TW401... This tire is ok on dry frozen asphalt, not too bad at a thin layer of fresh snow, but in everything else (wet, dry with warmer temperatures, a bit more snow like 2cm+ and it doesn't matter if it's wet snow or dry) it's garbage. 0 confidence compared to Hankook, Yokohama, Sailun, Falken, Maxxis, Taurus(Kormoran)... 2nd worst i've ever driven, absolute worst was Westlake, but that was like 10 years ago. You can think if it's so bad, maybe it will last... – It doesn't, it's below average. You pay less and you get way less than expected, one of the worst value for money. This is my experience, yours could be different.

after ~7000km of use - stay away from snow. 95% of the time I were driving on snow less roads. Didnt have much snow this winter but I did buy these TRIANGLE WINTERX TW401 becouse they did show good result on wet/ice in 1 and only test I found. Yes, they were realy ok on these. I knew they wont be excelent with deep snow - and I guess it right, but still driveable. My guess - after 3000km they do lose his best rubber for snow preformance.
Now on the dry and wet they still ok, (the wear of fronts is 3mm). There is no way I will swap axles for the next winter. Just - keep going all summer or buy summer tires.
Dont use/buy it if u are a line to line quick changer. They have soft sidewalls. I was expecting stronger sidewalls as they are made for middle europe winters.
I would recomend these tires for down side england or channel island weathers in winter.
