Translation

I do not recommend. I buried in the snow with which all were moving normally. About reloaded with mud forget. Fight for every cm. The tread pattern like ok but does not work like a soft rubber and is doing much worse than NEXEN WH2. Tires worked in Podhale so the top is not recommended. Maybe the town ok but not for heavier conditions.

Barum Polaris 3 makes the car swerve in fast turns (light ones) at speeds above 80 MPH. As for me, it's too soft and flexible. It should be harder. I used Continentals before and such problem was absent.

I think Barum Polaris 3 are a bit too hard as for winter tyres. I have Debica tyres on my second car and they behave much better. I regret I didn't buy something else.

I had to exchange one tyre from my set 3 times as a "balloon" formed on it. I almost got killed by it on the motorway. They're horrible. Barum Polaris 3 can do well for half a year, and then somthing strange happend to them, like they lose pressure.

Many tyre brands I had the pleasure to test due to the fact that I drive professionally. Unfortunately, when it comes to the handling on the snow I can not boast the Barum Polaris 3. After 2 seasons the Barum Polaris 3 tyres harden to stone and had to throw them away despite the high tread! When Michelin Xice after 6 years, slashed the snow like a knife .. This is my opinion, the choice is yours.
