Opinion from outside the UK
Surprisingly low tyre grip in the snow. Tread grooves quickly clog with snow, which does not come off with a re-circulation wheel (moved experience with yarn driven into the tread groove with snow - threads and yarns remain in place for about 400 meters on snow). This tyre is definitely "Motorway" - for a quick ride in the winter after a good cleared of snow roads. Read more Collapse

Behaves very well at low temperatures, snow and slush. Very quiet. He has one notable drawback - at higher temperatures tread depth and softness of rubber make the car gives the impression of a "rocked" on the sides. At lower temperatures, the phenomenon disappears. Besides - the tyre perfectly - especially the really inexpensive compared to the leading brands. Read more Collapse

Tyres very good, mostly for snow but are not even wear "light" winter. Proven on the route Warsaw - Gdansk on dry, wet and very heavy weather conditions (snow + ice + water + a night). We strongly recommend that the grounds for abrasion resistance, good grip on wet road, literally stuck in the snow and pulled the car and not hear from them are the zimowkami :) Read more Collapse

Saved my life several times, I'm sure! In the snow, even if you want it you can not poślizgać, it's hockey you can. On a dry soft ride moderately noises. Unfortunately, one after the season is tyre przytarta and it is impossible to do in a car with ABS so flaw factory warranty but I did not even dream of, and so I do not believe it. Overall I would recommend. Read more Collapse

The tyres are very quiet and this was the basis for my purchase. In addition, have other advantages, but important. The snow behave well on the ice, as the ice - all tyres almost the same, but never suffering a curb because of it. Previously ridden on tyres brands considered to be higher (Pirelli, Michelin), I believe that Firestone in anything they do not disappear. Read more Collapse

Tyre as its price very good. It gives a great sense of security. Before it skids quite clearly indicates that one too and you get out of trouble. I do not know if others will confirm, but I noticed that it has a better grip when braking, than when starting, but one can not talk about the inability to move it, even in difficult conditions. The relatively large comfort Read more Collapse

Revelation in the snow, on ice - known best spikes, or stay at home - much worse. Wet snow around on wet asphalt śliskawo and above 80 km / h ridiculously whistle, but it is bearable. In very good dry traction and quiet ride. attrition is difficult to assess - too short a distance. Overall I would recommend. Price very reasonable - good adhesion values, good comfort.

In comparison with their previous year round tyres Goodyear Vector, firestone excel sensational. Uses them mainly in + weekend trips to ski - which showed its advantages in the snow. After 12 thousand km no visible signs of major clashes. Generally, I recommend these tyres, I did not have any problems with them, but as I say I have no comparison to other winter tyres.

Picked, I was looking for and decided on these tyres. For me, a revelation. great in the snow and slush, dry pavement no problem. Very soft, comfortable, quiet. On wet roads seem slight whistle, but not tiring. the sets (second season ride), you can attempt to assess the "wetness" of asphalt. For the money - buy without hesitation. I would recommend.

I bought a month ago, because I had a weak year in the recording to show ... For now, the few km in the city mixed feelings. On the dry in highly plus temperature without reservation. When driving in a downpour unpleasant whistle at speeds over 70 Behaved just as Barum Polaris2 (whistle). Zabaczymy as the winter in the Giant Mountains, and write again. Regards Read more Collapse

I gave for all six, not to understate the average. Although it was impossible to test the tyres this year, in extreme conditions, it as much as I could - I tested. :) They are great. Several people have told me they are good as long as new, but it seems to me that as I will not be new (ie will zjeżdżone), it's probably time to throw away and buy another. Read more Collapse

I bought tyres about a month ago. I drove on them only 3000 km, and I'm pleasantly surprised. When cornering 'bite the pavement'. On the ice, without the slightest reservation. I drive around the city so I do not know how to behave in difficult conditions but for this price <812zl> there is no better new winter tyres. I would recommend. Read more Collapse

Tyres should be such that ;-) forget about them, or do not give a toll, and these are exactly the same. He drives even nicer than the summer Michelinach assumed in the Renault factory. Do not test their resistance, I expect just that dowiozą me safely from point A to point B in any ;-) autumn - winter conditions prevailing in the country in recent years. Read more Collapse

