Review on Yokohama Ice Guard IG65 235/45 R18 98T winter by Wiktor Barczuk ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Satisfied with the purchase one hundred percent, I recommend the product for everyone.

Before Yokogama, there was Nokian Hakkapeliitta 7 (205/60/R16), made in 2022. For 2 winters, they turned into scrap, there were no spikes left, and where it remained (these were units that did not fly off the wheel) it was ground to zero. They definitely didn’t drive on rubber both in summer and in winter)) The driving style in winter is calm . Why Hakkapeliitta 7 has such quality is not clear. Parents Golf 6 with Nokian Hakkapeliitta 5 (195/65/R15) - made in Finland, the 4th season will go, they are like new. Draw your own conclusions. Thanks to everyone who read the review, I will try to supplement. p. S Review about rubber in the dimension 205/60/R16, perhaps in other sizes it is not so good - it is possible.

Pros
  • It is operated on a front-wheel drive car, 180 hp, automatic. (parameters 205/60/R16) St. Petersburg and Leningrad region + Very quiet + Holds well in snow, on an icy road with snow, in rain with snow, and also in drizzle with a reagent + Strong sidewall, caught sponge pits a couple of times, no hernias ("thanks to the road workers of St. Petersburg") + It goes fine along the track, before that it was on the 2nd car in the Hankook Winter i * Pike RS W419 (185/65 / R14) family - everything is deplorable there, the sidewall is soft, the car walks, you need to constantly control the steering wheel, in the rut Hankook turned out to be very dangerous to demolition. + Unusually shaped spikes, so far nothing has flown out, although 1 review was below that they flew out in a month. This is clearly not true. Let's see what happens by the end of the season, while it's too early to draw conclusions regarding the reliability of the spike. + The price for the set turned out to be approx. 19000r. (size 205/60/R16) + Novelty, tires in stores are "fresh", not since 2022
Cons
  • Not found yet, but we can say for sure that on dry pavement it’s not great . Perhaps, if you experiment with pressure, something will change . downloaded 2.2
