Firestone Winterhawk 2 EVO - User reviews

Translation

Previously, I used several years of winter tires Michelin. In comparison to them, holding a bit worse Firestone under dry conditions. On the other hand grip on snow and wet track seems to me at least as good. I bought them a little, despite the strange, unusual tread pattern, but it disappointed me.

It's time to change tires. Previous CONTINETAL no longer give advice in a typical winter conditions. When buying guided by the well-known brand and of course price. I did not want the tires "made in china" and I'm very happy with the choice. Winter conditions (sometimes extreme) not caused any problem. Snow in all possible options from the bulk to the slush did not cause any trouble which was a nice change from the previous "continentalowej" winter. Moving car on Witerhawk s not difficult, and braking gives you a sense of confidence. Good choice!

ADAC tests were right - great for snow tires. In extreme conditions really well kept. In dry conditions at temperatures below 5 degrees well kept, ABS rarely had to work. A problem arose when the temperature rose above 8 degrees. At higher speeds (około110 km / h) and tighter curves could behave unpredictably. But the worst behaved in the rain than 5 degrees. Practically every powerful braking ended up tripping ABS-u, and braking very lengthened. The cornering was often feel the front wheels skid. In terms of consumption of these tires are very nice surprised me. Despite the high temperatures this winter have really low wear.

Tires so far without much comment. Very well behave on snow and slush. On the ice-covered roadway driving is difficult, but every tire on the ice surface otherwise probably will not. Besides, it seems to me that it is quite noisy, both on the highway and in city driving.

I made just one season 2010/2011 on Firestone Winterhawk 2 EVO. In general the tyre is ok if taking the price under consideration. However, they have a bit problems with moving-off on snow. When I was driving back from my footbal training with my 3 friends we had a lot of problems to drive up-hill. I had problems with moving-off from traffic lights on Firestone Winterhawk 2 EVO as well. I drive about 10k / year. Besides, Firestone Winterhawk 2 EVO did not disappoint me in any other way. Now I bought myself a new car and I will put Uniroyal MS+66.

I drive on these tyres until this year, so hard for me to give any opinion.

When you run over the winter I am very pleased with these tyres. I had a few hard braking situations and always tyres have passed the exam. I recommend!

This year the winter was not too hard so I cannot really judge the quality of Firestone Winterhawk 2 EVO. Very good quality. Very low attriction. Behavior on snow and ice proper, however I think that my calm driving style had influence on that. I think that at this price Firestone Winterhawk EVO 2 is the best choice. You cannot notice any big difference.

Tyres were set up in the car Suzuki Splash. Ride on any terrain with the majority of the city. Tyres behaved completely przyzwoicie.Jazda moderate-car light and rather frail so you can not go crazy.
