Tyre reviews Yokohama Ice Guard IG50+. Page 2 599
- Rate
I've been driving on tires of this brand for seven years. I immediately refused to use studs in Moscow and the region. This is already the second set of tires of this brand, the first ones were LG60. The tires fully satisfy me. Soft ride, excellent wear resistance and tolerance to minor side impacts, good directional stability on asphalt, and when braking in snowy slush, it shows a good result. The price is also reasonable, and in terms of quality, it does not concede to more expensive brands. I will say right away that it is not suitable for racers on winter roads. After 140 km/h, you risk flying off if you hit ice or snowy slush. The recommended comfortable speed in winter is up to 120, provided that you know how to control the car. I definitely recommend it to calm drivers with a cool head.

I installed this model on a not-so-new Nissan Almera. I've already tested it and want to share my first impressions. The tire is comfortable to handle, enters turns smoothly, doesn't slip and doesn't skid. I don't feel any ruts on it. It copes with small snowdrifts in the courtyard on a solid 5, and on rolled snow, it's just excellent. For city conditions, such a tire is more than suitable. In the winter, I don't drive over 100 km/h, no matter how good the traction is, so it's super for calm driving. I have nothing to say to winter racing enthusiasts. My mileage is still small, I've only been driving for 2 months.

Good tires for their money. In urban conditions, not much is required from the rubber in winter, and studs are not needed at all if you don't plan to travel outside the city in winter. The ice guard is enough for me for everyday tasks, for work. It brakes like a cat, only with "soft paws", and is very confident in turns, without losing traction. I recommend it to everyone whose car it fits!

Excellent tires for the money. Many of my acquaintances run on Yokohamas. I bought tires with Russian marking in 2018 and have not regretted it. I didn't expect anything more at this price with a normal driving style. The main thing is the confident grip on the road, good maneuverability, and predictable braking. They performed excellently on compact snow, ice, and loose snow, too. Noise is minimal, the tires themselves are soft. They require minimal attention in operation

Excellent tires for their price range. They performed great in the city. I frequently drive on highways for business trips, and they've done an excellent job. They hold the road quite well, especially in wet conditions, and on ice, if you're not too aggressive with your speed, they're also quite good. I've been driving on studded tires for a long time, but I don't see the point in them at all. I would recommend these tires to everyone with a budget that's

The third season is standing, the impressions are brief - soft and quiet tires. Snow and ice hold perfectly, when starting from a place there is no wheelspin. On the highway, you feel confident, the car does not jerk, although I don't drive particularly fast. Over the winter, it didn't let me down once, also tested on ice. For me, it's an ideal and inexpensive choice.

They hold confidently on ice, braking is even. In the city, they don't float on snowy porridge, and they steer normally in a rut. On asphalt, there is noise without howling. In the frost, they don't become stiff, they hold the trajectory when changing lanes, without skidding. Wear for the season looks adequate. In the yard, I can drive up a hill without problems, even when the snow is already rolled up.

Bought at a good price back in September! So the sleds were prepared in advance. But, these tires are not sleds at all, but good and confident, manageable! On wet asphalt, in slush or wet snow, the grip is stable. The tires are soft, there is no hum, the ride has become smooth, the suspension shakes less. They completely suit me!

Three seasons have passed, the state is good. They do not become brittle, do not turn into plastic, the wear over this time is even. In terms of grip, everything is in order, it does not lead in turns. Fuel consumption has decreased on them, I think. Good balance between comfort and safety.

The tire does not become brittle, does not vibrate and does not make noise. In terms of handling, everything is fine - there is no skidding even in the loosest snow. On packed snow, it also grips the road quite well.
