Im amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

A car with permanent all-wheel drive, if you work roughly with the gas pedal when accelerating on an uncleaned road, rearranges it in the lane. Haka 5 was less prone to this behavior. Rubber feels more confident on uncleaned roads than on asphalt. When possible, I accelerate and brake on the rolled snow. I would not recommend it for places where the main winter run is on asphalt. Actually the name of the model hints at this. I put 5 because there is the main quality that I was looking for in…

Pros
  • Grip on ice and snow. Deep tread Quiet, soft 17th radius made in Germany When balancing, minimal weights were needed
Cons
  • Tendency to lateral drift 2 tires sat well on the discs, 2 with a radial runout of a few mm, which is higher than the allowable according to GOST. The evenness of the discs was checked before assembly. I put the wheels with a beating back, I do not feel vibrations.

A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

Auto: Ford Probe I, manual transmission, size 195/65 R15 There are no stabilization systems and other electronics, one "bare" ABS. I drive in St. Petersburg, Leningrad region, M10-M11 highway. It rows perfectly in snow and porridge, slows down on icing, is controlled on snowy ice. Parking in the snow, given our low landing, and then leaving from there is easy. It wobbles a bit in snow/ice ruts, but the sidewalls are strong. On the new Scandinavia, when rebuilding, it got into a frozen mess…

Pros
  • The first set went away for 5 winters, I got a new one for 2022/19. Rows, controls, manages, slows down.
Cons
  • Noisy, but that's not a problem for me.

Not the best quality, but generally not bad.

A very controversial tire. After the first season, I could say excellent, 5 spikes flew out on 4 tires. Rubber behaved with dignity, rowing only on the way. But after the second season, almost all the spikes flew out. It crossed out all the pros. Different pros: Snow flotation Predictable on all types of surface except ice. Its cons: For 2 seasons, there are 6 spikes left on 4 wheels! Very strange behavior on the ice, constantly leading somewhere. It rolls very easily in a turn. Rum from 50 to…

The product is of poor quality, I don't recommend it.

The tires are very good (at least I thought so when I bought them in 2022). Auto - VAZ classic. I traveled a lot (about 10 - 12 thousand during the winter), all kinds of roads: highway, city, village roads. I left the first season with minor losses: there are 4 and 6 spikes on the rear wheels. The second season - in the village I got stuck in a snowdrift (a primer under the snow), while I was leaving I lost ALL the spikes on the rear wheels. I was shocked by this. I will never contact Goodyear…

Pros
  • They drive well on snow and ice, are relatively not noisy (but a run-in is needed for about 1 - 1.5 thousand km), they hold the road well under any conditions (snow, ice, dry or wet asphalt).
Cons
  • The spikes are very bad.

Definitely not worse, and in some moments even much better than Hakkapelita 7! In particular, grip on snow and ice ! I repeat, the tires are not noisy ! I left the installation and drove for an hour on the asphalt, the noise was no more than from hakkapelita 7! Size 205/55/16. Who writes about noise, this is only a lack of soundproofing of the machine itself ! Rubber is great! So far I'm happy! I won't change it for Hakka 7!

Pros
  • Excellent traction on snow and ice. QUIET! No matter what you write here!
Cons
  • Small side drift in porridge

It is impossible to use, a bad product.

The recall is for Goodyear UltraGrip Ice Arctic 185/65R15 88T tires. I have only been driving them for a week, so this review is after a week of operation (every day mileage is about 150 km) I will try to supplement the review after a longer period of wear resistance and handling. We don’t have snow and ice yet to write something about it and put points, so for these two parameters I gave 4 stars in advance. Time will show.

