The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

Dad put himself a VRX last year and praised them so much that I eventually gave up. Although our cars are generally of a different plan - he has a tiida, I have a polo. I am satisfied with the purchase, the price is adequate, it is easy to find on sale. They brake well, although I don’t always drive carefully - they never let me down)) Well, there were no precedents with the descent, there were no damage either, thanks to the Japanese quality.

Pros
  • price, braking, grip
Cons
  • all is good))

It is impossible to use, a bad product.

In my dimension, the choice was small. Analogues cost significantly more. But the price was the only joy. The tires are too hard for winter tires and feel like they are constantly oily, which makes traction very poor. Very often, either anti-slip or anti-lock braking systems work. It is especially dangerous to drive on this rubber at temperatures around zero, when in some places there is a slight frost on the road. The tire clearly lacks thin sipes and soft rubber. On loose snow, the tread…

Pros
  • The only one was in the right size for different-wide wheels
Cons
  • Road grip, handling

Soft and quiet rubber, which is not audible at all when driving at any speed. Tires go easily in the snow, they are not afraid of melting snow, there is no aquaplaning. Even on ice, if you follow the rules, a difficult situation will not arise. I did not notice any difference in the performance of rubber in positive temperatures or in frost. I appreciate them for excellent grip, braking and quick response to the steering wheel. Their only downside is the price.

Pros
  • soft, quiet, excellent grip and braking.
Cons
  • price.

Toyota Vitz 185/70 R14 climbed with a whistle. The car has become a few centimeters higher. Although the tire fitters doubted that it would fit. And what is noteworthy, the speedometer began to coincide with the readings of the navigator. and on the "native" tires overestimated by almost 10 km per hundred! this is not the first tire of this company, only positive impressions. at the same time, I drive twice as much as the average driver and can roll a set of wheels in a couple of seasons.

Pros
  • Quiet, sticky
Cons
  • in warm weather, we must remember that this is not a sports tire

Product is disappointing, not what it promises.

Friends, I'm shocked. And shocked by your feedback, where did you give this . amnu five on a five-point scale ! On ice, it doesn’t slow down at all, it constantly drifts in winter, twice already, the last one just today almost flew into an accident on the highway, and the speed was well, somewhere around 70 km / h, and even probably less, got into a small hole and a car let's carry all over the road, barely taxied. I had a previous car, Kia Rio, which was much worse in handling than the current

Pros
  • Japanese brand, durable enough
Cons
  • The tires are not designed for driving on ice at all!

Not my best purchase, you could have found something else.

To be honest, the rubber is strange. In non-winter weather, 0, +5, -5 behaves quite adequately, but on clean asphalt. In principle, on clean asphalt, you won’t find fault much. Is that very noisy compared to the Michelin A4. Yes, and Fulda was quieter for me. It’s impossible to drive in porridge - there’s really no acceleration or braking. She rakes the whole thing very, very badly. On the ice, the same story - it is felt that the car is hard to move. ABS works regularly. At least I…

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • - mediocre behavior on ice - mediocre behavior in loose snow - noisy

A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

Auto Astra H GTC front wheel drive r16. Acquired for this winter, because. last winter I suffered with hankook winter i * pike - just the most disgusting rubber. I tried Velcro for the first time. I won't sit on spikes anymore. SILENCE! The conclusion was that a good Velcro is definitely better than spikes from a low / medium price category. Perhaps she will lose the hacky R, but given the difference in price by almost 2 times, I think it’s not so critical. Now for the fact. At near-zero…

Pros
  • excellent handling at positive temperatures strong sidewall price water resistance quiet excellent tread pattern, rows well in loose snow / slush excellent braking and no drift on icy pavement
Cons
  • braking, accelerating and starting off on a roadway covered with a layer of ice

A good product, I advise you to try it.

