For those in a hurry: quite decent tires. So, on dry roads, no complaints, accelerated to 140 to check for imbalance since the balancer warned that the weight of the loads exceeded the average norm on 2 out of 4. They were stored vertically before installation, I don't know if it's correct or not. As for driving on snow: I can only say about a snow-covered highway, sensitivity to rutting is minimal, I'd say none, I have 205 width tires and compared to 185 (which I had before) it was very noticeable. Braking efficiency: well, once I was distracted on the highway at night, it seemed that the red lights of the cars were moving forward, but it turned out that they were standing (literally in a field at a traffic light intersection), I had to press the brake pedal, well, nothing critical, we stopped with a margin without squealing and the like. Wear resistance: it's too early for me to judge, after 5 years I'll change them to new ones anyway, I don't drive with summer tires, I drive without seasonal tire changes. Previous Gislaved Soft Pro 200 was replaced with Nokian after 4 years of all-season and 32,000 km with a remaining tread of 4.5-5 mm. Resistance to aquaplaning: I'm not a racer, so I haven't noticed any planning. Handling on a wet road: I didn't notice any difference from dry roads. Price justification: it's a long-term use product, in 5 years it will be clear how justified it is. I've been using it for 4 months.
Comfort while driving:
Noise level while driving: a noise level of 67 dB you will see very far from not everyone, and precisely only with Nokian. Of course, over time, any tire becomes harder, in general, for now, it's quiet and pleasant tires, soft on joints and small bumps. Quality of manufacture: I would put 5 if it weren't for the warnings from the balancer, but it's not a fact that he correctly matched all the marks. Handling on ice: Definitely better than on summer tires, neither on the icy hill near my house nor on the icy exits of gas stations or other courtyards, they handle. Steering stability: just 5. Speed characteristics: for me, like most people, non-racers, excellent.
