Driving through freezing rain, ice, and snow can be stressful for even the most seasoned driver, but winter tires are designed to help navigate through these hazardous winter elements. Goodyear's Ultra Grip 8 Performance features multiple biting edges for superior braking power on snow and ice, while its center rib is designed to further enhance snow traction. An optimized silica compound keeps the Ultra Grip 8 Performance flexible in colder temperatures so that drivers have consistent grip, and a Three Peak Mountain Snowflake symbol means that this tire performs in severe snow conditions.
