Goodyear Viva 3 Tires – Our Review
Overall Assessment
The Viva 3 is the third installment in the Goodyear series which is testament to its quality and consistent demand over the years. The all season favourite is geared to perform in a variety of weather conditions, providing both stability and traction on wet, dry and slightly snowy roads. The tread pattern provides even tread wear throughout the tire.
This delivers a quieter and more comfortable overall ride for the users. The broader circumferential grooves on the tires give way for excellent traction and help remove excess water and slush from the contact patch. The grooves and edges consist of a zig zag pattern which provides consistent traction in all weather conditions.
These patterns resist strongly against hydroplaning in particularly wet conditions and allow for enhanced handling and excellent ride comfort. Along with all these features comes a sleek design and an affordable price offering. This makes it a great option for users on a budget seeking a reliable product.

Goodyear Viva 3 Customer Reviews
Andrew says: “Good value for price as compared to other brands. Quiet riding tires with good handling. I wanted a quiet, comfortable ride, I have taken a road trip totalling 700 miles since I purchased these tires. Very satisfied with the ride, sound level is great, and gas mileage improved a little. Wet and dry traction seems fine, they do not have an issue with the snow as traction was great for my trip to Illinois. I had the wheels aligned immediately after purchase, to ensure that the tires would not have any issues. Overall I say this is a great buy and will update after 6 months if I find anything that needs to be addressed.”

Daryl says: “I had Viva 2 on my 2008 Impala, so when I went to buy 4 tires, the Viva 3 replaced the Viva 2. Tires are excellent and handle very well. Car has a smooth ride to it with no road noise. Would recommend getting an alignment when buying new tires. I have them rotated and balanced every 6000 miles which is due very soon. I would highly recommend them to anyone.”
