Which winter tyre should I consider in size 215/55 R17?

Automatically reviewed answer

Hello, for a winter tyre in 215/55 R17, first check the vehicle’s required load index and speed rating: the size alone does not establish suitability. I would shortlist Goodyear UltraGrip Performance 3, provided the exact version meets your vehicle’s requirements. In ADAC’s 2024 comparison, it won with an overall “good” rating of 2.0; the tested specification was 215/55 R17 98V, using a VW T-Roc. ADAC rated its performance on dry, wet and winter roads as good. Look for the mountain-and-snowflake symbol (3PMSF), which confirms a defined minimum snow-performance level. Before ordering, confirm the complete tyre specification in your vehicle documentation or with the manufacturer. If you share your car’s model and year and whether you mainly encounter rain or snow, I can help narrow the choice.
