Winter tire test 215/60 R17 from the publisher Авторевю 2025 p.

High traction and good handling on ice
Good handling on snow
Decent performance on dry and wet pavement

Stiff ride
Produces low-frequency hum

Yokohama are efficient on ice and snow, and they also have decent gripping properties on asphalt, but the comfort level leaves much to be desired

Acceptable performance on ice
Excellent traction in deep snow
Good ride comfort
Low noise level

Long braking distance on dry pavement and overall weak performance on asphalt

They are well-suited for the countryside, where the roads are poorly cleaned

Good performance on snow

Mediocre traction on ice

Tires with 10-millimeter studs were tested, which had a very small protrusion after running-in, which affected the performance on ice. At the same time, a recommendation was made to use 10.3 mm long studs, which should improve traction on icy surfaces

Good ride smoothness
High acoustic comfort

Poor performance on ice and wet asphalt
Unjustifiably high price for tires made in PRC

Hankook, made in China, performed very poorly on ice and wet asphalt, and the indicators on dry pavement were also average

Helpless on ice
Very poor traction in deep snow

Very short braking distance on dry and wet surfaces

Suitable only for urban cleared streets
