Specifications

Technical information

Our classification not an official manufacturer classification

Focus: Standard

The largest and best-selling category, and Imperial SnowDragon 3 belongs to it. No single property is pushed here at the expense of the others — comfort, grip, noise and tread life keep a sensible balance. For most drivers it is the safest bet: the tyre behaves predictably in the dry and in the wet and covers a decent number of kilometres.

★★★☆☆

Car: 2014 Ford Fiesta Red 140HP
Tire life: 4 years (40k km)
Excellent snow and ice grip, acceptable dry weather grip, progressive handling only in the dry. Terrible sudden underwater and oversteer in the wet.

Had these tires couple times on two different cars. Yes these are pretty cheap tires, but they have a lot of tire runout from factory. Which means no matter how straight or balanced your wheels are, you're gonna feel vibration from them.

★★★☆☆

Bought these tyres for the winter, a bit of a panic buy, but needed tyres for the winter. I have found them quite average in the wet cold conditions, you could even say the good summer tyres are better in these conditions. Comfort is reasonable so is road noise. I would advise not push in the car on these tyres as the car feels very nervous and not confidence inspiring. Can't give a review on wear rate yet as I have only done 1000 miles on them. I will not be buying again unfortunately.
