Tyre reviews iLINK IL868 Winter. Page 1 6477

Over the years, I've come to realize that non-studded tires are on par with studded ones, if not surpassing them in some ways. This particular model, as far as I know, boasts a higher rubber content, which greatly enhances its durability. The sidewall is robust and well-balanced, with no annoying chatter, unlike on studded tires.

I deliberately chose not to rate some parameters (gave 4 to avoid lowering the tire's rating, but couldn't leave it

After reading all the reviews, I decided to take a chance, since Japanese and other tires were impossible to buy after February 2022. I bought them in the fall of 2024, immediately replaced the old ones and went on vacation to the Urals from Moscow. The temperature difference was 20 degrees, and I tested them in all possible conditions within a day. I was left with a pleasant impression of these tires. They are quiet, handle the road well in any conditions, and during the one-way trip, I encountered wet asphalt with puddles, dry and wet snow with slush, dry snow, and ice. The ABS hardly ever engaged in harsh conditions, but maybe it also depends on the car. They were balanced without any issues, and there are no vibrations. I've already driven about 10,000 km on them, and I'll update my review with photos later.

Having read bad reviews, I decided to write my own, so I installed them on 12.12.2024 and drove 600 km in a day.

The car is a BMW 5th series, size 245/40/18, I can say with 100% confidence that the tires are excellent, soft, and handle the road perfectly, I was warned that they would be unbalanced - but everything is fine!!! They also perform great on snow! For this price, they're just super, I bought them on Ozone for 5,700 per tire! I remind you that these are R18, so feel free to buy them and don't listen to anyone!!!! Good luck to everyone!

Great tire, was worried they wouldn't be balanced, but everything went smoothly and I'm very pleased with the tires.

Excellent tires, I'm very pleased, definitely not worse than Japanese ones, and Eastern European ones are not even comparable. I will always choose this model for all my cars.

I'm very pleased with the tires. Of course, they're not Toyo, but they hold up quite well for the price. And for such a price, the alternative is probably only Kama, so the choice is obvious.

Super.

The wheels arrived a day earlier. At first glance, the tires are good. I haven't installed them yet.

I chose based on reviews and didn't regret it. Thanks to everyone who writes honestly.
I'll say this, the tread is good, soft, moderately noisy. During balancing, the weight of the weights was no more than 20 grams, but the disks on my car are not new, so I consider this an excellent indicator.
The pressure holds, nothing changes.
I have something to compare with, on my previous cars I had Toyo and Dunlop tires, and there was also Chinese Arivo, so Ilink is no worse than Toyo and Dunlop for me.

One season has passed. I don't see any minuses yet. Visually, there is no wear. To be fair, it's worth noting that about half of the mileage was driving on the MKAD, and there is usually no snow or ice there. Considering the price, I definitely give this tire five points!
