4/5Michelin CrossClimate 3They do perform really well when it is cold, under 5 degrees. They are good on snow and when the conditions are dry and mild they are just ok - not as good as summer tyres regardless of what some reviews say - although they do perform better than winter tyres when it is warm. I would prefer to have two sets of wheels so I could have separate winter and summer tyres but they are fine as an overall compromise.
4/5Kumho PS72Outstanding traction in wet and dry conditions, an excellent option for those wanting reliable performance from their tyres.
5/5Continental Eco Contact 7Excellent control in wet conditions, and I am very happy with the way they perform. I can certainly feel the difference from my last set of tyres. No complaints, I've had an easy driving experience so far.
4/5Goodyear Vector 4 Season G3I decided to contact some reviews on these snow tyres after watching YouTube videos on snow tyres. I fitted them on my 18-inch Monza alloys for the winter because the 19-inch original tyres on my Mk7.5 Golf GTI are not good for light snow conditions here in the North East. I have to say I was a bit underwhelmed by them because it was over 10 degrees when I fitted them, and obviously, these tyres are meant for much colder conditions. We got some snow early December, and the tyres dealt with everything beautifully, even at over 70 mph in fresh snow and the car felt nice and stable with no skid or slide. They even worked well in my estate with just a little wheel spin. The downside is of course, like all snow tyres, they don't work that great in the rain, and they will skid a bit, but I suppose I do like to drive my GTI a bit aggressively. The combination of these and my Michelins on the back of the Golf is excellent. These winter tyres are good and I may even get another set to match all four, as the rears are from a used tyre shop and are 13 years old but were new then.
5/5Michelin Primacy 5I have been really impressed with how well the new tyres handle the wet conditions of the country roads. I have to make an unexpected stop at times because of oncoming traffic, and as I drive 14 miles each day, I really appreciate how the tyres perform and are so quiet.
5/5Bridgestone Potenza S001The new tyres handle all types of weather really well, and the road noise is tolerable.
5/5Bridgestone Turanza T005I fitted the same tyres again as I prefer to comply with the recommendation of the car manufacturer.
