Very high quality product, it's not the first time I bought it.

There are pluses from 9ki, there are minuses . let's see how it goes on

I supplement the review, the rating has been raised. The problem that was at the beginning is gone, excellent behavior in a rut. Further. I rolled tires for about 1500 km. Passed in total 17 thousand indicator 8 - i. E. excellent mileage, plus not a single spike fell out ! I have 225 55 17, 2 ton car, rear wheel drive. 5 trips to the flax region from Hong Kong, ice, snow, don’t care, like on asphalt, never a hint of demolition, even at high speeds (in the literal sense when you drive on ice on m11), 9ka suffered from demolition, even when it was new. Excellent tires. I advise everyone.

Pros

For the last 10 years I have been riding on Nokian spikes, so the comparison with previous generations. Departure for 5 seasons on 2 sets of 9s, I compare with it. 10 ka is much more comfortable than 9 ka, i. E. handles bumps better (all), good handling (not to be confused with directional stability) - i. E. turned the steering wheel and clearly, as on the fly, you turn on any surface (asphalt, snow, ice, it doesn’t matter). Consumption as in the summer Goodyear 1 in 1 is also a plus. I ran 1000 km calmly, now I have traveled 4000 km in total (city + highway) - the spikes are in place, the indicator 8 is in place, the car is 2 tons Mercedes, rear-wheel drive, 310 hp. Those. most likely, the wear resistance is higher than that of 9k, because on 9k, indicator 8 disappeared after 2022 km and the kit itself rolls to 0 after 27-29 tkm. Further, it is 100% quieter by 2-3 times than 9ka, i. E. There is noise, but it’s deaf there or something - I almost don’t hear it in a Mercedes at all .

Cons

And now the main disadvantage associated with the new "comfort" 9ki - it jumps like a ball! those. it springs just wildly - yes, it gives great comfort on bumps - but the track and any change in the roadway, rolls, etc. is just a disaster - at 9 ke I could let go of the steering wheel at a speed of 150 and just go straight, here at a speed of 90-100 I I hold it as best I can, I constantly catch the car - it’s impossible to drive for long distances - you get very tired . With tire pressure, everything is even (there are sensors in the car).
