This is my first new tire. I expected more from them, I have not tested in the winter snow last year was mild. Dry year very well tire of the road, while in the wet traction lose too quickly, resulting in a quick turn on the ABS and ESP. The reason for this can be the vehicle mass (1700 kg), but drugs which had always exercised better. Regarding comfort, I do not have reservations, we know that the new tire is new.

Under normal conditions, good results in extreme snow and ice already worse. To dry very well at higher temperatures a bit too soft, even at 5-7 ° C for the time of replacement.

Tire in Exhibit 3 in my opinion is worse than the previous generation 2. In fact, the good performance of the previous generation led me to this choice, but soon I realized that it's not. The primary endpoint for me to evaluate is the ability to move out wet or snowy roads, the previous generation is no difference compared to summer. The behavior of the car was so different, after a month of use, I went to the ASO to check the drive AWD, if it works properly. Similarly, a difference in the corners. I decided to hold until the end of the season, in the case of future use of the car for the season 2016/2017 purchase more and they sell. At the end I mention that the generation using 2 to 3 seasons and transported the 60 tys.km.

I drove about 3000 km, two lanes on almost 1,000 km. They behave well, especially in the snow. Big enough wear tread, higher than expected, estimation still had two seasons. Many rolling resistance, resulting in high fuel consumption on the road. Any significant noise, which the road is a little heavy, especially at high speeds on dry roads. I'm not sure what the author meant by requesting an evaluation of the appearance of the tire. They look like normal tires, round, black, with no special frills. To summarize: these are the correct tires, but their price exceeds the parameters

I live in the mountains near. Disappointing in rain mixed with wet conditions, in particular the phenomena of aquaplaning and skidding in conditions where I not with other tires. On good enough snow. Overall I would say that in the same price range, there are many better alternatives, especially the Fulda Kristall Montero 3 with which I had no doubt the best results.
