Review on Viatti Bosco AT V-237 215/65 R16 98H summer by Micha Zikowski ᠌

Car Sportage 3 SL, set the size 225/65R17. The choice was between this rubber and Maxxis Bravo 771. I chose Viatti primarily because of the lower cost. the price of the Chinese (albeit of high quality) is already confidently approaching the cost of the same Geolanders, and the budget was very limited. I installed the tires the other day just before the bitter cold and ice in Hong Kong. At the tire fitting, the employees were upset, they said that the rubber was about nothing - curved, oblique, hard, noisy, poorly balanced, warms up slowly, etc. Having driven just a few days, having rolled about 200-300 km, I can say that, as for me, the tires are very decent. Especially for your money. It rides very confidently on a dry road, does not feel the rut, is not subject to hydroplaning, rushing like it is on rails. The weather allowed us to test the tires in a rather extreme mode. New, unrolled tires on ice and in snow at sub-zero temperatures proved to be very predictable. On ice it slows down quite confidently, it rides on snow no worse than Velcro, it sweeps snow porridge on the road at a speed of 60-70 km into a light one and rides like on a dry road. I was pleasantly surprised by this behavior of a fairly cheap rubber. To be honest, I would argue about her belonging to the AT segment and about silence. Yes, it has a rather large tread, but it has a complete absence of side lugs, and the tread itself cannot be called off-road. And it seemed to me noisier than winter Velcro . The same, as for me, is the same supposedly AT protector. In general, I, so far, am satisfied with the rubber, despite the negative reviews of the tire fitting masters. For your money, the option is very suitable. By the way, according to balancing, on average 20-30 grams, on one wheel it was 75.