I bought tyres from this site and bows for a store here (two days and I had it at home). Yet there was extreme weather waruków, but the first wave of winter were doing well. They are quiet. Keeping the car stable. While maintaining an appropriate velocity we have control of the car. I bought it for the price Debica Frigo 2, so too much is not wondering. Read more Collapse

tyres recommendable. previously had such in golf III for 3 seasons and this also bought. car in the snow is like stuck on the ice it is known that only the spikes you are sure. overall I am happy. tyres made in france fakes and not Polish. be careful when buying it. Summer in the car as I bought it after 2 seasons is disposed of. generally recommended. Read more Collapse

Clincher passed my expectations. It is true that I ride on it recently, but during this period became known as a super versatile winter tyre, which I checked on all supported conditions. Previously, I would go to Debice Frigo Directional, but they even do not grow Firestonom heels. Overall score very positive and I would recommend it to all road users. Read more Collapse

Tyres safe and behave well in winter conditions (snow and slush). Hockey is a different matter, possibly moving into the icy hill that's the problem. Louder than summer tyres - Michelin. Inhibited very good and on dry, wet, snow - ABS too often goes into action. Possessed other winter tyres and they would definitely recommend in this price category Read more Collapse

Good tyre if you can not afford something of the highest quality, competitive price, good looks, within your price range / 178zł each / is a very reasonable choice. After the draw the attention of two things: a silent / if you have a suspension ok / and has excellent drivability / here on which I traveled Kleber already gets /. Generally recommended.

The tyre behaves very well in the snow. Running in the Snow is a pleasure, acceleration, and braking distances especially good. In this price range is excellent. Hockey is probably normal that it "bites" in the surface. In the summer I also Firestone, but that SZ 80 and also I'm very happy with my purchase. Anyone recommend this brand. Read more Collapse

In a nutshell. Not only that, I bought the cheapest of all the offers that have been free shipping. Massacre competitive price! Goods, contact and shipping speed Super League! I very strongly recommend this shop and the tyres that I bought here. I'll definitely return this year after a set of summer and possibly Randy will be a Firestony :) Read more Collapse

Met my expectations - rather good quality as the price factor. but everyone has to decide himself. I had different tyres and now I have another car, "strongly branded high-end" and happened to them I had a problem with beatings, balancing, etc. I do not think the more well-known brand that gave 100% certainty that it will be better :) Read more Collapse

For people with such a budget would definitely recommend. This is not ideal but good tyre at a good price. Tyres bought at the store. They were three months from the date of manufacture. I got it very quickly and as far as I remember did not pay extra for delivery. Now I look for summer 16 "if I can find something here probably also buy. Read more Collapse

Very good tyre, especially for the price. The first impression of driving in the snow was sensational. I'm just wondering on the durability of the tyres. Not measured accurately, but it seems that the tread wears out rather quickly. It can also wine this year, snowless winters and relatively high - for this time of year - temperature by.

I wondered how long the tyres well and chose to buy Firestone WINTERHAWK. Since the distance traveled on these tyrech is still small, I can not a fully evaluate, but so far excel sensational. I go to the rural-urban, these tyres excel in snow and ice as well as wet and dry conditions. The noise level is low. Super tyres for the price. Read more Collapse

Overall, a good tyre, but I have a feeling that in the wet and the snow should stick a little better. I find it difficult to compare with previous tyres that were already worn Michelin and these are of course a lot better. However, compared to Pirelli but Yaris is a little less stick (of course, it is difficult to compare different cars) Read more Collapse

Good tyre for the money. It should be quieter in dry conditions and a little harder to hold on loose snow, because sometimes it seemed falling into a skid and driving "in the air". In general, never buried in a snowdrift. Wearing little. In the future, I do not know whether or not I want to buy a different brand of tyre. But ... Read more Collapse

If it's normal that the temperature oscillating around 2 degrees in the wet, the tyres are performing worse than a year, it does not matter, but if not, I would definitely not recommend these tyres. The snow can be. Slush already worse. on dry braking too quickly lose grip. To sum up - there is nothing to get excited about this tyre. Read more Collapse

Very good tyre in its price category. Very good at driving in the snow, good drivability. Good grip on icy surfaces. Tyres do not wear out too quickly, uses them in the second season and still retain the same good properties. Rolling resistance and noise level at a decent level. Dry and wet surface (no snow) - also without reservation. Read more Collapse

The behavior of the tyre in the snow - great, I live in quite difficult conditions, I'm more than a kilometer dirt road odśnierzanej not to drive every day and yet never once stood, unless the fear of the bumper. On the ice a little bit worse, but this is just rubber. As for attrition so as to drive the tyre looks almost like new. Read more Collapse

the biggest plus is the wet pavement, rut rut does not latch on rails, packed snow - are better tyres, fluffy snow - super slush give advice, I would recommend the ice as ice, no snow on the ice, unless the spikes :) only in the sharp turns at high speed gives the impression understeer compared to the summer, but it's winter tyres Read more Collapse

