In this comparison, we are comparing a tyre from a manufacturer from Japan (Starfire) against a tyre from a manufacturer from USA (Goodyear). Generally, Goodyear winter tyres are slightly better rated (86%) than Starfire (1%). But when it comes to comparing Starfire W200 and Goodyear UltraGrip 9, the rating is the same - 0%. The first tyre test of Starfire W200 was done in 2016, compared to 2015 when was the Goodyear UltraGrip 9 first tested. Important for this comparison is also the Autobild 2016 205/55 R16 test, where both the W200 and the UltraGrip 9 were tested.
