Goodyear tyres: UltraGrip for winter, Eagle F1 for summer
Goodyear was founded in 1898 in Akron, Ohio, where its headquarters remain today. The company has 53 plants in 20 countries; European tyres come mainly from Germany, Poland, Slovenia, Serbia, Luxembourg and France. Goodyear is one of the few major makers whose Nordic winter range covers both friction and studded tyres.
Winter is where Nordkit's Goodyear range is largest: UltraGrip Performance 3 and Performance+ for a Central-European winter, UltraGrip Ice 3 and Ice SUV G1 as Nordic friction tyres, and UltraGrip Arctic 2 and Arctic 2 SUV with studs. For summer there are Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 and 5, Eagle F1 SuperSport, EfficientGrip 2 SUV and Performance 2; for year-round driving, Vector 4Seasons Gen-3.
Every tyre shows the maker's EU label, the 3PMSF snowflake and the DOT year. By default the list shows only tyres available as a set of four, so the set you choose is actually available.
Which Goodyear tyre to choose
UltraGrip Ice 3 and UltraGrip Ice SUV G1
Goodyear's Nordic friction tyres for ice and packed snow — the stud-free choice for an Estonian winter on cars and SUVs, 3PMSF-marked.
UltraGrip Arctic 2 and Arctic 2 SUV
Studded tyre for deep winter: icy highways and snowy side roads. Studs are factory-fitted; the SUV version has a higher load rating for SUVs and pick-ups.
UltraGrip Performance 3 and Performance+
Central-European winter tyre with higher speed ratings: wet and slushy roads around freezing. Suited to powerful cars driven mostly on maintained roads.
Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6, Asymmetric 5 and SuperSport
Goodyear's sporty summer line: Asymmetric 6 is the latest generation for everyday sporty cars, SuperSport for sports cars and track days, Asymmetric 3 SUV for SUVs.
EfficientGrip Performance 2 and EfficientGrip 2 SUV
Comfortable, fuel-efficient summer tyre for family and mid-size cars and SUVs — focused on long life and low rolling resistance.
Vector 4Seasons Gen-3
All-season tyre with the 3PMSF mark, meeting Estonia's winter-tyre requirement. A sensible choice for a low-mileage city car that does not drive in deep snow.
