Not a good looking tire, but is very grippy in the dry and good enough in the wet. It is also very quiet and comfortable. It isn't a massive step over the Kuhmo Ecsta PS71's that I had previously, but these are a good tire. Also has some rim protection. But please Goodyear, male a better sidewall!!!

These replaced some uncouth Road-X tires. Superb Japanese tires. Do they know how to make a tire or what? It punches well above it's weight and drives like a Michelin PS5. They just put the power down. As they are so progressive they keep on giving. The car drives fantastic. A complete and utter transformation and new lease of life to the car. Corner fun? Check. Aqua plane? No problem. All round amazing tires that just get better and better the more you throw at them. No tramlining but stick to the road like glue. My first time trying a Yoko, having stuck to the big main brands for over 30 years. No regrets whatsoever. Slightly heavy as a run flat (newer run flats are lighter and weigh about the same as non run flats) but the minor fuel penalty is something I can life with because they feel so safe and assuring. We have a safe tire here. Sporty characteristics when required. Comfort when required. Not many can achieve that. Looking forward to trying the V107.

These tires are built for one thing and one thing alone, longevity. At 20,000 miles, the tread was 4.5mm-5.2mm and they clearly had life left in them. They are marketed as a tire that can reach 60,000 miles but that is where the praise stops. The compound is hard. As such, spirited driving is not their forte. The traction light and skid noises could draw attention. The dry grip is average. In the wet they were below average. Forget heavy cornering and handling. Simply put, they cannot handle excitement. Wet braking was terrible. There is a reason these are cheap and cheerful. The car just felt broken and never drove properly. Similar to a previous detailed BMW review on here for these tires. If you are looking for a town/city hard waring tire though, then these could be for you. However, safety is not at the forefront so I could not recommend these on a motorway. They were replaced with Yokohama and the difference is night and day. As these Road-X tires are quite hard, the fuel saving was okay but not spectacular. I would rather face a very minor fuel penalty with more appropriate and safer tires than use these again.

I have fitted these to my 2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia Veloce Q4 a few months ago and I am so impressed so far. Replacing the originally fitted Goodyear Asym 3 made such a difference. First of all the Toyo's are not run flats and the comfort is a million miles better. The noise level is lower. The grip is phenomenal and easily outperforms my old tires. Due to that the temptation to drive faster and faster is just massive. The only concern is that the Toyo's might not last as long as the others so called premium brands but I personally do not care at all as I drive very low mileage per year and I often replace tires only because the are getting too old. I simply can finish their tread before they completely turn into hard plastic. I have been using only Pirelli, Goodyear and Michelin so far at different cars I have owned. The Goodyear Asym 6 was priced exactly the same as the Toyo's but I have decided to try something different. Not feeling sorry for a bit. I would by Toyo again without any doubts that the tire provides me with all the confidence on the road I need. The premium brand bias is not something that I am going to be compliant with any more.

These tires are all that I put on my car, they are such a good all round tire the tires last really well but you can tell when they are nearing the tread wear depth marker, just about to put my 3rd set on the car, I do a lot of of miles.

Very good tire, I'm very pleased with them. Exactly what I expected, very good mix between performance/price/comfort.
Are very quiet, after 80 km/h I hear only some noise from the wind. Road feedback is very good, are very good for 18" wheels, I know very well what's happening with stearing of the car on cornering even at higher speed, good sidewall enforcement as well.
I looked for competition but were much more expensive and didn't have the same properties especially for noise level.
I used tires from competition, premium brands but I came many times back to GoodYear because they have the good mix for me.
Definitely I will buy them again. Very good job Goodyear.