Overall I am happy with this purchase. Tyres are used only in the winter season. The snow lead a decent and ice spikes would have to be known. Noisy at "decent" level. Overall I think that you can recommend to the buyer. You can definitely recommend the seller - fast trouble-free service, timely delivery. I would recommend. Read more Collapse

Very well holding the tyre, even in harsh winter conditions. And I know what I say, because I live in Podhale salting and snow removal and road services have a problem. However, I had no problems with driving on these tyres in harsh winter conditions. Good tyres at a good price, maybe a little loud, but you can not have everything. Read more Collapse

I drive on these tyres for the second season. A week ago I returned from Szczyrk where snow was the biggest for several years, and WINTERHOWKi regardless of the depth of snow stretched me out of any situation and without chains. Where other car "dancing" in the way I was able to overtake in full control of the vehicle. Read more Collapse

When you run over a distance, I think that the purchase of these tyres was correct in relation price / functionality. Very good performance on snow both wet and dry. At higher temperatures and wet a little "float" at higher speeds - be careful - but it is a feature of most of the winter tyres. Overall score - positive. Read more Collapse

Owner mostly in my car. With such a thin little rich in the winter snow and ice had little possibility of a specific test but what could have been a tyres performs better in urban environments as well. tyres quiet, only hear them with more rapid braking but it's probably normal. For this price tyres really recommendable. Read more Collapse

I installed tyres in October and compared with the original summer tyres (Michelin Primacy) are much more traction on wet roads. For this quiet and comfortable. Recently I drove 300km in a snowstorm and could not go as fast as I wanted. Poetry. No signs of wear after 10 000km. I would recommend. Good tyres for a decent price! Read more Collapse

tyres great, I have them for the second season and did not see any signs of wear, snow and slush revelation, hockey knows even the best tyre is ineffective, but I give 4, the appearance of the second season, they look like new, I strongly recommend that your next purchase winter tyres This will surely be a Firestone Winterhawk Read more Collapse

Appearance about the snow very fun to ride on them, a little worse on wet, ice is not enough that the tyre is doing great.

Encouraged by the relatively low price and the opinions of the users I decided to buy these tyres. After leaving the oponiarzy noticed the terribly easy to lose grip on the slightly wet asphalt!

Last year I took a chance by reading user reviews buying two tyres. The risk paid off because I'm happy with these tyres for the price, and just today I ordered two more.

I drove on these tyres the winter season 2010/2011. Very quiet and well stick to the road even in the fresh snow. Driving much of Warsaw, even when I did not have considerable rainfall to slow to 40 km / h, just drove normally. Taking into account the rather exorbitant price is probably for the next year also FIRESTONE. Read more Collapse

Nice tyre for the money, in the most OK, dry surface cool, even in summer, the rain perfect, nicely kept, throw the excess water, the snow in the Alps passed the test with 2 m of snow?, Hockey - you know less, there is no tyre that will not escape a little bit ... generally recommendable. Sam surprised vulcan price, ha! Read more Collapse

I think tyres are performing well below 5 * C. For pure heavy snow hold great car, slush, snow, water, very little effect on stopping distance and speed. For pure ice while maintaining sanity slippage is inevitable, and if it is quickly regain traction. Not poząbkowały, large tread loss after one season you can not see. Read more Collapse

Very stable, high thrust, the snow revelation-like tracks, very quiet-a pleasant surprise for the summer, great for soggy snow. A little worse on the ice but there is no perfect tyre on ice. I bought it after reading the reviews here and it did not disappoint. Recommend-a solid winter tyre for a very reasonable price. Read more Collapse

The snow, the acceleration, it's easy to lose grip and rotate the wheels in place, but when braking, it never slipped. At higher speeds, a clear "howling" tyres. There is not even a problem with the driveway under the snow-covered hill, passing by the way, an unknown car on tyres that could not drive. Read more Collapse

After the first season (driven about 6 000 km), it turned out that one tyre is damaged inside. Wheels already fail to Balance the.

Terrible judge in maintaining tyre on a slippery surface, zero traction on snow, especially wet, it keeps track, throwing the sides, but runs great - no tyre rubs off almost completely and is probably among others. explains her terrible behavior.