Pros
  • Until I discovered
Cons
  • My previous tires on different machines were Bridgestone Ice Cruisers (three times I preferred these tires and would give a fourth time, but they were not available), so the comparison is made with them. In this case, with the same dimensions 185 / 65R15 88T. 1. Terribly noisy. At the same time, I think that all winter studded tires are very noisy, but in comparison with Bridgestone, these are more noisy chtol. However, in the store where I took them, the rating of these tires in terms of noise comfort is higher than that of breeches - which is a clear lie. At the same time, I came to the store on old studded Bridgestones, changed into new Goodyear shoes - so the comparison is the most relevant. Goodyear tires are very noisy - fact #1. 2. In one of the reviews I read that the tires are narrower than the rest. I confirm that they are 5-7 millimeters narrower. Evaluate for yourself according to the photos attached to the review. The breeches were flush with the discus, and these do not reach it very much. I think that this is just a blatant swindle on the part of the manufacturer. 3. Below they wrote that these tires have very soft sides. It really is. When pressed with a finger, it dips a little (it is easily pressed into the tire) and all the time it seems that the wheels are flat, but the pressure sensor says that this is not the case. They write that because of this, the tires burst just on the side. I will ate my review if this happens.

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

Car: Chevrolet Lacetti Tire size: 195/60/15 Price: 3730 per balloon Driving Style: Aggressive In general, I took this rubber on 10/11/16, tires manufactured in mid-2022. I put it on the coming weekend, the snow was already lying concretely. While getting home from the installation, I noticed that the rubber is softer and holds the car more confidently on the road than Yokohama, which stood before. I took it off only on 05/17/2022 and in vain it snowed again on the same day! The total…

Pros
  • Great tires, some pluses!
Cons
  • If you find fault, it’s noisy, but you don’t have to wait for the spikes of another!

This is an ate to the December 31, 2022 review. Running my second winter. Impressions are no longer as enthusiastic as immediately after the purchase. On its merits - rowing is also excellent on any surface. After last winter (15000 km in St. Petersburg) I didn’t lose a single spike, but . In the first month I pierced two wheels - side cuts (one was restored, the second was thrown out). Sidewall knowingly seemed suspiciously soft. Perhaps because of this (I'm not an expert), the second minus…

Pros
  • Grip on any surface. Very durable spines.
Cons
  • Very weak sidewalls and dislikes rutting

Unsatisfactory quality, I will not buy this again.

Oh, I don't know about other people's hearing, but it's an impossible noise. At a speed of 80, one gets the feeling that you are sitting inside 4 low-speed turbines. What a rustle of spikes on the asphalt! Full-fledged bass boom. Hope. that the drawing will be erased a little and it will become quieter. But I understand that the chances are minimal.

Pros
  • Soft, behaves well on asphalt, both wet and hidden under the snow
Cons
  • NOISE!

A good product, I advise you to try it.

I'm on my second winter. In principle, thorns are like thorns, but it is in our conditions - in central 2022, where it snows, then thaw, then ice, then thaw again - I like Nokian much more.

I didn't like it, I don't recommend buying it.

I have quite a lot of experience, there were a lot of different rubbers, I decided to try goodie all the same, the engineers worked on its creation for many years, I could not believe that they didn’t succeed! Skated 2 seasons and threw it away with a lot of hatred, never when I had such a bad rubber. There is almost no stability on the road, there is almost no zero, the car constantly had to be caught, lateral drift in corners is a separate song, it is simply dangerous to enter turns at speed…

Pros
  • There are no benefits! Tires are terrible!
Cons
  • Very poor directional stability. Soft side. The spikes fly out like clockwork, by the end of the first season there were almost no spikes on the front wheels. For the first time I saw such that the spikes could be reached with your hand, just pick it up with your fingernail and calmly get it!

I've been using it since the start of the season. At the moment, the mileage in Hong Kong and the region is about 6.5 thousand km. In principle, everything suits, especially how it rows in the snow. However, when the wheel was forced to be removed in search of a puncture, it turned out that 3 spikes had already left the tire. The tire is on the drive axle. Perhaps due to driving style, but still a little upset. Nevertheless, I am satisfied with the purchase, the wheels are pleasing.

Pros
  • Adequate behavior on different surfaces
Cons
  • The first time was very noisy. Then either I got used to it, or I got used to it, and perhaps both factors.

If they don’t invent something hyper-super-pupper, then I’ll take the same rubber for the second car. She is absolutely worth the money. At the same time, I clearly understand that at a speed of under 100 and on an icy road, no spikes and technologies will save. For me, the ideal option is retractable spikes. I pressed a button on dry pavement - they were gone. I saw the ice-released. But that hasn't been figured out yet.

