Review on Gislaved Nord Frost 200 205/55 R16 94T winter by Danuta Skierska-Wiel ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Satisfied with the product, I recommend it to everyone.

I changed my shoes yesterday, so while the run-in is underway. First impressions - quiet for studded tires. After a couple of hundred I eat, in theory, it should become even quieter. At a temperature of about 3 for dry asphalt, it holds up well, but, as expected, is worse than the summer Michelin XM2. The reaction to the steering wheel on this surface in the near-zero zone is a little blurry, but one should not expect anything else from Scandinavian-type winter tires. Before that, I went to Hakka r2 and blizzak vrx. Compared to them, both are quieter. The bridge clings to dry asphalt a little better, Hakka is much worse. Hakka is a little more comfortable, due to the softness of the rubber and sidewall. The bridge is much inferior in comfort - I sold it because of the strong oakiness and the feeling that something broke in the suspension when driving through poor-quality coverage and pits. I'll ate my review as the cold weather sets in. 1. After the break it really became quieter. The front wheels are worn a little more than the rear. One of the front wheels is missing 1 stud. Hernia was not found. In general, I think that rubber fits well for the middle lane. Of the benefits: good grip on all types of surfaces, low noise level, spikes do not fall out with proper running in and an adequate price tag. Of the minuses: not outstanding performance on ice. 2. The second season has started on this set. A month after the tire change, I went for seasonal balancing, which showed that a slight runout appeared on all wheels. The master said that this is not very good, but for now you can ride.

Pros
  • well balanced low noise acceptable grip on dry pavement price quality
Cons
  • slight rumble from the tread on the run-in
