Eight years of experience behind the wheel. Automobile model Sportage 3 with front wheel drive. In the past, I've owned cars, but I never carried a shovel in the trunk as I drove. Recently, though, I decided to change that. Now, with regard to the transition during the very first winter. Because of the close proximity in cost of Pirreli Ice Zero and this rubber, I debated between the two for a considerable amount of time. I should not have taken this piece of rubber. I've had a Pirreli Ice Zero in the past on a Lancer, and I've never gotten stuck in the spots that I'm now terrified to travel. However, the Sportage is 700 kilograms heavier than the Lancer, so MAYBE that's the case! It's possible that it will behave the same or relatively the same way on other Sportage tires (and comparable ones on the front-wheel drive) in these kinds of areas. This is my first review, but I felt it important to share it with others since I don't understand why rubber with such a good rating does not leave almost on level ground. I hope someone can provide some light on this for me. There are not many photographs taken at the location where someone was once stuck. Spread. When I drove backwards into the snow (exactly in the same rut where another car was standing), there were times when the front wheels, which were nearly on rolled snow, slipped and I was unable to get the car out of the snow.
