UNFORTUNATELY I have been tempted positive opniami for this tyre. In my opinion, this tyre is completely unsuitable for snow and slush. It is slippery and unstable. On a dry road can be.

Tires very hard for winter tires, poorly cushioned inequality. One of the four tires proved to be defective at the factory, which unfortunately is not subject to the complaint, the tire firmly pulls by a manufacturing defect

The tire FALKEN have me very pleasantly surprised, just bought. I was able to test them in the snow, frost, mud and steep slopes. In the above-mentioned weather conditions they cope well and therefore are still very quiet. [I have summer tires from Fulda and louder]. Very reasonable price for the high quality. When it comes to the resistance, I can evaluate only after the winter season.

I bought these tyres under the influence of opinions of others but this was the biggest my mistake. probably some sheep here pr-year issue opinie.Moje Nokia behave better in the snow. Cash match thrown into the snow. I do not recommend. Auto goes on non-stop and I Touran ESP in 2008.

I drive a Skoda Octavia 1.9 and for a long time I was could not decide to buy winter tires. Seller persuaded me really, to buy the Hawks, to the end of the conversation, I was not convinced to buy the tires of the same brand - but made me do the annual insurance led to mechanical damage and the origin of the goods for sale. The tire is produced only in Japan, which is a big plus for me. When it comes to the driving impression, I am very pleasantly surprised. Car has good handling in the curves, quiet, comfortable with very good grip in the braking.

I do not know where these high opinions come from? 4x4 auto on those with a bit of fresh slush or snow is dancing along the way as if it had slicks fitted! Failure! Today I went back to the old Michelin Alpin (before the new arrive), and I breathed with a sigh of relief!

Last year I risked and have purchased these tires for my Ford Focus. In my opinion, this is one of the better tires. Excellent on the wet and on slush. A little worse for the snow (is better for snow Debica Frigo2 is). It's really quiet (I used Debica, Pirelli, Michelin and Barum and is best). The price only deters.

In this price range is the absolute hit. I before buying a lot of tires for my SUV Suzuki Grand Vitara reviewed in 2010 and the tire has caught my attention. The tire I have the winter from the beginning until today, March 2012 used, including a stay in the mountains in a very snowy period and can say: no problems. Of course, when braking on ice any tire problems, but thanks to ABS system I've accidents avoided! Recommended!

In my opinion, one of the best winter tires in terms of the behavior on the road, without snow, said while the snow is excellent. When I on tires 5000 km. drove in the winter season on wet and dry roads, I've found that is virtually impossible to consume. I have a comparison with the Snowsport Pirelli and Michelin (can not remember the model) made and I can certainly recommend Hawks as the better tires. Comparable performance on snow, but on dry and wet conditions is best between expensive branded goods. With these tires I drive in winter 100% safe. I Drive, where I want to and do not be afraid to curves, etc. Once I abnutze summer tires (Uniroyal RainSport2), I buy certainly Hawks for the summer a friend goes with these tires already third year (summer + winter), drives certainly 2 years, because these tires are not much worn. In summary, better tires so cheap price you will not find. I recommend.
