Kleber Krisalp HP3 Owner Reviews
Review this tireWhat owners say summarised from 26 reviews
Most drivers rate the Kleber Krisalp HP3 highly, praising its strong snow and wet performance, low noise/comfort for a winter tire, and decent wear/value. Dry grip and handling precision are adequate for normal driving but can feel soft with noticeable understeer if pushed; several users report a 'jelly/boat-like' feel. A minority mention noise at certain speeds, vibration/manufacturing issues in specific batches, and weaker performance on ice or slush at higher speeds. Overall sentiment is positive with safety and winter capability as standout strengths.

I have these tires for a 3rd winter season now, driven about 30k km. The wear is good, have a lot of thread left. As a winter tires they perform good on dry and on wet, even while driving aggressive. They are comfortable and silent almost as an ordinary summer tire. There is one issue about sound though - when the car goes between 90 and 100 km/h, there is that strange noise like a humming or roaring. Winter performance is average, on dry snow they perform OK, the grip is there, stopping is good. On ice and on wet snow/slush they perform below average. On sheer ice there is almost zero control. Same goes on slushy snow, especially on higher speeds - when you go on 80km/h and turn right, the car still goes forward. Thank goodness no accidents happened, but there were many dangerous situations on heavy winter weather, heavy snow in highway is a terrible experience with these tires. These tires are perfect for light and soft winter though.
In conclusion: Would not buy again, because the weather in eastern Europe is very random - sometimes heavy winter, sometimes there is almost no snow. For soft winter I would recommend this tire.

Very good tire for value. Lasted 40000 miles or 60000 km mostly motorways at 150kmh and town driving. Had chance to put on test on snow and ice at mountain road close by and have excellent feedback. Always have chain in back just in case. Lasted 2 years driving in winter and summer conditions and i will buy it again

This was my first winter season with those tires. They have good dry and wet grip. I haven't experienced extreme winter conditions with them yet, but there was no problem with the small amount of snow.
Feedback, comfort and wear is also good. The only bad thing about this tires is that they became pretty loud after 3 months of driving. So I'll have to think about it if I would buy them again.
For average user and for this price they are pretty good tires. If the possible noise doesn't bother you, go and buy them.

Didn't have any stressful situations with these tires in the snow, but I have tested them in the snow and they seemed good. I did have a stressful situations in dry and wet grip and they performed great and quite good respectively. They are very quiet as far as winter tires go, can't say nothing about wear. Obviously with winter tires you don't push them to the limit too much, but for more spirited driving they will not dissapoint as long as you don't go overboard.

Let me first say: Tires are EXCELLENT on the snow!
I drive BMW (RWD), and I had passed through some really deep snow. My bumper was pushing snow at the front but tires managed to push me up the hill. I'm really impressed.
They are good on all kind of snow; compacted, fresh, slush.
Dry grip is bad compared to summer tire, but wet is good/comparable.
They are rolling quietly, but are noisy over the bumps.
There is around 5-6mm thread left, so I expect 15000 more miles until 4mm.
Definitely recommend.

Fitted for about 6000km by now. Good winter tires, that grip very well in the wets (which suits the Danish winter well, as we rarely get snow). I have however had these in the fresh snow a few weeks back, and they do grip well and are predictable.
My only gripe with this tire, is that they seem to have quite a ring/singing when on wet, smooth asphalt - this is mostly noticeable during acceleration, and only of the very smoothest of asphalt, but a nuisance nonetheless. This is enough for me to consider not getting these again.
