Passenger-car tire for year-round use
The Gripmax MaxGrip Classic 215/70R15 98H is a new all-season tire built for passenger cars and SUVs. Its symmetric tread pattern and rubber compound deliver consistent steering response and stable handling across wet and dry roads. The H speed rating supports sustained driving up to 130 mph, while the 98 load index matches typical family-sedan and crossover requirements.
Tread design and compound changes
The continuous centre rib and optimised block geometry keep the contact patch even during cornering, reducing irregular wear and preserving directional stability. The all-season silica blend remains pliable in cooler temperatures, so wet grip and hydroplaning resistance stay effective through autumn and spring rain without a dedicated winter compound.
Capacity and headroom
With a 440 treadwear rating and UTQG traction grade A, the tyre offers a long service life on paved roads while maintaining short stopping distances on wet asphalt. The 26.9-inch overall diameter and 10/32-inch tread depth provide ample clearance for standard 15-inch wheels, but the SL load range and non-run-flat construction mean it is not suited for heavy loads or continued driving after a puncture.

Questions about this item
When will the 10/32 tread depth need replacement?
Replace the tyre when the tread wears down to the legal minimum, usually 2/32, so the original 10/32 depth gives several seasons of use before that point.
What limits high-speed driving on the H-rated 215/70R15 tyre?
The H speed rating allows sustained running up to 130 mph; exceeding that risks overheating the tread compound.
How much heat and noise does the 440 UTQG tread produce on long motorway runs?
The 440 treadwear compound runs cooler and quieter than softer sport tyres, keeping cabin noise low during all-day driving.
