Passenger Car Winter Touring Tires Tire Review Highlights

Toyo OBSERVE GSI 6 HP rated 100% while driving a Dodge ram 1500
Driving on a combination of roads for 60 spirited miles
The Observe GSI tire has no equal, there may be studded winter tires that outperform them on ice but from a daily driving POV you cannot beat these. Finally had to recycle mine after over 100,000kms. Will buy another set this winter for sure.

Sailun Iceblazer Alpine Evo rated 73% while driving a Mercedes Benz E350 CDI Coupé 231hp
Driving on a combination of roads for 5000 average miles
After few thousands kilometers and all kinds of weather i have the next impressions: dry handling is nothing special, not unsafe but could be better; dry braking is excellent; on wet weather its quite the opposite - wet handling is amazing (really strange) and wet braking is bad. On snowy conditions, it handles good but braking could be better. Comfort is good, road noise is also good. Rolling resistance (fuel efficiency) - good.

Riken Riken Snow rated 92% while driving a Toyota Camry
Driving on a combination of roads for 5000 average miles
The Tire is very grippy and I can surely rely on it in any conditions, these are winter tires, I went to a very mountanious place, where SUVs were struggling to go, my car is 2018 camry hybrid XLE, it didn't struggle a bit. Would highly recommend.

Taurus Winter 601 rated 67% while driving a BMW 323i 1997
Driving on a combination of roads for 5000 average miles
This tires came with car as winter setup (seller was mehanic and he just replaced it so DOT was fresh when car was bought). I was very sceptical but on wet you can't go sideways with this tire, that's how much grip it has. :) Dry grip is ok but you don't have any feeling on steering wheel with them, also you can drive with confidence, especially RWD cars. Also never had problem with grip in snow (bare in mind that it's on RWD car). Negative side is noise, the faster you drive the noiser they get, so I wouldn't recommend them if you are mainly on motorways. Also, the wear is very high, so after two seasons they have about 5 mm tread depth (less than 10 000 km). If you mainly drive in city and country roads this is ideal. For the price, and everything else considering, I would recommend them, just depends what are you expecting from them (they are not premium and they are not perfect...).

Rotalla Setula W Race S330 rated 89% while driving a Audi A7 3.0TDi Auto
Driving on mostly country roads for 1000 average miles
Modern winter tires have come on leaps and bounds. In the dry they don't feel any different to the Goodyear f1 it had previously, in the wet they feel safe and secure with very little if any understeer when pushing around wet roads. So February 2024 we had 150mm of snow here in Yorkshire and I didn't fail to get anywhere and I always drive to suit the conditions and we had no problems. The tire suits the big Audi A7 Quattro and it's a supremely comfortable and quiet tire.

Imperial Snowdragon 3 rated 60% while driving a Ford Fiesta Zetec S
Driving on a combination of roads for 35000 spirited miles
Car: 2014 Ford Fiesta Red 140HP
Tire life: 4 years (40k km)
Excellent snow and ice grip, acceptable dry weather grip, progressive handling only in the dry. Terrible sudden underwater and oversteer in the wet.

Kleber Krisalp HP3 rated 75% while driving a Skoda
Driving on a combination of roads for 20000 spirited miles
My fifth consecutive winter on this set of tires, and the Kleber are often competitive performers in their own right in smaller sizes and higher profiles. Decent feedback throughout the operating spectrum, I've always sensed the limits and never felt I don't know what's going on. Dry cornering grip swiftly washes out in higher temperatures -- it is a winter tire after all (a few comments on this at the end). Otherwise, in its operating range it is utterly predictable in normal driving and progressive in its tendency to understeer. In the wet, well tested this winter, it's agile and grippy, resisting aquaplaning very well particularly in corners. A question mark over straight line performance in big puddles as it has worn, more cautious. Braking - well in all the above, as I don't seem to have tested its limits so far, thankfully. Not even one ABS shudder. Snow, mainly fresh or slushy, very good grip and handling. Less experience of durably packed sub-zero snow over these years, even at higher altitude.
This brings me to my comment. My natural environment for the past three decades has largely been subalpine, and within a handful of kms in all directions winter tires are compulsory. And yes, in practice they have been a must. Even with the noticeable impact of changing climate a grippier tire in winter remains essential because of the risk of a sudden if short-lived return of snowfall just when you're out there. Firstly, this tire has been my faithful and robust workhorse, coping with the associated crud like mud streams, fallen branches, rocks and stones, and holes that are now more frequently found on 'warmer' but wet alpine roads, and without warning. It's kept me and my car safe.
Secondly, I'll be moving shortly but will still be around these parts in winter. I'm wondering if my winter swap won't be to an all-seasons tire (I value summer tires in summer). I'd like to see more testing of all tires at or beyond the upper extremes of their temperature ranges (eg. 10-17°C and 32-45°C - these have been my realities for the last decade).
No comment on wear - difficult to judge through the low mileage Covid years, plus tires make immense progress in the time that I keep a set. One final comment: in general, I've had better experiences with smaller cars on winter tires.

Viking Wintech rated 73% while driving a Fiat Punto evo 1.6 MJET
Driving on mostly country roads for 3000 spirited miles
Budget tires, average grip in the wet and dry but snow perfomance is great, great tires for snowy areas

Kleber Krisalp HP3 rated 54% while driving a Dacia Duster Eco G 100
Driving on mostly town for 0 average miles
Driven two winter seasons on Dacia Duster
The function of a winter tire is mainly to perform well in snowy conditions. This tire performed well below average on icy snow and below average on fluffy snow. Overall - a disappointment!

Goodride ZuperSnow Z507 rated 62% while driving a Mercedes Benz V220 CDI
Driving on a combination of roads for 11000 easy going miles
High wear, 10000 miles and they are finished. Driving a transfer van (got the van with them) in the Alps; highway, local/mountain roads - not suitable for intensive driving. Maybe for drivers making low mileage. Not bad experience while they were new. Also experienced a flat with one of the fronts.
