres.co.uk is proud to stock the Goodyear UltraGrip 9+.

Highlights

  • Winter grip resin compound

Tyre review for Goodyear UltraGrip 9+ 175/70R14 88T XL
So far, I have encountered different weather conditions while testing them, and they have performed flawlessly. I have not yet experienced black ice though. The tread pattern should suggest the traction will be more than adequate to grip the road and handle slippery conditions.

Tyre review for Goodyear UltraGrip 9+ 175/70R14 88T XL
These winter tyres are wonderful. In March, we got six inches of snow, then it melted and refroze, resulting in extremely slick conditions, but the Ultragrip tyres did an amazing job. I highly recommend getting a set on steel rims for the winter.

What a great job they did in the mud and the rain! I loved driving in snow with them for the first time today and I was pretty impressed.

Tyre review for Goodyear UltraGrip 9+ 175/70R14 88T XL
Excellent grip. When they start losing grip under adverse conditions, it happens slowly and not suddenly.
