Tyre reviews Viatti Brina Nordico. Page 21 7752

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.

I fitted the snow chains, the tires got quieter and the braking distance shortened, or so it seems. The only thing that's not quite right is the braking on a snow-covered road with a layer of ice underneath. A longer braking distance compared to the previous winter tires.

The cat-tracked snow, the asphalt is grippy, on the loose snow, where the asphalt has deflections, but not critical, where the snow covers the ice you have to strictly control the speed regime. Surprisingly, the vehicle enters the corners well, at first, I was overcautious, but, as it turned out, I was wrong, the studs work well.

I spent a couple of days driving on snow and now I can draw some conclusions. Overall impression: I was right about the tires! In turns, the grip is normal, and at the same time, on a straight line, you can barely hear any chirping and there is no wheelspin during braking. It handles snow normally, although I didn't accelerate very much.

Here is the translated text:

And then came winter and it all became clear, with the snow blower on the studs)). The strong point is snow and asphalt, on the ice it's not very clear, during lane changes and turns the tire holds up well, no complaints, but during braking it behaves like a snow blower.

Here is the translation of the text into English:

That's the first cold working day gone, I drove about 60 km today and I can say that the tire has genuinely delighted me. The braking distance has been reduced and I've been approaching the red light from the car in front every time.