I've been driving Blizzak for over 10 years. My size is 175*70*14, but before it was not running and I had to ride 185*65*14, but now I switched to my native size. The last ones were Revo 1, they were good tires with one drawback in my opinion - it blows on smooth ice at high turning angles. VRX 175 * 70 * 14 I liked the city and the "porridge", I wonder how they behave in the snow and in the cold . I'm satisfied with the purchase.

Pros
  • On snowy porridge keeps the course well. There is no noise. Cuts snow perfectly.
Cons
  • I haven't noticed yet, because term of operation - the first week.

Great for winter in large cities, if you do not go out into nature at this time. Very good on the track. In my opinion, this is the best friction clutch I have ridden and in all respects a very strong model at the moment (2022). Renault Fluence car, dimension 205/65R15. Has some pros: Good road holding and handling (compared to Kumho, Cordiant, Nordman clutches), excellent paddling in loose snow and handling on icy roads. Very quiet. I do not experience difficulties with driving on wet asphalt…

Didn't quite buy it well, had a little trouble using it.

The dimension 225/45 R17 is on a rear-wheel drive car. Before that, I had Bridgestone Blizzak Revo GZ tires and I was very pleased with the entire first season. For the second season, the handling became noticeably worse, but this winter, having put tires on for the 3rd time, I was completely disappointed, for the reason that a pair of wheels were worn out, almost at 0. Half of the winter suffered, I could not drive into the snow even in relatively small slides, it was hard to move from a…

Pros
  • Durable. Quiet. Good grip on asphalt. Almost the only one on sale in the middle of winter.
Cons
  • Behavior on ice and snow.

Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

This is my first Velcro, before that I rode amtel nordmaster and bridgestone ice cruser 5000 spikes. On asphalt, spikes are many times better (even if there is a thin crust of ice on it), in snow porridge it also feels better. Very quiet tire. I also want to note the main feature of non-studded tires, this is the absence of a sharp breakdown in emergency situations (the spikes are held to the last, and then abruptly torn off), this allows you to control the situation and drive the car. "Spike"…

Pros
  • Quiet on pavement, good price, made in Japan, I don’t want to go back to spikes, excellent handling.
Cons
  • It slows down worse on ice compared to spikes (it feels like the braking distance has grown by a third).

The purchase brought only positive emotions.

great tire. I do not consider it a disadvantage to increase the braking distance on ice and other nonsense. on ice, any tire will increase the stopping distance. If you don't travel out of town then this is for you. acceleration, braking at 5. does not pull anywhere. bought for 4500. uphill and in the snow rulitsya and climbs perfectly. happy with everything 100%

Pros
  • new model, silence in the cabin, consumption has not increased. soft, NO SPIKES
Cons
  • didn't notice

A month and a half after the purchase, I punctured a tire in a small hole. The store where I bought these wheels is no longer available (VRX 195/60 R15). I sent a request to the Bridgestone representative office where you can change the wheel in St. Petersburg under the "extended warranty". No answer. I ordered a new tire for my money. Wait 3 days (no one sells one tire in St. Petersburg, only a set). . I travel a lot around the region. I will never buy VRX again.

Pros
  • Good road holding
Cons
  • There is no strength, the "extended warranty" from bridgestone is a complete divorce.

The best thing I've ever used, a great item for everyone!

My size is R16 215/60. Running tires on asphalt until pores appear lasts at least 2500 km! Definitely the best tires in terms of price-quality ratio! Has pros: Strong sidewalls, as a result of which good handling and, accordingly, it is almost impossible to break a tire or get a hernia. Road holding is excellent. According to the test measurements of an authoritative publication, the best longitudinal grip on ice among competitors, and this is the main thing. Rowing on snowy porridge without…

I chose tires 225/55 R17 for the Opel Insignia turbo. Since I drive in Hong Kong slurry in winter, I don’t see much point in spikes. They are needed a maximum of 3-5 times per season, and they will constantly interfere and make noise. Chose between VRX, previous DM-V1, Continental ContiVikingContact 5 and Michelin X-Ice Xi3. According to the experience of driving in winters in Hong Kong, it is best to take an asymmetric Velcro, which is well controlled and adapted for ABS and ESP. I was…

Pros
  • Modern, asymmetrical Velcro. On dry pavement, the feeling is close to summer tires. Unlike the Continental, which is similar in pattern, there are no problems with rutting, which is a very serious problem for wide tires. Good price.
Cons
  • On wet pavement at a speed of 60 km / h, at +7 and relatively not sharp braking, abs. The same can be said about the traction control system. It is possible that the effect will disappear after running in the rubber for 500-700 km.

