Prior to that, I drove off for two winters, there was practically no snow, it showed itself well on wet roads and dry pavement, the spikes remained intact, did not wear out, did not break off. This winter, the potential of this rubber was fully revealed, I drove where everyone was standing, it doesn’t dig in the snow, ice is not a problem at all, on fresh snow under which the ice does not slip. I am very pleased with the rubber, I move to 185 / 60R15, Foltz polo.

I bought it after I couldn't brake urgently at 100m on Velcro on an icy highway from 60 km/h. I've run into similar situations a couple of times on these tires without incident. With Velcro, sometimes I could not drive up hills at low speeds. These tires solved the problem completely. Car Ford Fiesta 2022, R15, mechanics. Got pros: Controllability! There will be no miracles, on ice, as you will not drive on clean summer asphalt, but there is real control over braking. Its cons: They make a…

175/70R13. Bought to replace Gislaved, which was long overdue for retirement. From the very first meters, it became clear that this rubber is many times noisier - starting from 20 km / h, a rumble appears (not the noise of spikes, but a rumble), which intensifies as it accelerates. At 80 km / h, the rumble is like in a bomber from the Second World War. Turn on a documentary about the Great Patriotic War, find the moment where the bombers are flying - just such a rumble from this rubber) Quieter

In general, I still recommend it. At the time of writing, all the spikes are still in place. Has some pros: So in order. My car is VAZ2114. I put the tires on 09/20/2022, that is, for some time I drove on asphalt at a temperature of about zero degrees. At the time of writing the review, I traveled about 9000 km (work as a driver in my car and a part-time job in a taxi). On the positive side, it really keeps very well on the ice, I was especially pleased with the start up the hill on the ice…

Starter rubber. I skated on it last winter, zero wear! The thorn did not fall out, it seems, none. Yes, it’s hard, but I personally like it more, and deliberately didn’t want to take soft ones. As for the clutch, I will say this - three times I got into almost emergency situations, when only spikes saved me on the ice. I saw how they flew into the bump stop in front of me (So I put pluses to the Japanese for safety and durability.

I have a fresh Nissan Serena, with the most standard wheel sizes 195/65 R15. I took Spike-02 with the expectation that in winter I would have to dig out of the snow drifts of the Hong Kong region. Now I will go into the third winter already, the flight is excellent. Traction on snow and ice is almost equal to asphalt traction due to well-chosen materials combined with a pattern. The contact patch is as large as possible, so the stopping distance is shorter than many small cars, although the…

In general, the norms of rubber, premium. I recommend. Its pros: Made in Japan. Tungsten carbide spikes (hard as diamond). An interesting directional spike, not like everyone else. Strong sidewall. On asphalt, the spikes are almost inaudible at a speed of 40-50 km / h. Brakes well both on ice and on snow, asphalt. Got cons: At a speed of 60 km / h, it starts to buzz like an airplane that is taking off, it feels the same. He does not feel confident on porridge, but everything is predictable. If…

My father has been riding the Spike 02 for the second year now, I looked at the results and decided to take it to my Golf GTI as well. For those who like fast driving, it's really a good option. They didn’t let me down in overtaking even once, and what’s important, they didn’t lose a single spike on my father’s car all winter. As will be with me - I will write.

Definitely recommend, worth the money. For a long time I chose between Nokian, Pirelli and Bridgestone, in the end I decided that these would be optimal both in price and quality, and most importantly for me - they should row well on snow-covered primers (I live in the village, and even on the mountain). As a result, I didn’t lose, this rubber takes me to my mountains))) And there is something to compare with - half a winter I drove backwards, then with several attempts up our mountain along an

I ride a Mazda 3. The first time I changed my shoes early enough, because I was leaving on a business trip in October and for several months. The spikes pounded on the asphalt, which is probably why he paid attention to it. Then I got used to it, and the snow fell. I drive a lot and most of the time fast. During use, the tread was not clogged with snow, there were few scratches, the spikes decreased by 20 percent in total. For me, the main advantage is that the car calmly goes on the ice and…