So after 20 years of getting GY's (loved most of them), Continental (loved all of them), Pirelli (hated most of them) and Bridgestone (hated all of them), I got first time ever Michelin PS5 2 years ago on my 4 series coupe Bmw, they're 225/45/18 size. After that I was so amazed by Michelin generally that I changed to them on all of my cars including 911 997 and as long as they make them this good I'll keep buying them. The wear is amazing and like they told me in the tire shop (that they will stay the same all their legal life) they did. So after 60k km, yes 60k km they were down to legal limit and just today I put a set of new ones. The GY and Continental always performed well at the beginning but after half of the life it would go significantly down. This performed 50% better in wear than ever before. Max I got before on any tire was 40k km. Yes compared to Pirelli Cinturato P7 run flats the car was equipped from new there is a bit of less steering precision but my God have well they keep corners at Dolomiti mountain roads both in wet and dry and all the way at 50k km, I could actually say that only at around 55k km the back end was much happier going out. I was so blown away by them that I also got for the same car winter Alpin 5 tires and they are amazing as well. I can just say (in my case other people can have different opinions) there is Michelin and then there are other tires.

Firstly, the Ultrac Pro is a sexy tire. The sidewall is designed by italodesign, and it really looks good. Dry grip (intermediate temps ~10-20°C) is very good. The car feels to have endless grip and you really feel comfortable pushing some twisty roads. Obviously, the warmer it got, the stickier the tire was. The Ultrac Pro seems to like temperature.
Wet grip is also very handsome. You really feel comfortable driving in heavy rain, and the grip is also very reassuring. Especially in the wet

Coming from Finland, a country of winter snow and studs. Have these on two cars
- 2007 Focus Cabrio
- 1998 996 C2
In most winnter conditions amazing grip level. However, two shortcomings. 1) The modern light studs do not penetrate well if there is loose snow on top of hard snor/icy surface. Obviously this has more to do with regulations rather than the tire brand and model. 2) These modern silica tires seem to collect a layer of snow in slow speeds, say below 30..40 km/h . Both these properties make the tires a bit Jekyll and Hyde. At best it gives enormous amount of grip but then you come on loose snow and you think you are driving very slow - and suddenly you have absolutely no grip. I wish we could still have the longer studs. I can tell it is not nice to get the impression of good grip for some 50 km (0.3 < muu < 0.5) and then in an open place wind has collected snow on the hard snow surface and a deer runs into your lights and you find absolutely no grip at all (like muu = 0.05). Fortunately I had my insurances. I dont think this would have happened with the old style big block, long heavy stud Hakkapeliittas. Those would have not given the level of grip on the 50 km stretch but they would have lost pretty much nothing coming to the loose snow.
What impresses me is the strong stud base. The cavity seems wrapped with a very strong compound and the studs seem to not come off at all. The construction of the tire seems very good for winter purposes, not too stiff nor too soft side wall. Subjectively I think I would prefer a sharper shoulder but that is more like an image in my head rather than supported by my driving experience.
If I was to develop this tire I would look into the slow speed attached snow layer phenomenom - perhaps on all the silica tires. I also would like to try something like raised tread on the lines of studs to get the modern studs penetrate better the loose snow on top of the hard.
I know one problem with the winter tire testing is that the tracks are always similar to get good comparability. But in real life the surfaces vary much more in winter conditions and a good winter tire should even the grip levels to predictable. As good as the X-Ice 4 is it is not the most predictable tire. Fortunately you can learn to predict the places where you will loose the grip. I find this all more of a result of rather compromized regulations than tire makes development work.

In most winnter conditions amazing grip level. However, two shortcomings. 1) The modern light studs do not penetrate well if there is loose snow on top of hard snor/icy surface. Obviously this has more to do with regulations rather than the tire brand and model. 2) These modern silica tires seem to collect a layer of snow in slow speeds, say below 30..40 km/h . Both these properties make the tires a bit Jekyll and Hyde.

Great tires for road and track, if you like.
Not too noisy but not a quiet tire.
Wear is great. Mine have seen a few trackdays and around 40000km and there is still plenty of tire left.
If you find them for a good price, BUY!

Bought this 4 pcs tires on Nov 2023 - Drove less than 5k km. 1 of the tire swollen. Lucky able to claim under warranty.
Found the road vibration is rough, center console is vibrating slightly. 3 times done tires balancing but doesn't help.
Inflate the tires to 28 bar pressure to lessen the roughness and vibration.
Car is push and pull to left and right when roll over the patch road ( need to hold the steering wheel tightly )
Driving the the highway on hot day with temperature at 36celcius, able to feel the tire road noise much obvious. Suddenly when the sky open up , the tires less vibration and noisy.
