Tyre reviews Gislaved Terracontrol. Page 2 164

I was choosing tires for my summer house trips and asphalt operation. TerraControl for Duster fit perfectly. In the city - smooth ride, potholes are passed without stiffness. On the highway - quiet and clear, even at 120 km/h it doesn't "wander". On gravel - worthy, doesn't catch every bump. The tires are balanced - for mixed mode everything is very good. At first glance, there are no problems. But I will write about the wear in the fall, when I finish the season. For now, after washing, I looked at the wheels - like new. And this is despite the mileage of almost 4 thousand km.

I chose them for asphalt and dirt roads.
Before that, I had Cooper from the car dealership, which had served its time, and in comparison with it:
1. This tire is soft and handles bumps well.
2. There is no aquaplaning, even if you hit a 5 cm puddle at 90 km/h, the car doesn't jerk and passes confidently. Cooper had a big problem with aquaplaning.
3. Noise, in the Renault Duster, the noise level is actually non-existent, and the tire is not noisy, even quieter than the old Cooper.
4. On sand and gravel, the car behaves confidently.
5. On the highway, no issues, doesn't drift in turns.
6. At +4 degrees, it doesn't become hard, works just like at +20 degrees.
7. There are no "marks" on the tread to track wear, a minor thing, but it's a downside.
8. The tires arrived fresh, but in some places, there were protruding rubber bits, as if they hadn't been fully processed at the factory.
I'm very pleased with the tires, and the first impression is positive, but the mileage is only 600 km.
The tread pattern is such that it gets clogged with small rocks, which start to fly out at speed and hit the body - I was aware of this, since I have experience with A/T tires.
I'm satisfied with the winter tires from this manufacturer.

I carefully selected suitable tires - the roads in our area are mixed: there is both smooth asphalt and real broken dirt roads. I stopped at Terracontrol: driving in the city is smooth, all kinds of minor bumps on the road surface are almost imperceptible. On dirt roads, the wheels do not skid, confidently pulling forward. On the highway, they stably hold speeds of up to 110-120 km/h, no unpleasant surprises even in the rain - they brake reliably. Hum is heard only occasionally, and it doesn't interfere at all. Over the past season, I haven't found any external damage.

I installed Terracontrol this spring. They fit perfectly for the Outlander. On asphalt, they behave quietly, with no strong hum. Small bumps and unevenness are passed smoothly. A couple of times I drove off onto a dirt road to the river - they grip normally, the tread doesn't get clogged with mud immediately. I don't drive in the rain, they hold the road confidently. Wear over the summer is small, sidewalls are intact. A fully worthy option for their money.

After purchasing the car, I quickly realized that the first thing I needed to do was change the tires to ones that would allow me to drive smoothly both in the city and on dirt roads. I chose Terracontrol - I wanted reliability and moderate noise. Over the summer, I drove almost 5,000 kilometers.

In the city, the tires are very quiet - even on rough asphalt, there is no hum. The handling is confident, the steering wheel is responsive, and there is no feeling of "sponginess", even when the car is loaded. On the highway, they hold the road steadily, at speeds of up to 130, there are no hints of skidding.

Outside the city, I had to drive on sandy sections and wet dirt roads a couple of times. The tires handle confidently, without slipping. However, on clay, it can be felt that this is not a "toothed" option, but the comfort in the city is higher because of this. There was a moment when my neighbor at the dacha suggested "putting on toothed tires", but I just smiled - for my tasks, these tires are optimal.

I use tires on my Mazda CX5. I drive both in the city and outside the city to my country house, on dirt roads. The tread is great, the protector is thick and wears out slowly

They hold the road well in any weather. It crawls confidently through the mud. Quite wear-resistant. Of the minuses, a lot of gravel gets stuck in the tread.

The summer season has begun - I decided to write a small review about Gislaved Terracontrol. I purchased them a year ago, and the mileage is already around 12,000. I liked the tires. If you also move on mixed roads: asphalt, gravel, forest dirt roads - then you will definitely like them too
