Perfect product for any user!

Used size 215/70/R16 100T SUV on Renault Duster 2.0 4x4 since autumn 2022. No problems.
I will ate the review after the end of the 1st season of this set of tires.
(Before that, on Logan, in size 195/65/R15 91T XL, skated for 1.5 seasons, I really liked the tires, good for front-wheel drive, I didn’t get stuck already.)
It balances well, light tires, regular pressure of 2 kg, spikes and now everything is in place (I looked at the lift), made in Germany.
Mileage on the Duster in this size is 3500 km. Those who use less than 65% tread height in 2022 write about side cuts and hernias.
But car manufacturers and their advertising lobby are to blame for this - the tendency to put huge disks on all classes of cars lately, like we have autobahns all around and roads without surprises.
Fully justifies the name - "Arctic" for use in the Arctic.

Pros

The first 50 km you ride like on "claws", the spikes click on the dry. Tread noise like from a gear for the first 500 km with a decrease to 1000 km of run. The spikes fall into place and you can’t hear them anymore, like from new. Confidence and tenacity of rubber appears closer than 250 km. Excellent road holding, good directional stability, rolling, start from a standstill in the ice hill. Now it is quiet, it releases spikes when braking, you can hear it right away. On snowy porridge, excellent cross-country ability, leaving the rut is no problem. Fresh deep snow, ice, very comfortable. I recommend. (I used this on Logan, the same driving experience.)
