I took a couple of those because I couldn't find a replacement for the blown-out Hankook. It's been half a season in the back. Then I switched to the front. The tire is really quiet (the quietest of all the ones I've used before), which is a plus on asphalt. It's worse in the snowy mash than Hankook, A/B/C slippers a bit late, but overall the tire is predictable, no problems with it. It's been driving on asphalt

I bought tires in this shop, 245/75/16, for my UAZ Patriot. The tires are good, quiet, soft, and the car can still drive through the snow until it gets stuck. I've already checked, but they couldn't be pulled back with a tow rope because the studs are too low. Be careful on ice, but the tires are really quiet. As for the price-quality ratio, it's definitely worth it. I can't say about the wear resistance,

I've driven through a season, the price-quality is super, what else do you need? It simply super drives on snow, on the ice you need to be careful due to low-set studs, but there is no noise, only a small roar is present, of course, but it's much quieter than the Nordman 4, for example, not one stud has come loose. Let's see how it will be after this season, I've been driving with plus temperatures for a month now

Great tire for the price! Spent last year in winter, it was a bomb! The tire is without studs. My car is quite heavy and it's not always easy to stop, even in summer, not to mention winter. On this tire in the winter it's like driving in summer on a summer tire... I highly recommend it. Before I drove on Michelin Latitude Alpin, which was awful compared to the Korean NEXEN.

I chose a budget-friendly tire.
I stopped at this one and didn't regret it.
In comparison to analogues in the given price category, the main plus is silence.
I drove about 400-500 km carefully.
The handling is at a decent level, both on dry and wet roads.
Over the winter, I drove about 11-13 thousand km. The driving style is mixed, with a prevalence of aggressive- Vehicle:

I've been running the studded tires for 7 years now. Those tires I bought in December 2013 (215/70/R16) were studded, but there were no studs. I ran them for 2 days, was satisfied. Compared to the summer Michelin M+S (summer tires that allow snow travel), it's just great! Bridgestone is indeed noisy, but that's not a problem for me. On snow - super, on ice - probably as all

I spent a long time choosing tires and finally decided to buy! I ended up choosing Nexen in size 195/65 R15. Although the tread pattern somehow looked convincing, I thought it resembled the Haku 7. I installed them and drove, and didn't notice any significant difference from winter tires. They do make a noise, but I'd say it's more of a hum, especially when driving at 60 km/h. However, I think they will settle in time and become

Bought 225/65 R17 tires for RAV4 (IV generation). The pattern looks reassuring. The tread is quite deep. Therefore, there is almost no noise from the tread while driving on the asphalt. BUT for snow, it holds poorly...
My average rating is 4 out of 5.

I've been driving on these tires all winter and overall impressions are good. A big plus is the quiet ride, but it's a double-edged sword, as the studs are quite deep and sometimes don't perform well in high-speed turns and braking on ice. After a year of driving, there's almost no wear on the studs, they're still in place, and there are no cracks. I've been driving in the city and on the highway, and I've hit potholes at

Ran about 3,000-4,000 km (R16). For budget option - EXCELLENT. All studs are in place, handling is excellent on ice and snow. Compared to HKPL-5, I haven't noticed any significant difference yet. We'll see how it goes from here.