In general, I recommend. The value for money is excellent. Pros: Many have described, I will not write much. Holds the road well on asphalt, on ice, on snow, stable in turns. This winter is snowy, I traveled on different types of roads. The noise is not great, heard and louder. I don't understand why he bothers others. I’ve been driving since November-February, until I saw the fallen spikes, I’ll check at the end of the season. On April 17, I changed the wheels to summer ones, looked for the…

Bought on sale 112022. , I wanted others, but these were the only ones I managed to buy (difficulties with registration). I read that the Scandinavian pattern is not for our latitudes (Hong Kong region), but this winter fully confirmed these untenable opinions, only such wheels were raked out of everything . Has some pros: Excellent tires, for the season of 21 years, not a single spike flew out, fell into serious ice pits, there were no penetrations. Some cons: Everything is fine, although they

At the end of 2022, I chose winter tires. Taking bridgestone blizzak spike-02 was out of the question at all, as bridgestone blizzak spike-01 proved itself from a bad side. All where it was recommended to take only Nokian. But I wanted a Continental. Continental IceContact 3 just came out. Which I managed to find for a price of around 5.5 for a balloon of 14 radius measuring 185 by 65. As a result, I thought why overpay and took bridgestone blizzak spike-02 at 3.2 per cylinder. For the third…

In search of the perfect tires came to the second spike, by trial and error. Something did not suit the noise level, something seemed oaky, some seemingly normal wheels during non-standard conditions gave out ahtung that. These same wheels pleased with their predictability. Even when you fly into a puddle at speed, you know how high the column of water will be and the deviation from the course (spoiler - there will be practically no, you can neglect it). On ice, too, when one wheel is on an icy

for a long time I was looking for what kind of rubber to put, according to reviews I settled on this one, the choice was most influenced by the super-reliability of the spikes, they say they don’t fly out, but nifiga! Sakhalin, set at the end of October for a run-in, the snow fell after 3 weeks, I drive little and carefully, sometimes, if necessary, gazan or brake. Today I saw only a cursory glance that I already had 8-10 pieces of spikes flying off the front wheels, today the operation is…

I took it for the first frosts, and a day later +8 for a whole week, and I was very worried that I would cripple the rubber, but it seemed to survive (I still lost a couple of spikes on the highway). Dry asphalt holds at + and at -, icy asphalt holds, wet confidently. The first snow uphill on icy asphalt powdered with snow is coming! Changing lanes on the highway at 160 km/h across the rut is normal through deep snow and porridge is normal. The noise is average, after the first thousand it…

I live in Siberia, snow and ice on the streets of the city and roads to the very ears. The runs are great, so I chose the breeches, in memory of the brightest feelings for the 5000 breeches that stood on the Honda. I installed spikes on 2 different cars, skated 2 seasons, I can safely say that the wear is minimal, the spikes are all in place (and the mileage on one car over the winter is more than 10,000 km). In frosts from -25 to -35, the tire does not tan, adequate and predictable behavior on

Yes, what are the disadvantages, if it does everything 100%))) Ride gently and there is no rumble. Turns are passed with dignity at any reasonable speed (never skidded). During precipitation, the grip properties do not deteriorate, but remain at the level of dry weather. The braking distance is very decent, that is, the contact patch should be straight steep. Drawing allows you to get away from hydroplaning, as far as possible. The elasticity of the tire allows driving in both -40 and +10…

I tested the tires both on the Hong Kong streets, where, in principle, everything is quite decent, and on the Hong Kong region mess. Parking near the house with half a meter of snow, roads with a decent layer of ice - rubber took everything. Separately, I note that the tread is well cleaned, nothing gets clogged there. The spikes do not fly out at all, which is a direct indicator for me! Although I did not spare the rubber at all, almost from the first day of use I already drove 140 on the…

Feedback on the dimension 205/65 R15 on a Renault Fluence. Previously, I used Bridgestone Blizzak VRX Velcros - they behaved a little better on ruts and in slush, but the ice crust put them on a par with the most budgetary spikes. Has pros: Surprisingly well they dig out of loose snow, snowdrifts, cling to the rolled ice crust. On the track, they confidently hold the road until the layer of loose snow is less than 2-3 cm . then you need to slow down and think with your head. In puddles, on dry…
