Technical information

Our classification not an official manufacturer classification

Focus: Standard

The largest and best-selling category, and Goodyear VECTOR 4SEASONS GEN-3 belongs to it. No single property is pushed here at the expense of the others — comfort, grip, noise and tread life keep a sensible balance. For most drivers it is the safest bet: the tyre behaves predictably in the dry and in the wet and covers a decent number of kilometres.

<p>For complicated South European and Greek climate they performed really well thr first two years. Just in the middle of the third summer (two and a half years - around 30000km) grip suddenly became really bad almost dangerous.</p>

<p>Excellent tyres for moderate climates. I ran them in the Netherlands for over a full year now and they dont let down in any weather circumstance.
Minor things i feel the sound can be quite noticable on some roads, and rolling resistance is higher then it should.</p>

<p>For two years there excellent tyres.</p><p>Grip, dry, wet, handling, wet, dry, hot and cold, excellent.</p><p>During the third summer - hot summer south Europe - although it didn't worn yet, but it was dried especially the sides making driving not very safe and good.</p>

<p>Living on the Scottish west I and with an Audi Quattro I used to have a summer and winter tyre set, but decided to give these a try and have never looked back. So much so I also have since had them fitted to my kids cars.</p>
