Kormoran Snow 215/55 R18 99 winter Review

Having skated for many seasons both on spikes (Cordiant Sno-Max, Nordman 5, Sava Eskimo Stud) and Velcro (Nordman RS) - I realized that 99% of the time in winter I drive in the city on asphalt. Wet, with reagents and snow, or generally dry in good weather. Accordingly, with the next choice of rubber for a new car - for crawling from a traffic light to a traffic light, the requirements for it were simple for me - smooth and quiet, sharpened more for asphalt. I decided to try this one on the…

In the warm winter of 2022 in Hong Kong, they showed themselves perfectly. But for such warm winters, I would recommend tires with a less "evil" tread and a more resistant side

Conclusion: at what price did I take it 4k in my dimension, at the time of writing the review it was already almost 8k - super! Moreover, I use it almost like an all-weather, because. I go in winter from minus 20 to plus 20, and for this it is just right. Now maybe China offers something interesting, you can search. And if you can't find it, you can take this one.

I am currently in my second year. A skid in the snow is the same as one on spikes. It's not tough to pull off a horrible deed; it just sort of...happens.

When employing rubber, only pleasant feelings are experienced, and great road conditions are maintained when rowing. It is also good in the rain; the only difference is that the braking path is a little longer. On ice, it maintains a five-point lead over the competition. The tread pattern is FANTASTIC in quality!

Deliberating on this purchase.Rubber is good in the city on a well-cleaned road As soon as you drive away from the city, everyone arrived, it's scary to move

Still, it is better to choose with more frequent lamellas. My experiments are over with this manufacturer, I will try others. Pros below: In normal Hong Kong situations, it’s not bad at all (adequate snowfall, snow between rows, sleet) is not noisy. Its cons: In the heaviest snowfall (February 2022), deep snow completely failed, the Opel Astra J.

There is no snow yet, I can’t say anything about its main properties. But I got up perfectly, there are few weights. Does not make noise, behaves adequately and predictably on a wet surface

Cheaper than "Brand", but rows powerfully in the snow. It is useless on clear ice, just like leaving the parking lot in the snowfall of 2022 - you need to clean the driveway.

For everyday street driving, I find the tires to be satisfactory. The price and the lack of a tank-like sensation on Nokian and Gislaved are major drawbacks. Over the past two decades, I've tried a wide variety of rubbers, and this one is on par with the most popular ones. However, after only two or three years of use, cheap tires' fundamental flaw becomes apparent: severe frost and microcracks on the tread. I would still go for something with a stronger sidewall if I were driving a huge…

I drive a Kormoran, only in the summer, already the 2nd season, all the rules, no complaints, except for noise. I chose Velcro for two reasons: on the advice of friends, and before that I went with Velcro from another manufacturer. So I didn’t really want to switch to spikes, including because of the snowless winter last year, I rode on Velcro quite well and didn’t worry about the loss of spikes on the pavement) Rubber in the background in the photo))

According to subjective feelings, in all respects it is better than the most publicized rubber we have, the cost is 2 times higher (the name is not correct to say). I think Kormoran is made by Michelin's daughter using parental technologies, reliable information and not a publicity stunt. Some pros: Low price for good quality. Excellent paddling in the snow. Quiet. Stable on slippery roads. Cons: Have not found. Not ideal on icy crust, but that can be said for any non-studded tire.

With its pros: Good tires, not noisy, nice to ride. On the highway and in the city everything is ok Different cons: Not very durable, you need to drive carefully on the pits Not so good on ice.

I bought a set for my wife on a VW POLO. The price was competitive and I liked the pattern. The first winter it somehow held and slowed down, although it was immediately noisy and tough (they dropped the pressure to 1.8 to make it softer). After 2-3 mm of the tread was worn out on ice or icy and hard snow, it stopped holding at all, from the word "absolutely". POLO from a place could not call in at the dacha on a small dump of hard snow with crust, 5-6 cm high, it just stood and skidded. After…

235/45/18 front wheel drive. I ride for about a month, I found snow, rain, ice and dry weather in minus and plus. In general, I am satisfied with the rubber, there is a grip in the snow, if you don’t be too zealous, then there will be no demolitions. Someone wrote about the noise, not critical, it makes no more noise than any other cheap and expensive rubber. You can and should take it, the best alternative to Chinese crafts. Whoever says "China now knows how to do" China knew how and knows…

The budget for tires was limited (up to 15 thousand), the choice was between the Chinese Triangle and Kormoran. I began to read reviews on the market, knowing that reviews can be cheated, I decided to ask the opinion of people who sold used ones. rubber on the site of free ads. (I immediately warned them that I would take a new one) One and all said that the rubber is good, not noisy and wear-resistant. I'll add a review after a year.

Good tires for the money (for a city with clean roads, similar in properties to the euro winter). Softness can be attributed to strange moments. On the one hand, it is soft, very small knocks pass very well, but it happens when it suddenly works out very similar bumps hard. Serbs under the control of Michelin so far I believe more than China. The second time I would not take it, I would add it and take something more wintery, also without spikes. Jaguar xf 235 55 17

Normal tires in all respects. The Hong Kong winter of 2022 withstood perfectly, I did not observe any special drifts. Plain Velcro.

So, almost 4 months have passed since the purchase and installation of the rubber! Initially well balanced. During this time, there was dry asphalt, and rain, and snow, and slush, and ice. On all these surfaces, the rubber performed very well. It feels confident on asphalt, even a hint of aquaplaning in the rain, snow and slush is beyond praise, on ice, like all Velcro, it is a little uncertain, but predictable enough, unless of course you drive wisely. There were no cuts or punctures. In terms

Still, it is better to choose with more frequent lamellas. My experiments are over with this manufacturer, I will try others.
