Barum POLARIS 2 - User reviews

Sort:
Pablos
1.8

Translation

very loud on both dry and wet pavement - a small hill and the car did not leave. Frigo had once and is 100 times better

Poor tyre, wet braking tragic. Sold after one season. Nice only on the snow. Loud and very comfortable. Above 90 km / h the car starts to float lightly on the chewing. Really only suitable for a quiet trip to the top of the packed snow. For use in the winter is not recommended.

Translation

Rather slick tyre with no comparison with previously used. Old tyres and almost "bald" better behaved than the new August Barum - sad but true (the former is Cooper - they were great - now I know it well worth the price)

Translation

The tyre is suitable for slow driving on snow and only ktyresm this. As someone want to go 60 km / h to ski in the mountains it will be is a great choice. Otherwise, I would not recommend this tyre. Polaris 2 has a very poor performance on dry roads. Tread cord is very soft, so much of the dynamic driving causes excessive tilting of the car. Very dangerous and unpredictable behavior while positive temp 10 and dry asphalt - soft cord and soft rubber = tragedy. In Poland kopnym snow driving on a trip from the parking lot and ride the mountain serpentine, and a few days in the winter when road builders snowdrift. The other days we go after rozjezdzonym slush and dry asphalt and it is often not slower than in the summer and for that the tyre simply is not suitable!

Barumki bought in November. What was our surprise when the dry conditions began to be switched on ABS. Then came the rain and it was even worse. Ludzilismy will come in August with the lower temperatures and snow then it will be better. Not true. Now we have an attack of winter. Temperatures at -20 and more. Snow fell. Massacre. It is better to leave the car in the garage. On these tyres can not be going! Similarly, I think it is the summer. The car is tylnonapedowe - with the addition of a little gas escapes back immediately. Taczy car when braking in front of each other ABS'em enabled. Minimum grip. Just a nightmare. No comparisons August Sava performs better Eskomo S3 or Semperit Top-Grip. No more Barum. Next Goodyear tyres only.
