recommended
Ranked #3 of 7
The Goodyear UltraGrip Performance 3 finished 3rd out of 7 competitors, earning a 'Recommended' rating. It excelled in dry handling, noise, snow cornering, and snow traction. Testers praised its excellent grip on snow and absence of serious weaknesses. On wet surfaces, it demonstrated good stability with slight understeer, making it dependable but somewhat sluggish. In dry conditions, it provided strong braking, good comfort, and efficiency, though it was a bit slow to change direction. This tire closely competed with Pirelli, offering even more traction and lateral grip with minimal steering adjustments.
