Good, effective tire. He denies the facts that the tire multigrade does not work.

I am writing this review only because of low popularity, and even laughing at all season tyres by some users. The Goodyear Vector 4Seasons are better than just good. In winter they behave like winter tyres - I also used them in mountain area. I had problems with traction twice - on a 10-inch layer of wet snow in the parking lot (but I drove out without any help and didn't waste time as other drivers did). I was afraid that I'll pay the price of good winter grip in summer. But nothing like that happened, I didn't notice the tyre to be softer than typical summer tyre (to cope with this partially, I bought the tyres with higher load index for this size - 94V XL). in corners the drawback of directional tyres can be seen, which is worse side grip. it's hard for me to assess abrasion, because I do not change the tyres so often to see the difference (15 thousand miles per year).

The size 195/50R15 seems to be too wide for winter conditions - I experienced problems when starting up the hill and sliding in fresh, "icy" snow, they are also prone to light swerving. Generally, however, I'm surprised because of the versatility of these tyres. Together with sensible driving and chains in the trunk (for emergency purposes) we have happily survived the winter. In summer, no matter if the surface is wet or dry - no problems. To sum up, I can definitely recommend Goodyear Vector 4Seasons.

Much better in winter (snow and ice) than standard fit summer tyres. A bit rumbly on smooth roads, but not obtrusive. Performance in summer yet to be fully evaluated, but wet and dry grip seems ok. They seem to be wearing well and have no discernible impact on fuel consumption. If you haven't the space to keep an extra set of winter tyres/ rims, then these are very good compromise. Ideal for UK unless you're doing endless motorway miles.