Excellent product, the best quality.

I took it on a Chevrolet Aveo and stayed on Vesta SV for the seventh season. The wear resistance is excellent. The main thing to get used to Velcro is to feel the rubber. Now we need to take a new one, the old one is worn out, I think, take something else for comparison. yes, the price we have in Sterlitamak is one carriage 185/65-15 3560, it’s not cheap, but it’s enough for 7 seasons with a margin. If you change it for summer time.

Pros
  • Quiet, comfortable, wear-resistant, well balanced, you can put a pattern without direction on both sides. I took a Japanese woman but 2022 does the current quality, I don’t know.
Cons
  • Rigid from -5 and below -15, generally dull, Rough asphalt feels, cracks, joints. At -20 I tried to push the lamellas apart with my fingers, it didn’t work out next to me stood “Kalina” in Viatti shod so she was softer. Floats in porridge.

Nice product, happy with my purchase and may buy again.

First time riding Velcro, before that there were IC5000 and Googyear UG 500 breeches. Riding style is calm. Car Kalina. Driving experience 10 years. During this autumn I rode from Kazakhstan (+10) to Hong Kong (-17). Particular attention to the movement, probably not only for those who ride Velcro, this is a transitional temperature from -5 to +5. The coating itself is slippery, but I got used to the rubber from the first braking. Bridgstone engineers were struck by directional stability and…

Pros
  • Unlike studded, it behaves absolutely predictably on any surface. Significantly reduced fuel consumption and decreased noise.
Cons
  • Well, rather, this is a specificity - when there is ice under the wheels, it definitely makes a noise, it creates a kind of acoustic bell - ice under the wheels. Changes properties when the temperature passes through 0 - perceptibly on the control.

Excellent product, the best quality.

I took myself non-studded tires specifically for city driving without noise in the cabin. Tires of good quality, on asphalt go smoothly. Even on ice, riding does not cause discomfort, they respond well to steering commands. On the snow, the road is kept just perfect, the brakes are very good. Completely satisfied with the tenacity. After the first winter, the tires look like new, they will last a long time.

Pros
  • Quiet, high quality, tenacious
Cons
  • Didn't find them

The product is completely satisfied, performs its functions.

Kia Cee'd car, tire size 205/55/R16, driving experience over 10 years, no previous experience with friction tires. First, general impressions: driving is comfortable, there is no constant noise from the spikes, fuel consumption is lower than when driving on spikes (slightly, but still). Departure all winter in Hong Kong and the Hong Kong region. I think the biggest advantage is that the behavior of these tires is absolutely predictable, if you don’t try to drive them in winter, like in summer…

Pros
  • Low noise, lower fuel consumption, no strict tire change dates
Cons
  • All the shortcomings are due to the design of the tire itself, more details in the comments

The price/quality ratio is great, I will buy again.

awesome tire! 245/50/18. Infiniti m37x sedan, four-wheel drive, 333l/s. on high-speed lines, with heavy braking, in uncleaned yards, at -20 and at +8, it showed its best side. satisfied with this product for all the money! Use it for its intended purpose, don't try to ride like in the summer, and you will feel that this Blizzak is playing for you)) Good luck everyone!

Pros
  • tenacious, quiet, do not notice the rut. on ice is quite worthy (if without fanaticism). 12/25/14 in the heaviest snowfall with 10 points in Hong Kong rowing in porridge is very impressive!
Cons
  • did not reveal.
