Any opinions on winter Goodyear vs Michelins?

Following. Would like to see some more feedback on the ultragrips.

When I ordered my winter kit from the dealer I wanted the N-spec PA5 due to all the excellent reviews it gathered, but sadly they were out of stock everywhere at the time, so I had to settle for the N-spec Goodyear Ultra Performance Gen 1. I am now starting my third winter with them and I honestly have nothing to complain about. I cannot do a direct comparison with the PA5, but I can say the Ultra grip are very good winter tires for my use case, which goes from cold dry roads, sleet and slush to ample snow.

Will know more next week on performance with colder temps.
It's a winter tire so there is some "mushiness" to the feel, but nothing any worse than I have experienced with Conti Wintercontact 810S or the Michelin Alpins I have had in the past.
Really cold wet/snow/ice performance pending however.

I’m Chicago as well, mounting P Zero Winters on the GT3 next Monday, we’ll see how it performs—happy to share here as well.

First snow driving in the Goodyear Ultra Grips.
Not a ton of snow, but enough that it’s slick out.
No complaints.

Well...winter definitely hit Chicagoland this weekend. -9 this am for a drive in the 911! The GY Ultragrip winters performed well on a combination of well salted roads, poorly salted ice/snowy side roads for about 70 miles over this past weekend. Even in -9 degree weather the tires gripped well and no squishy feeling while turning and overall comfortable ride. I didn't do any aggressive driving as the conditions are ridiculous, but overall very happy with the GY winters.
