Average purchase, there is something to complain about.

I wonder why no one writes who the manufacturer is and what the features of the tire are. After all, the same model on an SUV or a light one is a different thing. So I bought a 235/55 r18 with a reinforced sidewall, made in Romania in 2022. I put it on a Tiguan 2 . and went nuts from the noise. I must say right away that I ran in 500 km like a book. Then there was the road to Latvia and back - 1700 km. The rumble is such that I called in 2 times for service on the way (I thought the bearing). After I MADE THE SHUMMKO FLOOR AND AROK IN 3 LAYERS. BUT. IT DID NOT HELP. If suddenly one of the manufacturer's technologists reads the review, please learn from bitter experience, change the composition of the rubber. Wrong discomfort, which you do not expect from a premium tire!

Pros

The snow is g awesome. Very durable. Good grip on ice. It feels like it will last a very long time (over 26,000 km, the tread has not changed outwardly at all, it has lost only 4-5 spikes. Made in Romania.

Cons

Not sure about turns. Sooo noisy (I will describe in detail in the comments). Such discomfort is not expected from premium tires.

Its pros: quiet, spikes do not fly out, keeps on the road. Some cons: the spikes are short, the ice under the snow is not very catchy, although it can be no worse than the others
