Tyre reviews Hankook RW11 i Pike. Page 8 343

Hankook i*pike RW11. Remember this model and give it a miss. When I had to replace the car, I still had some asphalt left, and I noticed that I couldn't hear the clicking of the studs. At first, this pleased me, but then I understood the nature of this process. The length of the studs is 0.7 mm, while for normal winter tires like Continental, Gislaved, Nokian, it is 1.2-1

I'm looking for tires for my X5 right now, but I won't be buying those. I'll put winter tires on my Honda Jazz and that's for this winter. That's because over the last two winters I haven't had a single stud break off and the tread wear is almost perfect. And also because on the Jazz you can't really push the limits, so the slides on the icy rural road were manageable. And they were there because of the lack of directional stability, my rear

Took off one season. No bulges. The tire is generally not bad, works well in deep snow and "mush" 5+, minimal wear, but at +10 and above, I recommend maintaining a safe distance, otherwise the braking distance is greatly increased (at 30 km/h sharp braking and it screams). Also, there is an issue with lateral skidding when turning (snow drifts, black ice) - do not dare to accelerate (front-wheel drive vehicle) - the

Wasted money. Throughout my driving experience, I have never had such "great" feelings driving a car on these tires in the winter period. Handling 0, braking on ice 0. The only advantage is that it's soft and quiet.

Excellent tire

I installed the given studded tires instead of friction tires.

Quite a decent studding for its money. With the correct speed selection, it copes with its tasks very well. For a heavy jeep, studding is definitely needed. On the highway, it's very quiet and soft.

Excellent tires have been standing for almost 13 years. They hold the road perfectly. I had to stud 35 spikes on 4 wheels. From the inside, it starts to flake off along the edges. It was operated at temperatures as low as -40 degrees. The tread is still deep. I think I can drive for another 3 years.

Personally, for me, the tires are normal in all aspects, except for driving on loose, moderately deep snow and starting on ice. For example, if you drive in to park where the road is not cleared and there are 15-20 centimeters of snow, 90% of the time you will get stuck. Also, starting to move on an icy road is a big problem, the wheels spin (front-wheel drive), and you have to slowly press the gas pedal. However, they are very wear-resistant. I've had them for 7 winters, and the wear is about 50% visually. You can continue to drive on them. They are quiet, probably because the studs do not touch the asphalt. I would not buy them a second time.

Don't want to write a lot. Very pleased.

The tire is terrible. There's no grip, the studs don't catch on ice, and it's helpless in slush.
