Tires GENERAL TIRE or Barum

Barum Tires

Le avevo 4 stagioni sulla Fiat punto del 2008, la mia prima auto.

Mi sono trovato molto bene, l'ho tenuta dal 2019 al 2022, sono andato anche sulla neve in montagna, in nevicata piena, e ho avuto zero problemi.

Pros: Mi sono trovato bene
Cons: Poi ho grippato
Vehicle: Fiat Punto
Mileage: 75000 km

Barum Tires

Avute per 4 anni su una c3. Uso misto, in ordine: collina, citt\u00e0, autostrada a velocit\u00e0 sostenuta.

In inverno nevica poco da me, ma le abbiamo testate un paio di settimane fa (vecchie di 4 anni) e siamo usciti senza problemi dal vialetto sterrato e innevato.

Pros: si sono comportate bene
Vehicle: Citroen C3

  • Grip:
  • Noise:
Rating 5.0

Michelin X-Ice. Haven't found anything better. No amount of Canadian snow or ice has been able to stop my SUV and when those are on, and I live in a hilly area.\n\nI have General Artimaax on my other car, they are ok, but road noise is insane. Won't buy those again.

Pros: Haven't found anything better
Cons: road noise is insane

Barum Tires

I got new Barums for this winter and they’re doing absolutely fine (also on a Golf). Recently done 110 on snowed highway while everyone else was in the right lane doing like 80 and they felt perfectly stable. On wet road they also seem to do well.

Pros: perfectly stable, do well

GENERAL TIRE Tires

I've been happy with General G Max on a few cars and going to continental extreme contact dws 06 plus next set of shoes on whatever car needs them first.

Pros: happy with General G Max

GENERAL TIRE Tires

I do have good experience with true winter tires (General Tire ArctiMax) and I will say that they will still slide even at slower speeds if it's ice and hard packed snow and you're aggressive enough with the controls.

Cons: slide on ice, hard snow
