Hello, I’ve been installing the new Goodyear ultragrip 8 for about 3 weeks! Had to test all kinds of road surfaces. On the whole the tire is really top!! Only one thing I noticed negatively: On wet road surfaces one hears the rolling noise of the tire very loudly when the vehicle accelerates, I think that the new gearing technology of the tire is to blame. I am generally quietly used to mature from Goodyear :-/ (UG7+) Have a 2nd new set au fn another car mounted(there the same) On the other hand, the tire is really top! I also noticed the narrow construction of the UG8. LG
