Tires are fulfilling their role. Do not make problems during operation. A big minus is the appearance of the tire - no protective bead.

Tires recommendable, it is true there was a snowy winter so I did not check them in the snow.

One tire repaired - the invasion of the nail. Overall a good value for pretty good price.

I was using Firestone Winterhawk 3 tyres last winter, but it so happened that there were almost no snow in the area. During last 3 seasons I was using refurbished tyres which weren't much of a compare to these so no disappointment there. The wet grip on curves is peculiar. You can loose the grip sometimes and then immediately regain it if you do. Another good thing is that you won't really feel any road bumps and it's quiet.Unfortunately it wears quite quick but to be honest i'm not a slow driver so that was to be expected especially with my powerful engine. Durability of the tyre i bought my wife was better (those were Nokians) although she drives less. My tyre size is 185/60/15, driving the Fiat Bravo 147bhp.

Tyres so-so, and the snow rather very poor. Old Dunlopy in another car in the deeper snow give advice, and they rather lime ... At a speed of 50-60 km / h, so the most frequently used gently moaning. Otherwise silent interval

Translation

Tire loses traction on wet, the traction and cornering. ESP ABS often intervenes. 2014/15 snow almost gone so do not judge. New tire 1 season, I'm disappointed. The only advantage is that it is really quiet, rest no revelations.
