Viatti Bosco Nordico 265/65 R17 112T (studded)

I decided to take a budget tire. Everything suited me, I didn't miss. It holds the road. It crunches on ice. It tramples on snow. Adequate boots. And the price was 5900. Everything is OK.

Excellent choice for the given price. There are virtually no competitors, unless you consider China. The only drawback is balancing when replacing, requiring the installation of additional weights to bring it up to the established average standards. In all other respects, it's quite normal.

Size 215/65/R16 T98, alloy wheels

Service life - 5 years (seasons).

Place of operation: - 3 seasons - Uhta city (Komi Republic),

- 2 seasons - N. Novgorod city.

Wear resistance is excellent. From 2016 to 2021, the studs are almost all in place (within reasonable limits), and the tread is like it was hardly driven.

Operation: 65% in the city, 35% on dirt roads with various coverings in forests and fields of the above regions (hunting, fishing, berries, mushrooms). Handling on snow - normal, snow slush - normal, ice - normal, wet autumn-spring road - normal. Aquaplaning - not noticed. In the summer (after the winter season) I "re-shoe" with the standard Barguzin. In the forest, field (after and before "re-shoeing") in the fall and spring (winter - when there is a reasonable amount of snow, not over the wheel arches) it allows you to drive off, drives quite confidently on dry dirt, light chernozem, dirt roads (including after rains). However, this is still not an AT or MT.

Now, for the 6th season, I bought two new tires. The reason: by the end of the 5th season, a "hernia" appeared on one tire, plus I drove 5 seasons in winter without a winter spare. Therefore, I decided to put a new pair on one axle, and accordingly, a spare. Maybe there is better rubber in terms of specifications - I won't argue, I'm not a car expert, not a racer - this brand suits me perfectly on this car.

Good tires for snow and light off-road use. I mainly drive in the city, but sometimes I go to the countryside as well. The sidewalls are sturdy, and the braking distance on ice is acceptable. For such a price in 205 70 15, you won't find anything cheaper, and as long as there's no reason to look, that's good.

Great tires - took for the Jimny, where they proved themselves simply great over 2 seasons - the Jimny really moves well in any snow with them.
Then, took the same for the D-Max - performed just as great on the front wheel drive.
A bit noisy due to the studs, but not critical =)
In general, for adequate money - a great choice !!!!

I rode one season, mileage of 8000 km, studs are in place, minimal wear, excellent on snow, ice on a 3. Very noisy. Otherwise, no questions, price / quality ratio is fair. Exploited in Moscow and region.

Among winter tires, it's a good option to consider buying, with good quality and a decent appearance, although who cares about the appearance of the tire, after all, it's the characteristics that matter. Balancing came out at 25-30 grams per wheel, taking into account the studs, it's not bad. The tire's grip on snow is flawless, though I wouldn't say the same about the ice, but you can still ride it slightly, as if everything is holding up.

The tire has been in service since 2018. The wear is even and not too fast, overall the material is of good quality, no blisters. Regarding the driving characteristics, everything is also quite good. The adhesion on snow, ice is very good. I would like to mention the speed characteristics of the tire, which are also good. One minus is the noise from the studs.

Normal tires for such a reasonable price. Good traction with a snowy road - a solid four out of five. A decent hardness, as a winter tire should be, even though I live in the Chelyabinsk Oblast and winter temperatures are not very low. The tread is of excellent quality, used for 2 seasons, and wear is around 6-8 at most, imperceptible to the eye.

He bought the tires in 2017 when the price of tires was slightly lower than it is today, although the tires themselves are fully up to standard. Grips well on a snowy road and could have slid on ice, if needed, as the studs were not put in for nothing. Speaking of which: they sit firmly in "nests", only recently (on the third year) started to wear down a little and started to fall out, a total of 13-15 units have been
