Dacia Duster 4x4 · 215/65 R16 · 45 866 km
★★★★★

<p>I'm using on a Dacia Duster. Before, for winter, on this car I had Michelin Latitude Alpin 1 and Kleber Krisalp HP3 (same as Bf Goodrich). The snow grip was very good for 4 winters (same as Kleber), never let me down. The wet grip was also very good. But what surprised me a lot, was the emergency braking, that was very very good, on wet and dry. The only minus, was that I need to make some corrections on the directions compared with a summer touring tyre (michelin primacy 3 or hankook), but the care never lost control with those tyres, even if I drove too fast for it. In conclusion I will buy again (bf goodrich or kleber, in function of price).</p>

These tyres are simply on another level on snow and ice, can't recommend them enough.
On dry, they are decent for a snow tyre, but could be better. The water evacuation is amazing.
Amazing tyre overall for its price and wear.

One day, I had to turn off the main road and found myself on an incredibly slippery, icy path. It was so slick that even winter boots couldn’t grip the ice properly. This happened on a steep uphill section of a mountain road. When traffic came to a stop, I got out of the car and realized just how dangerously slippery the icy forest road was—completely untreated, with no salt or sand. That was also the moment I truly understood how good these tires are.
