Translation

When you purchase this tire unfortunately the price was for me very important but I regret it. The tire is very poor. In the first year of operation Approx. Very quiet, similar behavior as the summer on dry and wet roads. Use the second year in a tire wears down not hard but handling this tragedy. Like it was made of plastic. Do not hold or in slush or on wet or snow kopnym. Out of the hole or slightly icy driveway virtually impossible. On the corner is losing traction. Fear to go on tour. It has a very old profile. She grabs only bacon and it badly. The only conditions for this tire is heavily compacted snow where it can be a little "bite" into the substrate. Departure by car to the mountains or snow-covered area is sparsely guarantee dig cars and other surprises.

good tires for rain and discreet on 'dry (at least for y), but it still remains to be seen in the snow.

Tires at first glance, but once the great vehicle at a speed of over 100 km / h bring the vehicle to vibrate, I thought it was something to do with the vehicle but drove the diagnostic path and it is OK I changed the tires and everything subsided.

Uses conductor runs since the winter, as well as about 5 thousand miles and I can say is that the tire very loud compared to polarisów eg 3 or hankookow. Very poor własciwosi riding on wet snow tires very tow and slide and much can hear above 90 km / h. Uses them in a Renault Clio 1.2 tce curling up to 125 horses and 180 nm and the previous polarisy give better advice, If someone is looking for tires mainly for city driving it will be okay. Did I would buy again? Probably not. Yours

Tires excellent appearance, price, effectiveness under different conditions, and most of all a nice surprise virtually inaudible behavior on different types of asphalt - practically there is no difference between summer tires. And precisely because of their construction that I feared the most, and there really nice disappointment. Really highly recommended.
