Sportauto Winter tyre test 2025 275/35 R19
very good
Ranked #3 of 6

3 out of 6 competitors — final rating: Very good — the Goodyear UltraGrip Performance 3 delivered a sure, predictable understeer that’s easy to control on snow, with very good cornering grip and an engaging, performance-oriented feel on wet and dry asphalt. Braking distances were somewhat longer and lateral guidance a bit weaker, with noticeable sensitivity to load changes in wet and dry turns and relatively low intrinsic damping. It was particularly strong in wet circle cornering, both objective and subjective dry handling, and exterior noise.
