Yokohama Ice Guard IG50 215/50 R17 99Q winter Review

The quality is great, and I couldn't be happier with my decision to install these tires on my Nissan Almera in that year. I have never purchased tires from this particular firm before, but if I am being completely honest, I cannot say that I was let down by them. Below are some advantages: They performed admirably on the track despite the blizzard, holding on with a grip that was comparable to that of spikes. Even if the ice on 4 is fairly predictable and does not cause skidding, I still walk…

The warehouse workers provided tires that were 20 years old. I asked them to check tires that were 21 years old, and they produced tires that were 21 years old.

I got the R14 for free because I live somewhere with a mild winter, and while it's fine to ride in the rain and ice (-12), you shouldn't try to speed up on snow porridge with those Velcro. It's loud on the sidewalk, but this is a grant; other machines feature superior soundproofing and allow for a more peaceful ride.

For 2780 with free tire fitting (according to the "VSHINAKH" promotion), naturally the Japanese are better than any Cordians, Belshins and Chinese !

Copes with its task well, braking on these tires in snow and light ice is safe. In the snow porridge taxis clearly. There is a noise, like cats scratching with their claws, on dry pavement.

Excellent tires for an everyday car, the operation of which is in the city and on the highway. Rubber is just super, excellent road holding, very soft and durable.

Different pros: Soft rubber, does not tan in the cold, wear-resistant (in my case, 6 seasons (annual rolling 18-20 t. Km. )), excellent braking, nice price Different cons: there is lateral drift, unlike asymmetric, but not critical

As for "rutting", this is a problem with all narrow tires, so this brand should not be attributed to this. You can’t climb a steep hill in the mud (I checked it on November 4), but this is also inherent in all small tires (r14), so this is not a disadvantage. Its pros: The price, in principle, saves in winter, although I have not seen strong winters in the south. The main thing is to climb the hill, on all-weather I could only leave the yard with acceleration, and even then not always. And I…

This is not the newest model, as far as I am aware, but they are tires that have stood the test of time. I purchased them this year. She has a wonderful grasp on the situation, and the dreadful weather in November has nothing to do with her. The behavior of the city is flawless and completely predictable; it is neither quiet nor boisterous. So long as everything is to my liking

Excellent tires, I took Norman RS as a replacement. Compared to it, it is less noisy and holds the road better. If there is at least something on top of the ice, it will catch on. On a strong porridge, it generally behaves perfectly.

I will break all your stereotypes) I am very upset with these tires! A little prelude, before that I drove Hakkapeliita R , Pirelli Ice Zero . Initially seduced by Japanese production and price. So, when installing tires on a car and driving on new dry asphalt, the tires have a buzz. They hold the road dry and wet perfectly, but as soon as snow porridge appears, the tires begin to fail to cope with its removal, aisle is a dangerous topic for these tires. My car is rear driven and the car…

I chose Velcro for myself, since we still need to find snow in winter. Very quiet rubber, besides, it has minimal wear. Grip on dry and wet asphalt is good on it, it also keeps confidently on ice.

Whoever says that linden is not for winter, he either didn’t drive it, or doesn’t know how :) I have been driving for 10 years and always in linden in winter. Their patency is sometimes better than on spikes, but in general they are no worse. Specifically, I took these tires last year, the previous ones were of a different company and for 2 years they wore out normally, plus the cord climbed, they didn’t like it.

If you drive along a track (on asphalt), it feels like you are driving on rails to get out you need to put effort on the steering wheel, but you understand that you spin harder and fly out into the next row. From this flew into a ditch through the oncoming lane at a speed of 90 on wet pavement, the temperature was +5. All the cars were intact. For the city, it’s suitable for the highway.

Before that, I went to Yokohama IG20, 5 seasons (it’s a pity that they don’t produce it anymore), so I’ll compare it with it: The rubber is soft, silent, but when compared with the IG20, it behaves a little insecurely on ice (the rear sometimes throws a little) in the time when 20ka was on rails. But otherwise, the usual Yokohama Velcro, like everything else, rides normally in snow, porridge, water, you need to get used to it on bare ice.

I bought it while the price is decent, winter will come and I will describe everything in full After two months of winter: Quite good grip considering that 95% of the time on the roads is more or less clean or salted. Of course, in the first snow, you had to drive carefully, but on such days, the spikes will not help. They certainly increase consumption, maybe by 1 liter approximately. I like it a lot more than spikes (I rode both), no problems with braking, but no noise! And you can also go to

Different pros: The difference between the IG50 Plus and the IG50 is the use of an "advanced rubber compound" that allows for longer tire life. With its cons: Due to the "softness" of the rubber, there is a little "storm" in the rut

Production 2022. Inside the city, on cleared roads, you can drive in summer driving style. Wade through fresh loose snow is also not a problem. When ice crusts and packed snow appear, it is better to observe the speed limit and a careful driving style. Spikes in this regard were an order of magnitude better and predictable. Pros below: Perfect for driving inside metropolitan areas. Soft and quiet. Works well in thick snow. With its cons: It clings poorly to ice crusts and packed snow during…

During the winter season, the city has only a couple of days a year when you can experience problems (freezing rain, for example). The rest of the time it behaves appropriately. There is no desire to experiment with the transition to another linden or spikes. Since the rubber is soft, you may not immediately feel that the wheel has flattened, especially in the snow. This should be monitored more closely than on summer tires. Once there was such a precedent that the wheel was slowly lowered due…

Its pros: The ride is comfortable, it enters confidently into turns on the snow, in general it moves perfectly on the snow. My husband liked it too, now he wants to put the same on his car) Different cons: We only regret that we didn’t buy 2 sets at once, we would know that such a cool
