Tyre reviews Hankook W409 Winter i Pike. Page 3 279

Overall the tire isn't bad. But I didn't quite get it. I had a set of such tires without studs (ended in the 9th at summer) and a set of new ones. Naturally, I put the studded tires on the front, because safety comes first, and I inserted the unstudded ones on the back. And so the most important thing - the Lada 21074 (CLASSIC). It braked on an 8-point scale on a 10-point

Tires for the average car owner. Before, there was Hankook 4 and 5, but since the budget was tight, last year I bought Hankook W409. Not bad for the price range, in fact, I think it's a good buy for the money. I lost 5-7 studs throughout the season. Friend Alexander teased me, writing on August 8, that his wife drove oval wheels (Nokian Hakkapeliitta 5) at -25 degrees

Durable, noisy, don’t like aquaplaning, last for thousands of miles (went 20,000, tread like new, studs are still in place except for one, only wear and rust) Were humming new ones on dry asphalt, then quieted down as the studs wore out, became tolerable after 10,000 miles.

Good tire, lasted for four seasons. It showed itself very well at minus 25-35 degrees (my wife has a Hakkapeliitta 5, so she went on rimmed wheels too). I recommend, the price-quality ratio is on level, and the traction didn't fail, especially in the spring, when you're crawling around on your belly in the yard, but that's already about the car...

Great Tires for Winter ... Traction and Braking in Snow are Amazing. This is my second time buying them for winter and once again I was not disappointed. Even though this winter was easy on the snow, in dry conditions the tires performed OK. A bit loose on the highway due to the soft compound and large sidewalls. Definitely good for up to 120mph. Not studded so noise level was very comfortable. After one winter, around 15000 miles (had very long drives

They were very good on our 2011 Nissan Murano with all-wheel drive and I could not break them down, trying to get through a hard pack of snow and a light dusting of snow and got another set for my mom and sister's 05 Focus and 09 Altima and they say they are amazing.

I've never known what oversteer, aquaplaning, or wheelspin at 80 km/h when accelerating feels like. The car tends to float and I have to catch it. It only slides when I press the accelerator and have my foot on the gas pedal. The tread is so aggressive that the tread is flying off at a slow speed when driving in a calm manner. Prior to this, I drove on Cordiant Smax and never experienced anything like this. The only advantage is

Good tyres for snow and wet road conditions, high aquaplaning resistance even at high speed, confident handling on dry roads. Good traction even in reverse on deep snow. The drawbacks are poor traction on ice, which may be due to the rounded shape of the studs. As a result, it is difficult to climb an icy slope. Next time I will try Gislaved Nord Frost 5, they have a similar tread pattern, but with a rectangular stud shape. The price/quality ratio

Great winter tires: Aggressive tread and great snow traction. I run them at the max recommended pressure and they still give a decent ride and comfort for the type of tire. I've said it before, they're really grippy in the slippery stuff? Best Snowies I own.

I bought a new 185/65/14 as usual before the snow and with a lack of funds). 2100 for a tire. What can be said, the tire is probably worth such money - you can adjust to everything. Regarding the noise - it hums at low speeds and then the sound disappears. The winter asphalt is slightly snowy - it handles well - on a summer asphalt, a rut, compacted snow - poor handling - it feels like there are no studs at all.