Pros
  • Quiet, even in a car with no soundproofing. Spikes with careful use are almost not lost. It holds the road well, miracles do not happen on clean ice, but it does not lead to the side.
Cons
  • The first 2-3 thousand kilometers buzzed. And it’s good, it didn’t howl like Amtel, but there was a constant noise from the clatter of spikes. Thought it was forever - upset. Then the noise went away. I thought he left with the spikes - nope, everything is in place. During the period from November to May, several spikes from the entire set were lost. Today I wore them again - with pleasure already.

Review only for size 225/55 R17, Mazda6 gj car with add. soundproofing. Impressed, unlike Velcro on ice fails. Addendum: for the fourth season, I had to buy three cylinders, since the spikes were completely gone, 60% of my stupidity (I polished a couple of times on a sharp curb and cut a lot, the rest flew out on their own. Came one from Germany, two Polish. Polish ones seem to buzz more strongly after 10 thousand break-ins.

Pros
  • On ice it slows down, it is controlled Suspiciously quiet for spikes (after break-in) Did not disappoint on dry pavement In 225/55 R17 Germany only Price for this level
Cons
  • The first thousand km buzzes

Great product, best quality.

I drove Largus Cross through snowdrifts with U-turns where the Niva slipped back and forth in 15 minutes in some places (the rubber was also one of the best), although, for the most part, it was confident. I was not too lazy to measure the height of the snow - 21-25 cm, in some places up to 27 cm, sticky, not loose. Taking into account the far from the best parameters of Largus in terms of cross-country ability (long base, weight distribution along the axes is not in favor of the leading one) -

Pros
  • Phenomenal flotation through snowdrifts. Easy handling.
Cons
  • You need to roll well. After a short trip through snowdrifts on new tires, 1 spike was lost and a few got out and was on the verge of falling off.

I am amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

I will use the second season. Having bought it, I rolled it as expected, strictly observing the requirements for running in (speed, driving style). I didn't experience any particular stress. In winter, the car is predictable! The rubber does its job very well. There is not much to compare with, but personally she saved me more than once. Recommend to all spike lovers! I am satisfied. But I'll take the trace of the rubber linden, because. In the offseason, it’s really a pity for these super…

Pros
  • everything is super
Cons
  • in the off-season (when it’s time to change shoes) it drags a little on the pavement, and buzzes a little on the pavement (of course - SPIKES)

I remember how long I chose tires for the winter. Previously, there was bridgestone close to Spike 01. I didn’t go in at all. It was tough, noisy, the road kept terribly. After I switched to this rubber, I was just happy. Good tires, holds the road in the snow perfectly. It goes well in the snow. Soft, no noise. You just need to be careful in the pits, otherwise you can damage it. Although the bridgestone was tougher and still struck at the crossing.

Pros
  • Holds the road well Soft (the most for winter) Tread pattern
Cons
  • Until I discovered

Good product, not disappointed.

Tire change 205/55 R16, skated the 2022/2022 season on tires. Car Skoda Superb Combi 2.0 (200 l/s). Operation from November to April, 60% city, 40% highway. Rubber is not bad for its price (I took about 5,000 per cylinder) Good performance on snow (acceleration / braking on hard 4-5), on ice / ice (similarly), on asphalt is also the norm, but provided that the frost is not strong, at -20 or more, the braking distance increases, you need to be more careful. At the beginning of operation there…

Pros
  • Confident driving on snow / slush, braking on snow and ice. Pretty quiet compared to competitors, high price / quality ratio.
Cons
  • Medium quality studding, directional stability at speeds over 100 km/h

Good and quality product, but there are flaws.

It rows like crazy, during the night the car sat down on protection (the snow melted under the wheels in front), so it raked itself out, didn’t push, didn’t pull, didn’t dig without getting out of the car. My father has a Qashqai with abs + esp + etc rubber hakapelita 7 I have an Almera without systems, the braking distance on snow and ice is shorter. Lethargy is possible due to the profile, it should be normal at low, but the sidewall is very soft anyway. When I changed it back to summer…

Pros
  • Passability / Softness / Noiselessness
Cons
  • Marriage (fake) (quality control) / Sluggish sidewall
