ULTRA GRIP ICE 2

I bought these new in 2022 and have driven them for four winters. My impressions are very good, especially when there's a lot of snow in the winter. They've never let me down, and I've never gotten stuck even when the snow level looks scary. They're not afraid of ruts in snow and mud, and they perform predictably on a mixed road surface of ice, water, or snow.
For snowy winters, they're a fantastic option.
There's still plenty of tread left; they haven't reached the wear mark. At first, I was worried they might be too soft and wouldn't withstand potholes or cuts, but everything is fine.
On the downside, in dry weather, there's a subjective feeling that the braking distance is longer. Their softness, which is a plus in cold weather, leads to the car becoming slightly wobbly as the weather warms up. This could, of course, be due to the 205/60 R16 size.
For the anti-skid system to work on ice, you have to really try hard; I did this specifically to understand the limits of these tires. As with braking on ice, it's best not to mess around with them, as they certainly don't measure up to studded tires.
The highway ride is quite comfortable; you don't worry about speeds above 90 mph, even on wet roads. But its performance in the snow is beyond praise. While SUVs are frantically searching for cleared patches of road, I calmly make my way.

Overall good braking-, decent acceleration- & not avarage/below avarage lateral grip.
Tire looses grip with little to no warning. Overall feedback is quite low.
Now fitted for 4th winter, would last longer but realisticly 3 to 4 winters use is maximum with decent performance.

Used with a KIA Cee'd SW 2018, amazing winter tires for the Swedish winter, also drove them through Poland in the middle of winter. Great grip in winter conditions and extremely comfortable and quiet. Massive recommendation.

For a front wheel drive car the tyres are very grippy and gives a safe feel to drive. they can be a bit slippery on steep up hills and when there is loose snow or Ice. But once the TC is off they do grip quite well and pull the car along very well.
I would recommend buying these tyres and i have had similar ones on a old 318i and they were perfect as well.

Comfortable tyre.
Grip on dry and wet is good for a winter tyre.
Grip on ice and snow is lower than other premium winter tyres I've had.
Not going to buy again.
