Tyre reviews Windforce Catchfors A/T II. Page 2 1328

I didn't expect such quality and comfort from this tire. Super price, delivery on time and without problems. Noise above 100 km/h is moderate, soft ride on wet asphalt, cuts through puddles with ease, holds the track on the MKAD decently. Replaced (Nokian Rotiva AT) —— the difference is noticeable!!!!!

70% dirt and sand.
I really liked it. Holds super, both on dry and after rain. In the forest, it goes well through mud, without getting stuck.
Minus 1 is noisy. But that's understandable)
Haven't tried it in winter yet)

Installed 265/65*18 tires, have already driven around 10,000 km. Bought them specifically for a trip to Mongolia, drove around 1000 km through Mongolian steppes, sands, and rocks, lowered the pressure to 1.2-1.7, no cuts or punctures, just like on asphalt! On snowy mountain passes, it holds confidently, a TLC 80 with MT tires was sliding its rear end in front of me on snow!

I drove 30,000 km in half a year, in the SVO zone!

Broken roads, various shards, metal, and other things on my routes.

Driving at high speed on a broken road, because of the constant risk of UAV attacks.

Mud, slush, black soil, and ruts from KamAZ trucks and armored vehicles.

And now the evaluation:

The tires arrived fresh, three months old.

They are quite light.

Balancing on average 20-30 grams per wheel, and my disks are not new, so it's excellent.

I highlight the pros:

1) durability

They withstand the impact, one puncture in 30,000 km, which is very little, given my conditions.

2) wear resistance

Now the remaining tread is about 40%, which is excellent, 95% asphalt, 5% dirt.

3) traction

Not bad for AT, at 1.6 ATM it's ideal for mud on my car, and on asphalt with this pressure, it sometimes appeared, and it behaves predictably.

As for aquaplaning, the main role is played by the tire width and vehicle weight, not the tire itself.

It definitely drains water, but with my 265/75, it's better not to accelerate over 120 km/h in the rain by default.

On the highway, I accelerated to 180 km/h. Trips of 500-700 km at a pace of 100-140 km/h were smooth and confident.

It doesn't become rigid in the frost at -10°C.

The white letters are still in place, haven't worn off.

Right now, I'm driving through a snowy mess at 100 km/h, on rear-wheel drive, and I think I won't be buying winter tires.

Off-road is not its strong point, won't go there. Overall, the ride on them is comfortable. But there are also its downsides: on the highway, at speed, a low-frequency pressure on the ears appears. Not a hum, but exactly pressure. While they're new, you need to brake carefully - as if you're gliding, but after about 1000 km, this passes. It behaves very well on uneven surfaces, dirt roads. I'll repeat, it won't go into wet clay, but it drives confidently on wet grass. I put winter tires for the winter. This is still an AT, and although it's marked as all-season, I didn't dare drive on it in winter even in Moscow. The tread is not sticky, it will still drive normally on snow, but on ice, there will already be questions.

Ford Explorer 4 vehicle. The tires were very impressive, both on dry asphalt and in terms of behavior on wet surfaces, beyond all praise. Mountainous broken roads, off-road terrain did not raise any questions. The vehicle is operated year-round on the Black Sea coast. In winter, during a snowfall, the vehicle climbed a long ascent to the "Polyana 1389" hotel at the "Gazprom Polyana" resort without any problems, which can be understood by those who have done it in their own car. A seaside beach after a storm (wet sand) did not cause any difficulties. The only place where it couldn't cope was in thawed soil/mud. Indeed, this is universal tires for year-round use in southern regions. Allows

Do not balance. I drove about 1500 km on them. During this time, I balanced them 4 times. Each time, it showed an imbalance of up to 90 grams on each wheel.

After balancing, they ride smoothly for about 30-40 km, then vibration and beating start again. I don't know what to do with them.

This is a copy of BFG AT, and therefore almost everything is fine.
They are noisy, but not too much. I didn't throw it into outright mud, but it handles dirt roads and slopes perfectly.
I definitely recommend buying it.

Good tires, evenly balanced, quiet, soft. I bought them for summer, haven't driven in winter yet. Can be bought safely.

I've tested these tires on various surfaces: rain, puddles, rocky terrain, mud, sand, snow, and ice. Let's go through them one by one. On wet asphalt, there are no problems, they hold the road well, there was no aquaplaning, and they cut through water excellently. On rocky mountain roads, there were no punctures, on dirt roads, they feel confident until it rains and mud clogs the tread... On sand, they feel confident! On snow, the grip is good, on ice, they skid on turns, but that's to be expected since they're not winter studded tires. The balancing was done successfully on the second attempt after 250 km. The tires don't make any noise.
