Goodyear 117081637 Ultra Grip Performance Plus 255/40R20 101V XL Winter Tire

The Goodyear Ultra Grip Performance Plus is an ultra-high performance winter tire engineered for luxury vehicles, high-performance sedans, and sporty coupes that demand exceptional cold-weather capabilities without sacrificing handling precision. This studless winter tire delivers superior grip and control in snow, ice, and wet conditions while maintaining responsive performance on dry roads.

Advanced Winter Technologies:

• Traction Protect Technology: Features a specialized resin compound that enhances the tire's ability to deform and reform at low temperatures, converting braking forces into maximum grip on snow and ice
• Winter Grip Technology: Advanced silica-enhanced polymer compound maintains rubber elasticity in freezing conditions, ensuring optimal traction throughout the winter season
• 3D-BIS (Block Interlocking System): Proprietary technology that enhances stability and handling on dry roads while providing multiple biting edges for grip on slippery surfaces
• Directional Tread Pattern: Wide circumferential grooves efficiently evacuate water and slush to resist hydroplaning and maintain road contact

Performance Benefits:

• Three Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) certified for severe winter conditions
• Low rolling resistance design improves fuel efficiency and reduces road noise
• Shorter braking distances compared to predecessor models in both wet and dry conditions
• Enhanced lateral grip and cornering stability on snow-covered roads
• Black sidewall (BSW) construction with XL (extra load) rating for increased load capacity

Specifications: 255/40R20 size with 101V service description (1,819 lbs load capacity, V-speed rated to 149 mph). Tread depth of 11/32 inches, maximum inflation pressure of 50 PSI, overall diameter of 28 inches. Designed for use on approved rim widths of 8.5-10 inches.
