Specifications

Technical information

Our classification not an official manufacturer classification

Focus: Standard

The largest and best-selling category, and Goodyear EFFICIENTGRIP PERFORMANCE 2 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>Predictable tyre, allround one with fantastic wear cost. Would definitely buy it again. My favourite on this car with Michelin.</p>

SEAT Ibiza · 215/45 R16 · 11 265 km

<p>all round excellent long lasting tyres , performance not so good when they get down below 3 mm to be expected. Preferred these over Bridgestone's.</p>

SEAT Leon 5f mk3 2014 · 205/55 R16 · 35 406 km
★★★★★

<p>Bought at 185000 km, reviewed at 220000km. BEST tyres i've ever had. Absolute wet and dry grip, low noise and excellent wear. After 35000 km in the front axle of a mk3 leon TDI, tyres sit at 5.2 mm left.</p>

Hyundai i30 · 205/55 R16 · 24 140 km
★★★☆☆

<p>An excellent grip/duration ratio. Unfortunately, they have such a soft sidewall that the car sways dangerously in cornering if the asphalt is not perfect. When I changed them, I mounted another brand, unfortunately.</p>

Renault R4 E Tech · 195/60 R18 · 6 000 km
★★★★☆

<p>These tires are comfortable, quiet, and I find them very safe on both dry and wet roads. They are good at absorbing bumps in the asphalt. The noise level is low. The grip on dry roads is exemplary—braking, cornering, acceleration. On wet roads, they feel very safe.
I have no complaints. These tires are well-suited for city driving, country roads, and highways. I don't drive sportily, but as a touring tire, they are an excellent fit.</p>
