Specifications

Technical information

Our classification not an official manufacturer classification

Focus: Standard

The largest and best-selling category, and Goodyear EFFICIENTGRIP 2 SUV 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.

Had these on for 30k miles and still got 5mm of tread left. Great in the wet and dry and very quiet. Improved my mpg vs previous tyres as well.
