  • The Chinese Triangle tire boasts in its marketing that it was developed in Finland. Despite this, it has an unusually hard rubber compound with poor winter grip. On icy curves, it loses grip at the front without warning, causing the car to understeer heavily without the driver being able to do anything.

    Across the ice and snow subtests, the grip level is on par with the used tire in this comparison. In the tests on bare ground, Triangle performs somewhat better compared to the competition, but it never manages to leave the lower half of the results. Disturbing road noise solidifies an already certain last place among the new tires. In fact, the points are not even enough to beat the eight-year-old wildcard entry. It ends up in a shared last place.

Latest Triangle Snowlink PL01 Reviews

Given 84% while driving a Skoda Octavia estate (205/60 R16) on a combination of roads for 4,240 easy going miles
This is a follow up review to complement my review from November 8, 2024.

I have managed to survive through the winter season and now I have installed summer tires on my car.
The nordic winter this season was not very nordic. It was not very cold and the snow came in big blizzards covering everything and then slowly melting away. Most of the winter season was spent driving on salted wet roads and packed snow-ice covered areas. The occasional blizzards with huge amounts of snow made for some fun driving though.
Even though the conditions were changing heavily, I never felt like the tires are lacking in any performance category. The grip on snow is excellent and the car feels stable. Grip on compacted snow-ice with occasional water lubricant coating, well, it's non-existent for any tire but even then I managed to get up a 10% incline that was completely covered with the aforementioned substance.
The performance on wet and dry tarmac is good at least - I can not say that I went looking for the limits of these tires on tarmac because at legal speeds around town and on highways the limits were nowhere near to be found. 140km/h (which is slightly illegal) on a cold wet highway was also comfortable and tires performed well.
Comfort and fuel consumption are very subjective. I would say the tires were very nice and soft absorbing many of the bumps on the roads. I have a short strip of very badly maintained street on my commute and just this morning, as I installed summer tires yesterday, I felt how bad the street actually was. Winter tires absorbed most of the bumps and felt like I'm rolling on a decent road. It does lead to a duller steering feedback but for the everyday family car, this is not a problem. Fuel economy change is negligible or at least not measurable since cold starts and bad conditions reduce economy and it is not easily determined how much did the tires change.
Wear after 6822km is so minor I thought the tires are brand new. Forgot to take the slide caliper but

All in all, for the price I paid for those tires (240€ per set), they performed flawlessly. My driving style is calm with occasional "let's have fun" moments mixed in. I never felt that there is a "lack of tires" or that I couldn't get past a particularly badly snowed or iced road. Everything just worked.
I recommend to buy if the price is right.

Installed the tires few weeks ago. Well, they haven't killed me yet. Quite contrary - I feel they are nice and comfortable tires on wet and dry asphalt. Very soft and smooth and the car feels very eager to roll along. No noticeable fuel economy change compared to summer tires.
Granted, I have yet to see any snow or ice with them, but I'm fairly certain I will survive the winter.
Will report back once winter is done. Initial phase is promising.
