Maxxis Victra Sport VS5 SUV

I understand that all negative reviews of the Maxxis VS5 are based on the fact that this tire model is positioned as a UHP-class tire and a direct competitor to Michelin Pilot Sport, Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric, Continental ContiPremiumContact, and others. But let's be realistic: for a price 2-4 times lower, you won't get a full-fledged analog of top tires from well-known European brands.

Yes, the Victra Sport 5 is not bad: it holds the road well, doesn't feel like it's in a rut, has no complaints when braking, and doesn't hydroplane on wet roads, but if you compare it to the Pilot Sport, it will naturally be worse. Maxxis is a bit noisy, moderately stiff (after all, it's positioned as a "sporty" tire), but for its price, it's a very decent option.

If you have a BMW M5 and you like to "have fun" in traffic, this is not your option. But if you have a car with up to 250 horsepower, these tires will be enough for public roads with moderate driving loads. In this price segment, this is one of the best offers, so I give it a rating of 5 out of 5, considering its price.

The tires are quite good. I used to drive on Michelin and Continental. Quieter than Continental Sport 5. They perform well in the rain. When cornering, I can "dive" into turns controllably on them. Not as good as the Germans mentioned above, but there's no significant lag that would make me go "Ah!". In the end, there's no loss of traction. It's satisfying to accelerate. They're durable! But there's one thing - the brakes... the braking distance on a dry road is longer than on Conti and Michelin - that's a fact. I think it's at least 10% longer. I drive taking this minus into account. But the price, of course, "compensates" for this minus. I'm already driving on my second set.

By the way, wear - many people write about increased wear - I'll say exactly - not increased. They wear out just like my former German tires. Car: Porsche Macan GTS.

Good tires. I don't drive excessively fast, didn't test them in puddles specifically or under extreme conditions. Dunlop SP Sport Maxx 050+ are of course better but not by much, and the difference is 5 rubles with a discount. Overall, I'm satisfied, they have rim protection, a bit noisy though. I like them, if you're not an extreme driver, they'll suit you.
