Winterreifen ist da wohl der falsche Ausdruck. Eher Herbst oder Frühjahresreifen. Denn schon bei wenig Schnee wird dieser Reifen zur Rutschpartie, wenn man denn überhaupt anfahren kann. Denn Traktion ist kaum mehr vorhanden. Auf trockener oder Nasser Fahrbahn zeigt er sich jedoch gutmütig, auch das Aquaplaningverhalten ist in Ordnung. Für Flachland und Autobahn- Piloten sicher die keine schlechte Wahl.

Rundum ein toller Reifen, einziges Manko: Traktion bei Schnee. Gerade das kann im Winter aber gefährlich werden!

Über Verschleiß und Griffigkeit bei Schnee kann ich noch keine Aussage treffen
