Tyre reviews Gislaved Premiumcontrol. Page 39 1033

I bought it after I found out it's a clone of Continental Premium Contact 5. I haven't driven on Continental tires myself, but if they're the same, I don't understand why people love them. On a 65-profile tire, it's terribly prone to sidewall deformation, the sidewall is so soft that even the wind rocks the car. The tread, on the other hand, is stiff, it squeaks in turns, and when braking hard, the ABS kicks in immediately. In terms of handling, compared to Viatti, it's night and day in favor of Viatti. The only advantages are slightly improved ride smoothness and slightly less noise from the tires. However, after 10,000 km, the tire became noticeably noisier. I don't know how this tire behaves with a lower profile, but with a 65-profile, it's a tire for old men and their Lada cars.

Based on reviews, although it arrived on March 25, although there are fresh tires in the reviews with photos.

Refusal. Reordered.

The tires were very disappointing, they were poorly balanced, 50-70 grams on one side, the braking distance increased and a lot of other negative nuances. The previous ones were Continental 5 from the factory, although they advertise that Gislaved is exactly the same as Continental 5, but Gislaved is far from Continental.

Out of four wheels, three are bouncing. At 140 vibration is just terrible. Thought Continental would deliver, but no, seems like they didn't quite perfect the technology. Should have splurged on Icon. And although there's no SUV marking, they're stiff. However, the winter tires from this company are just excellent, what's going on😒

I don't know who writes such great reviews, but I'm a fool who believed them. I decided to change my GoodYear tires to Gislaved Premium Control 195 60 15. The first trip on the highway was a huge disappointment, on turns I had to brake or else I'd see the license plate of my own car, on bumps the car behaves as if the stabilizer struts are dead (although this wasn't the case with my previous tires), the braking distance has increased, and as for the noise, I'll say it straight - it's become quieter in the car, it handles potholes normally without pulling to the side. In short, I'd be better off buying some Chinese tires than this one. I'll try to suffer through the season, and if it doesn't get better, I'll get rid of them. As for balancing, 30-40 grams, I checked the disks, they're all even, about 10 grams, and there's no question, I'm just in shock, this is the first time I've encountered such tires. For those who care about speed, you can forget about it.
