What owners say
This tyers on snow are the safest of them all, I felt confident on a highway in a snow storm. I was on the mountin where all others were with snowchains and I didnt have them and drove safely uphill or downhill. On the positive side is that this tyers are confortable and silent even at high speed on higway.
The grip is great, i like it on my EV.
But: its clearly lauder than my summer tyres, i hope after a while it gets better
We have tested the tyres for 4000 km in a mixture of roads.
The weather conditions were wet and dry below 10 deg Celsius, but no snow or ice.
At highway speeds the tyres had a good comfort and low noise. The braking distance was decent.
In the city, the tyres had excellent behaviour filtering the bumps and roughness of the surface very well.
On twisted roads is the place where these tyres shine. Their grip is excellent both on wet and dry, the road feedback is very good and the noise is practically null.
Tires are very quiet and comfortable. Work great in the dry and wet. Not driven on snow yet.
I've had these tires for a couple of winters. I haven't driven them in the snow yet because there's no snow (yet) and that's why I bought them in the first place. I read in the tests published here that they are great in winter conditions. I only have rear-wheel drive on my car and I want tires that are good in the snow.
They are great in the wet as well as in the dry...maybe they are a little noisier..but I'm used to winter tires "buzzing" a bit.
p.s.
I'll update the review when I try them on snow and ice.
