Tyre reviews Maxxis SS-01 Presa SUV. Страница 8 146

Aaaaaah !!! Enchanting !!!

I like it, the expectations matched reality. I use the first season.

EIGHT years WITHOUT any hassle!!!
Through mud AND through snow - the effect is the same - DRIVES EVERYWHERE!!!

I purchased the tires in size 255/60R18, which is not standard for my vehicle (Lexus RX350 2nd generation), as I wanted them to be higher and wider, cheaper, and with an off-road tread pattern, since I enjoy driving off-road. The first problems started with tire mounting, as I had already bought 9-inch wide rims (while the recommended size on the tire is 7.5 - I found this out during mounting, but it was too late to turn back). Several times they tried to bead the tires using a tire lever, but it didn't work, and we had to assemble the wheels with inner tubes. By the way, the tire sidewalls are quite stiff, and judging by the load index of 112, they can withstand up to 1120 kg. Balancing was not very good due to the inner tubes, with some weights exceeding 150 grams. The weight turned out to be around 30 kg, instead of the original 23 kg. I changed to these tires before the snow and on clean asphalt, the tires are noisier than the summer tires, especially at high speeds, but this is predictable - the tread pattern is more open. The tread depth is 11 mm - very solid. At temperatures of -15 to -30°C and below, the tires become "square" after a long period of inactivity and need some time to "round out" after driving. As for traction on ice: when accelerating, the all-wheel drive system does its job, and with these tires, I can drive calmly both straight and uphill. Sometimes I test how the car behaves during sharp acceleration (pedal to the floor) - it starts to wheelspin, the electronic assistants kick in, but in the end, the car accelerates quickly and maintains a straight line. I accelerated up to 160 km/h, while the recommended speed is 190 - the noise and vibration on the steering wheel increase, but that's what happens with inner tubes on tubeless tires. When braking on ice, there are no miracles, and the car pulls. When exiting a turn, the car also tries to skid sideways. Overall, I'm satisfied with the tires, the only thing I'd like is to go even wider, up to 285mm, but there's no room in the fenders. Nevertheless, it's a decent tire, especially when driving off-road, on snow, and on sand.

I'm buying my second set in parts, two 255/60/17 tires at a time

Good time of day! The mileage is negligible and it's hard to say anything. On asphalt, it's quite quiet, although it's an AT tread, winter is coming, I'll add a review. For now, everything suits me!!

Normal tyre at this price.

Excellent tyres, we use them on two cars, my wife and I are both very satisfied.
