Review on Toyo Observe G3-Ice 285/60 R18 120T winter by Bogusawa Juraszek ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

An ideal product for any type of consumer.

Skoda Rapid car. I compare with the old Velcro Nordman RS with 70% wear. I bought it a month ago and drove about 1500 km. The first thing that I noticed after the change was a smooth drift on corners, it is always there on dry pavement and on snow, but completely predictable. The old Velcro held the trajectory more clearly, but if it swerved on a turn, it was unexpected and abrupt. It's the same with moving in a straight line - there is some kind of wadding. But on slippery and snowy roads, I feel MUCH more confident. The slippage at the start almost disappeared (in an adequate mode, of course), the ABS practically does not work. I specially drove into snowdrifts - it rows steadily) Where the Velcro slipped in full, this one slowly, but goes. So I recommend to buy if in doubt. April 2022 I drove this tire for 3 seasons and about 25t km of net mileage. The rest of the tread is very good ~6-7mm almost like new! I counted on the spikes on purpose, from 1 to 4 spikes on each tire flew out, which is just an excellent result. I drive carefully. Of the minuses, for the second season I put on shoes after storage and felt vibration after 90 km / h. I thought the wheels . I changed the wheels, but the vibration didn’t go away (Then I sinned on the suspension, but when I changed my shoes back for the summer, the vibration disappeared. In general, the vibration is not strong and I rarely drive more than 90 in winter, so I left for two more seasons with vibration Moreover, at the tire fitting, everything is balanced normally, it doesn’t walk, and you can’t even tell which tire it is connected with, but it’s a fact! Nevertheless, I can safely recommend these tires. I liked it!

Pros
  • Price, snow and ice flotation, fairly quiet for studs
Cons
  • smooth cornering April 2022 after summer storage for the second season? led the cord? Vibration started at speeds above 90 km/h.
