The quality is top notch and I recommend the product for purchase.

I chose tires 225/55 R17 for the Opel Insignia turbo. Since I drive in Hong Kong slurry in winter, I don’t see much point in spikes. They are needed a maximum of 3-5 times per season, and they will constantly interfere and make noise.
Chose between VRX, previous DM-V1, Continental ContiVikingContact 5 and Michelin X-Ice Xi3.
According to the experience of driving in winters in Hong Kong, it is best to take an asymmetric Velcro, which is well controlled and adapted for ABS and ESP.
I was already leaning towards ContiVikingContact 5, but I did not like the reviews on its behavior in a rut.

Pros

Modern, asymmetrical Velcro. On dry pavement, the feeling is close to summer tires. Unlike the Continental, which is similar in pattern, there are no problems with rutting, which is a very serious problem for wide tires. Good price.

Cons

On wet pavement at a speed of 60 km / h, at +7 and relatively not sharp braking, abs. The same can be said about the traction control system. It is possible that the effect will disappear after running in the rubber for 500-700 km.
