Review on Viatti Brina V-521 215/60 R16 95T winter by Micha Jelonek ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good product for me, no problems at all.

For the first time I decided to try "Velcro", earlier for many years I went only on "thorns", various manufacturers, both domestic and foreign. To be honest, I was a little afraid, there was doubt that Velcro was the right decision, but the opinion of friends who had been using Velcro for a long time overpowered me. Bought, shod in not new stamps. Surprisingly, the tires were not crooked and slanting, they hung a little weights. At first, I drove carefully, but then confidence came after a week of pure ice, when I had to drive every day both around the city and on the highway, and I'm honestly surprised and not disappointed! The rubber is soft even at -27, tenacious on any surface, in ice it proved to be amazing! I live in a village, we don’t clean snow in winter. So, it rides in the snow like a tank, never slipped anywhere. Rubber is not noisy, even very quiet. On any surface it is controlled well, it also slows down quite well. I think it's a very successful model. Reminds me a bit of Continental. I don’t regret that I bought Velcro, now I think only Velcro, no spikes, because I didn’t notice a difference in driving on any surface, and there is practically no noise in the cabin, like in summer in terms of noise, and gasoline consumption is much less. Let's see what happens next and how much rubber will last. Additions after 3 seasons of operation: completely satisfied with the rubber. I don't have any negative comments about her. Rubber is excellent, without exaggeration! It's been 4 seasons since I rode this Velcro. I have never regretted purchasing this rubber, I have never strained on the road, no matter what surface, whatever weather I left - this rubber instills confidence on the road! Without a doubt, this is so far the top in my personal rating of winter tires that I have ever used, and the first among Velcro. Depreciation for 4 seasons and 20 - 22 thousand km. operation is not even noticeable, it also makes me very happy, I think for another 3 seasons at least it will be enough. Outwardly, for some reason, it does not age, it also pleases.

Pros
  • Soft even at -27, quiet, wear-resistant, tenacious on any surface, even in ice.
Cons
  • I didn't notice any flaws, the tires are excellent!
