Review on Gislaved Nord Frost 200 205/55 R16 94T winter by Celina Pietrzak ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not all that bad, but there are minuses.

I skated the winter of 2022-2022 on this rubber. Region Hong Kong region + Hong Kong. focus car 3. I strained at every turn - you need to select the speed very accurately. In normal winter conditions (temperature -8, slightly uncleaned road) at a speed of 40 km / h, I was carried away to the oncoming lane, thanks to the minibus driver for orienting myself before me, otherwise my cart would be lost. As a result, all turns passed in a rally way, adding gas inside the turn. Thus, the spikes gnaw, the lamellas scatter the snow and are cleaned. I noticed that the rubber comes only with the XL index and perhaps some of the grip problems arise because of this. On a large heavy SUV, it may work differently. As a conclusion, I can advise tires to experienced, calm drivers who value comfort, because. analogues in silence in the cabin in the presence of spikes will be difficult to find.

Pros
  • Quiet! Spikes can only be heard on bad asphalt. On a normal road, the noise is like from ordinary rubber. For one season, wear is minimal, all spikes are in place.
Cons
  • Be carefull! Rubber does not hold lateral loads at all, i. E. in a gentle turn you are carried away if there is not absolutely clean dry asphalt under the wheels, which is a rarity in winter. If there is snow under the wheels, the lamellas instantly clog and you are again out of control.
