Review on Gislaved Nord Frost 200 205/55 R16 94T winter by Barbara Budna ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

Before that, there was Goodyear Velcro, so I can’t compare it with other studded ones. Acceleration and steering on Gislaved are clearly better, the snowy parapet between the rows used to always pass without gas, but now, on the contrary, I am on the gas. I drive mostly on a cleared track, so I can’t say how it is in deep snow or on ice. I can only say that at high speed it slows down as long as Velcro. After Velcro, the clatter of the spikes is certainly not familiar, but what can you do, the manufacturer already planted the spikes in special recesses so that they clatter less and remove excess snow. In general, a tire with a history used to be an expensive Continental and it pleases. Wear over the winter is almost zero, but here most likely my careful driving is to blame. It became a little softer, but this is most likely due to the fact that I chose a larger profile. If you just drive a car, then these tires will be just right.

Pros
  • When accelerating, it clings well, does not blow away during a sharp turn, the spikes do not crumble
Cons
  • After Velcro, the clatter of spikes is unusual, it slows down as long as Velcro
