Performance Analysis
Drawn from 1 tests. Updated October 28, 2026.
The Marshal WinterCraft Ice Wi31 has one independent studded winter test, with a clear dry-road strength but a weaker overall result. In the 2017 Autocenter Studded Winter Tire Test it finished eighth of ten, despite leading dry braking at 30.96m. The testers also praised dry handling, making dry asphalt its most favorable part of this comparison.
Its winter results were less convincing. Snow braking was last of ten at 18.63m, 6.9% longer than best. Ice braking was fourth at 12.98m, but still 27.8% longer than best, and the testers criticised ice grip and handling. The relatively better ice-braking placing therefore does not establish good overall ice behavior. Wet braking was seventh at 37.66m, 18.1% longer than best, while rolling resistance was ninth at 10.09kg/t, 42.5% above best. This single test points to dry stopping ability alongside shortcomings in snow braking, ice handling and efficiency; it cannot show whether those findings recur in other sizes or comparisons.
