* Comparative tests made by Goodyear GIC*L on size 315/80R22.5 show that: the new Goodyear UltraGripMax D offers an improvement in snow grip of up to 40% compared to Goodyear UltraGrip WTD. New Goodyear UltraGripMax D drive tyres offer an improvement in mileage potential of up to 15% compared to Goodyear UltraGrip WTD. Actual results may vary based on, but not restricted to, road and weather conditions, tyre size, tyre pressure and vehicle maintenance
The new ULTRA GRIP MAX S tire sees the introduction of ULTRA GRIP MAX Technology which comprises two new Goodyear technologies: IntelliMax Block Technology and IntelliMax Edge Technology.
IntelliMax Block Technology features longitudinal, diamond shape blocks with variable depth, contoured sipes, producing variant block strengths to maximize sipe opening for optimal snow and ice grip. The contoured sipes interlock for ideal tread stiffness, when the tire rolls through its footprint, offering regular wear and a high mileage potential.
IntelliMax Edge Technology features tapered, stepped groove angles forming a high number of “biting edges” for optimum tire to road connectivity, especially on slippery surfaces.
