Kleber Quadraxer 3 Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 28 reviews

Owners rate the Kleber Quadraxer 3 highly overall (85% average, with no outright negative reviews), most often praising its low road noise and cushioned, comfortable ride. Winter ability is a standout too, with many reporting strong traction in snow and dependable cold-weather grip, backed up by generally secure wet and dry grip. The main drawback is that a smaller but noticeable group mention the tire getting noisier or losing performance as it wears, and a few also note a slight hit to fuel economy.

Fitted 3 years ago -

Initial impressions were very good, first year being absolutely fantastic and exactly what I was expecting given the reviews and tests submitted for this tire. However, it was during 2nd year where the tread got harder, tires got noisier and grip wasn't as good.

3rd (and final) year, the tread on the front tires is full of cracks and right at the limit of the snow tread sign, noisy af and not too grippy.

The car to which these were fitted was driven slowly, hidden from direct sunlight when parked, and for only 21k km, I would definitely not buy these again.

Very good quality all-season tires for the price. I have Continental tires on the back of the car, bought 1 month after the Kleber ones. I had a flat, and they behave the same way despite the price difference.

4 years, including 3 winters of which 2 typical central eastern Europe's snowy ones. Great in the snow - problems only 3 times maybe startig up the hill in the snow with ice. Weaker on warm wet - but still better than typical winter tire. I drove mostly in the city and on motorways. People say there is difference in quality between Made in Poland and Romania and Poland is much better (depends on the size, mine was Poland). Next winter would be styruggle but until October will be still ok. Saved a lot $ on changing season tires.

When new had good performance.
After one summer, got hardened and performance dropped from 8/10 to 6/10.
On icy sludge became almost unusable. Took me 10m to stop where others did it in 4m with abs activated.
Not happy, never again.

I drive this tire for a year in all conditions. I didn't see any difference between kleber quadraxer 3 and my previous continental summer tires in wet and dry conditions. I see difference now in ice and snow condition when I compare it with real winter tire, but I'm very pleased how it performs, lot better than I expected. Yes, winter tire is better on snow and ice but this cleber tire is very close, I drive little bit more careful and there is no need to worry.

After about 25,000 km on the Kleber Quadraxer 2, I decided to switch to the Quadraxer 3. In the photo, the QD2 are shown at the top, while the QD3 are at the bottom. Wear on the QD2 was extremely minimal (as shown), thanks to extensive extra-urban use, keeping the car in a garage, and meticulous pressure checks.

Compared to the previous model, under the same conditions and pressures, the improvement is clear—especially in dry road performance. Steering feels much more direct and enjoyable, while the tires remain quiet and safe. I will update the review as mileage increases.

They are extremely sensitive to pressure changes, so check it often. The price is higher than the QD2, but justified by the improvement.

The time has come to replace the Klebers. What an excellent tire they have been. The set has lasted just over 58,000 kms. What is really impressive is even as the tire tread depth dropped, the grip in the wet did not deteriorate. In fact there is still plenty of tread on the tires, they are not down to the wear bars yet. I am only changing them early as I will be driving through the Alps and Dolomites in the next few months, otherwise if winter was behind me, I would have left them on longer.

I have fitted Michelin Cross Climate tires to previous cars, but the Klebers are just as good - if not slightly better with regard to ride comfort and low noise. I would have bought another set, but I am in the U.K. at the moment and the Klebers seem hard to get hold of.

Just bought 4 tires for my Renault Grand Scenic 3 MPV. I have to say that the first thing I noticed is the comfort. Tires are extremely comfort. Handling is surprisingly very good (according to my previous tires). There's no snow yet so I can't write my experience on that matter. But considering first impresions and the price I paid (100€ per tire) I'd surely buy them again.

Have these tires on my Kadjar for 1 year now. I had no chance to test them on heavy snow but they were great on few days of snowy roads and thin ice.The rest is great, used them from -10C to +40C and have no complain. Very good on dry and wet roads. The best part of these tires is comfort - very quiet and very comfortable. Before them I had 6 years old premium summer tires and these Quadraxer 3 outperformed them significantly. Recommending them for regular usage and drivers that do not "drive on the edge".
