Best tire in this price range . I used these tires on my VW Tiguan last year and it was awesome on snow and icy roads . For my Leon FR , again awesome on snow , average on dry . Even the temprature is above 7 degree of celcius , good grip on dry , about wet grip , its performans is below than average . I will definetely buy again . Wear seems good after 8000 miles .

even in sub zero temperatures my crap, balding summer tires gripped better than these in all conditions, including muddy lanes. cannot recommend at all, dread to think how bad they'll be if there actually is any snow...
cant comment on tire wear as these wont be on the car long enough

Bought a Jaguar S Type with these fitted in the summer. Not amazing in the dry, unless your driving is passive, hot or cold weather. Not had a chance to try them in snow, but driving on ice is like driving an ice skate - absolutely no chance of any control. Driving anything more than careful on wet or greasy roads is risky, it's far too easy to slide and have the back end out. MPGs are awful compared to what others are getting with the same engine. Terrible tires. I still have over 3mm of tread on all 4 tires and I'm swapping them now for Vredestein Ultrac Satins which are classed A Wet Grip, B Fuel Efficiency - hopefully be tonnes better to drive from then on. The Petlas SnowMasters are rated C for Wet Grip and E for Fuel Efficiency.

PS: Camskill.com is the cheapest website for tires - order them and find somewhere to fit them and you will probably find you save shed loads. For example my local garages were offering 245/40/18 Vredestein Ultrac Satins for around £130 a corner fitted. Camskill worked out £95 a tire after delivery, and fitting 4 tires is costing my £48 at my local garage. All in all, I'm saving £92.

We are using this tires in our astra 1.4t 140hp in Ä°stanbul having a range of roads from highways to low speed bumpy streets. The car is giving perfect response in every conditions including heavy snow. Wonderful tire for a budget product.

best in snow good quality price

Ideal price/performance winter tire for those with a passive driving style. Good grip in cold/snow conditions, wearability very good. No reasons to look for more expensive tires when you do not expect top-performance

Highly sufficient winter tire for me. I have bouht it twice.

Did research and although none of the 'tests' actually featured these tires I based my choice on the reviews and had them fitted just a few days before the recent snowfall - and so glad I did. Other cars, even 4 wheel drives, were stuck on the local hills but I sailed past with no problem. Massive improvement in traction on snow & ice - highly recommended.Can't comment on wear yet, but for the price an excellent buy.

In temperatures >10 C:
OK all round.
Good in dry snow.
Great on dry ice/black ice.
Poor in wet snow.
Horrible on wet ice.
Braking pulls to the side (depending on road surface tilt).

In temperatures 10 C>:
Too soft.
Poor lateral stability.
Poor grip.
Car becomes wobbly if emergency maneuver performed.
Very sensitive to bad wheel alignment.
Braking pulls to the side (depending on road surface tilt).
