Tyre reviews Gislaved Nord Frost 5. Page 3 656
- Rate
4 seasons, 50% studs, tread wear - 30%!
Service vehicle, driving style - calm.
Pretty quiet. Snow, ice, puddles - no problem.
Really liked it. Gave it to a colleague, as pleased as a elephant. Took the Nord Frost 100 - the start was a bit heavier, but it's only the first season. The studs are all in place, and we're on record.- Vehicle:

Carefully spin them! And 3 seasons of 205 55 16 Toyota Vensis, 3 tires with 4x studs... really, it's visible that it's maximum season and studs will start to come off, but 4 seasons for its price - fine. Anyway, I'm thinking about replacing it with the new one from this manufacturer. Doesn't get gummed up on ice, smoothly takes in the irregularities, brakes on the asphalt both wet and dry perfectly, movement

Driven on these tires for 3 winters. Lost tread after 3 seasons - 10% on each wheel. Pros: TREADLESS, soft (summer tires are louder than these), excellent road grip (at 90 km/h a car ran into me head-on - it had changed lanes from the asphalt to the shoulder (a snowcat track) and returned without issues). On ice, the key is not to lock up - they grip well in the lean. Once, on a special ice

The main virtue is very quiet and soft. All other parameters are slightly above average. Requires frequent use of the head during driving. Can have sharp slides in a strong turn on a heavily icy road. Drives well in deep snow, at least with full-time all-wheel drive. Worth its money.

I was hesitant to choose a tire for a long time! I read a lot of reviews and finally settled on NF5. The tire is on a 4 hardness scale. It grips the road well, even on ice, at speeds of 100-120 km/h. The most important thing is not to over-inflate the tire, and even on an incline, it will pull you up on ice. I don't live in the city, and the roads are rarely cleared. It's

Got from the previous owner. Ran for 2 seasons without any issues. Always pulls out of the snow and is also not bad on ice. During this time, a total of 10% of the studs have fallen off, which is not critical. In general, it's a good tire.

I have been riding on Gislave 5 2 winters, minimum complaints... exactly two:
1) if there is snow on the asphalt in the city (which was not cleared yet), then all the trouble is to keep a distance;
2) it is difficult to get out of the snowy track on a paved road.
In general, the wheels are not bad, I bought them after Gislave 3 three seasons of operation. In two seasons, only- Vehicle:

Great tire. I've driven it for the third season. 3-5 studs are blown off the wheel. Not very noisy. It whines at speeds over 100 km/h. Max acceleration on this tire was 170 km/h on the Albea. It holds the road well, but slightly slips. Handling on snow and in slush is excellent! I recommend!

Great tire. Predictable. Slides into a skid nicely and catches well. Lost one bead on all four tires over the season. Whoever loses all the beads in a season... I guess they just want to kill the tire or something. Quiet tire, not that it's quiet, it's actually completely silent. Snow sticks like crazy! You'd have to try hard to spin the car out. The only thing that happens on the highway is you have to catch the car.

Tires live up 100%. The best - acceleration - drive on slippery surfaces and spirited driving in loose snow. A bit worse - braking on slippery surfaces. The studs are not felt at all while driving, only when sharp braking or acceleration (floating stud technology). A bit too loud - hum at speeds over 80 km/h. I have 3 seasons - the first 2 are beyond praise, but the third is already noticeably worse - first, the studs have worn off - they have become
