Review on Yokohama Ice Guard IG60 225/60 R17 99Q winter by Adam Fido ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Quite good, but I expected more from it.

Installed in mid-November. Mazda 6 car, tire size 225/45/19. There was no snow yet, the tracks are clean, the temperature is around 5-7C. Immediately I was very surprised that the ABS began to work even with not the strongest braking and slippage during normal, in general, acceleration. Especially after the summer Bridge, this directly caused both anger at the tires and fear for oneself and the car. Used to, began to try to avoid sudden braking. With a decrease in temperature, the tire began to behave more predictably, but now I have the experience of driving on snowy roads and I can say that it has become even a little worse: on a small rut, where, apparently, the ice on the ruts is slightly rolled, a couple of times barely kept the car from skidding. In general, if I rewound time now, I would not buy tires myself and would not recommend it to anyone. More than 12 years experience in driving on non-studded tires. The last 8 years I went to Nokia, there were no such problems.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Road grip, trajectory instability
