Tyre reviews Gislaved Terracontrol ATR. Page 2 40

The tire looks powerful. In mud and on wet grass, it grips confidently, not getting stuck once. On asphalt, it makes more noise than usual, but for such a tread pattern, this is a normal thing.

I bought the ATR version specifically for my Nissan. The tread pattern looks impressive. They handle mud and wet grass confidently, and get out of ruts without any problems. I thought they would be very loud on the highway due to the aggressive tread pattern, but it turned out to be quite tolerable, with moderate noise. They are ideal for mixed driving conditions.

Good tires. I liked that I don't have to rush to change shoes after the first snow in winter. In the first snowfalls, the grip on them is normally preserved

Great!

I only have a Duster for the village. The roads there are decent, but after rains, it's sometimes impossible to drive on a regular sedan. The last set of tires I had didn't quite work out for me - there were some issues. With Gislaved, they disappeared. Although, my fuel consumption did increase slightly. But does it really matter?

I bought them specifically for fishing trips. It rides confidently on thawed grass, doesn't slip. They feel heavy, fuel consumption has increased by a liter. That's where the complaints end. In all other respects, everything is fine.

At the beginning of summer, I chose wheels for the Mitsubishi Outlander. I often have to drive on dirt roads and wanted something that could withstand our roads. I expected stiffness from Terracontrol ATR, but was surprised: on asphalt, they move confidently and softly, and on gravel, they show themselves worthy. In turns, the car holds stable, there are no extra swings and surprises. Mud is not for them, of course, but a couple of heavy sections, the tires passed calmly, did not fail. On the highway, there is a slight noise, a little louder than regular summer tires, but you quickly stop paying attention to it when you evaluate the reliability. Over the season, I drove about 6000 km - the condition is excellent, the wear is minimal.

The Santa Fe requires sturdy tires. After searching for a suitable one, I stopped at TerraControl ATR. I took it specifically to drive both in the city and in the countryside. By appearance, the tire is solid, it looks powerful on the car. On asphalt, they behave well - handling is stable, braking is predictable. On the highway up to 110 km/h, it's quiet, above that, a slight hum appears, however, for such sizes, it's expected. Out of town, I liked them - on dirt and sand, they hold up decently. I got what I wanted. I'm satisfied.

I've been searching for versatile tires that would perform well both on asphalt and in light off-road conditions. In the end, I chose the Terracontrol ATR.

In the city and on the highway, they behave calmly: the noise is moderate, they hold the trajectory clearly, especially when the trunk is loaded. Fuel consumption has increased only slightly, but I've gained a sense of reliability. On the highway at 110-120 km/h, they hold stable, and when overtaking, there is the necessary predictability in handling.

Over the summer, I managed to drive to go fishing and a couple of times pulled a trailer through wet grass. No wheel spin, no slipping - I was even surprised. However, on rocky sections, you need to be more careful - the sidewalls are softer than I expected. In July, some lady in a "crossover" got stuck in the sand, and I pulled her out without wheel spin. In other words, these wheels are all about confidence in almost any conditions.

ATR is a compromise between highway and rare off-road excursions. On the Santa Fe with four-wheel drive, it's an excellent combination. They ride smoothly on asphalt, with minimal noise. On broken dirt roads and gravel, there are no complaints. The tread does not clog with dirt, holds the trajectory. In turns, they do not slip, even on sandy areas. TerraControl ATR is stiffer than highway tires, but more reliable on bad roads. On wet asphalt, it behaves confidently. I drove onto a rainy dirt road - it didn't get stuck. The comfort is acceptable.
