Tyre reviews Viatti Brina Nordico. Page 20 7350

These are the best tyres I've ever driven on. They were designed for people and offer a level of comfort in urban driving conditions comparable to a premium vehicle. Nothing creaks or rattles and the car handles slippery road surfaces without losing traction.

I drive over 50,000 km a year, was planning to change the car in the summer, so I bought tires for a year. Did not manage to change, will be driving through the second winter. No issues with the first season, the only thing is that there are not enough studs for ice. Otherwise, everything is in order.

I used to drive on a non-studded winter tire for two years before this and roughly imagined what a studded winter tire in the Nokian Nordica would be like. But two things surprised me a lot - the correction of the trajectory on ice and the exit from the tracks. The handling on ice is very good, especially if the speed is no more than 60 km/h. The exit from the tracks goes without additional correction by the steering wheel and the accelerator.

I bought these tires two years ago as a tire with studs. The main thing I wanted was to feel confident in the city both on dirty asphalt and on an icy road. I also needed studs because my house is at a small elevation and it is hard to get to on studs.

I have been using these tires for a week now, already ran 1300 km in 6 days on almost all road types. Definitely satisfied with the tires, only weakness is the ice performance on a highway. In city everything is fine with the steering, but on a patch of ice-ridden highway I went down to 80, normally I don't drop below 80 even on spikes. On the second car Viatti brina nordico is performing not worse than NF100.

In reality, the tires are on the solaris, but it's somehow not in the list of vehicles. I wanted to buy the lippy, but the salesperson convinced me to take this studded one instead, arguing that it's a studded lippy. I've read about such cases happening, but I tried it for the first time. My impressions are: - In the city, on cleaned roads, it rides like a lippy, with the proviso that it's less stable

I mostly drive on good tires in the city, so the asphalt behavior is crucial here and it's fine, small bits of ice are almost invisible. The tires are quiet, quite soft, yet the softness doesn't impede handling.

I think this is the future of the tire industry in our country. It is a perfect solution for a megacity. Handling on a slippery road or in a snowdrift is much better than on a slippery one and the tires are quiet and soft. I bought a second set for my wife, after using it for a little over a month on my car.

They were fitted with studs on the tread, effectively making the tire soft and quiet, yet much more stable in corners and during overtaking. On ice, they grip quite well but fall short of a fully studded tire.

The salesman convinced me to try them, saying they were tread wear indicators on the tires - to be honest they look more like tread than wear indicators, but curiously the tire is quiet. The tires are fine, although I would have liked to try the Bridgestone.
