The Eagle Ultra Grip GW-3 is Goodyear’s Performance Winter / Snow tire that was developed for the drivers of high performance sport coupes and sport sedans who want traction on winter’s dry, wet and snow-covered roads. Eagle Ultra Grip GW-3 winter tires are designed to combine good snow and ice traction with European high-speed winter driving performance.
Eagle Ultra Grip GW-3 winter tires feature a performance winter compound molded into a V-TRED technology directional tread pattern to combine winter traction in snow with hydroplaning resistance on wet and slush-covered roads. The Eagle Ultra Grip GW-3’s rounded shoulder and independent intermediate tread blocks enhance dry and wet road handling while the center rib provides constant road contact for highway stability. All elements of the tread design use strategically placed sipes to provide the biting edges needed to help grip snow for winter traction without resorting to traditional metal studs.
Eagle Ultra Grip GW-3 winter / snow tires meet the industry’s severe snow service requirements and are branded with the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol.
Eagle Ultra Grip GW-3 tires feature winter wear indicators to identify when wear causes the remaining tread depth to become unable to provide beneficial snow performance.
