    I hoped to see some more winter tire tests from UK-magazines, is there anyone (Like EVO) out there?

      Only Auto Express do a winter test in the UK, for other tests you'll need to visit German magazines, or check them out on this very site :)

        Already did it ;)

        UK-magazines reviews summer tires later than german magazines so I could be that new launched tires are to find in these review. So I hoped a UK-magazine could have a review with the new Michelin einter tires.

          Sadly the Auto Express winter test is still performed in q1 or q2 of the year, just published later than the european tests!

            German magazines also test winter tires in January/February of the year and start to publish it in September

      Michelin?

      Michelin could have a bad saison, two new tires (Alpin 6 and Pilot Alpin 5) but no review out there. I´m not sure whether they can beat Conti, Dunlop, Goodyear and Pirelli (successor for Sottozero 3 should be released next year). Michelin and Bridgestone are the brands which I wouldn´t buy without reviews beacuse both have weak points. Bridgestone in general, Michelin likes to sacrifice best performance for longevity

    The CC+ beats the TS860 in snow? Strange results

      Agreed, I guess it just show's the fickle tire testing can sometimes be!
