For many summer and ultra-high-performance (UHP) tires, they’re only limited in their usefulness to certain months out of the year. Summer/UHP tires typically have a rubber formulation that’s softer and “stickier” (sometimes as soft as a pencil eraser), designed for excellent traction and adhesion to the road. That softer tread formulation will stiffen up and lose traction on colder days, though, and most manufacturers advise against using them if temperatures are below 40-45 degrees F.
The Atlas Force UHP is different, however. It’s a tire that’s designed for UHP levels of cornering ability, braking performance, steering response, and overall handling along with the year-round traction of an all-season tire. It’s the best of both worlds in that respect, giving you the versatility and year-round value of an all-season tire with performance that’s sharp, crisp, and sporty. Don’t just take our word for it, though – let’s go in for a closer look with this Atlas Force UHP review:
There’s a lot to like about the Atlas Force UHP:
So, is this Atlas tire the right choice for your ride and budget? Before you decide, let’s take a look at the tire’s pros and cons.
PROS:
CONS:
If you’re looking for a UHP tire, it’s even better if you can find one that offers year-round performance and that’s what you can expect with the Atlas Force UHP. The Atlas Force UHP’s tread compound is designed for traction and good wear properties even in subfreezing weather, and the combination of sipes, circumferential, and angled grooves means excellent resistance to aquaplaning on a wet road. Even for high-horsepower sports sedans and muscle cars, the Atlas Force UHP delivers cornering and steering response that punch far above its weight class. Straight-line road manners are solid and stable without a need for constant corrections, but it also responds well to driver commands during an emergency swerve or cornering.
Some drivers have noted that the stiffer sidewalls and shoulders of the Atlas Force UHP can mean a harder ride on some pavement surfaces. In addition, it’s not a tire that’s designed to perform well in winter conditions like snow and slush, so that’s not a great surprise. With its 40-50,000 mile manufacturer’s treadwear coverage, though, the Atlas Force UHP is a great value in an all-season UHP tire that compares well to premium UHP tires that cost much more.
While not used as original equipment, the Force UHP is a good replacement tire for vehicles like the:

Cheap tires. Very loud and rough feeling. While rated All Season, they do not perform well in a light snow. Will not be purchasing again, 2021 Maserati Ghibli Trofeo. Back to Pirelli for 4x the price. It's just not worth the sacrifices on these tires.
Great quality for the price , looking forward to buy another set for my other car
However, they are a bit loud
Tires seam to work good on dry and wet roads rubber seams soft but grips hard corners good. I put them on my G6 convertible.
Tires are decent performing tires, not as good on grip as the original Pirelli, but at 1/4 the cost, can't complain!
Bought 2 tire 275/30/20 both tire are out of round had to take them off and buy a different set and it fixed my vibration problems
Bought these as a cheap temporary all season tire for my GT500. Turns out they are a really good tire. On center feel is a little bit vague, but grip is great in the cold, and wet traction is good too. I'm guessing in a test against other name-brand UHP all-season tires, this tire would demonstrate similar performance, and maybe beat some of the name-brand equivalents. Can't go wrong here if you are looking for a high performance all-season tire.
We had a snowstorm two days after I got these tires and it handled like a dream. Third time buying from Simpletire and this is the only way I will EVER buy tires again. My order included 5 day shipping but the tires were delivered the very next day!!
