Hi, I’m looking for quiet winter tires for my car. It’s really important that the tyres in the interior are not too loud. Have read more often now that the Dunlop Winter Sport 4D are more loud in the interior for example. What can you give me for recommendations? Michelin, GoodYear, or something else? Tyre size is 225 / 40 / R18

Hello, have a new car and on it are currently the Vredestein Snowtrac 3. The first impression: On snow wonderful traction. Mountain high no problem (together with ESP and ASR). But also on dry and wet road great. So so far highly recommended!!! tommyboy

Hello together, I put it first in the Skoda Forum, but the question probably fits better here: At the used car purchase (Superb 3T from 2008 or EZ 2009) I bought directly new winter tyres and drove with it 2 years cheerful and complaint-free through the area. Then came the first TÜV since the purchase and everything was in order and I got the badge. “Bloodly” then approached me the workshop (have had an inspection done in parallel) and m I would like to point out that the winter tyres are not suitable for the vehicle: Semperit Speed Grip 2 205/55 R16 (as far as everything is ok) 91 (unfortunately not ok) According to vehicle papers, however, I need tyres with a load index of 94. At the dealer where I bought it I had no success with a complaint (legal steps would not have been promising either) and remained on the tires. Therefore the question: What would you do with as cheaply as possible from the ga 1. Buy new complete bikes and try to sell the others? 2. Buy new tyres and continue using the old rims (if possible)? 3. Or could you get the old tires (only about 10,000 km down and are in good condition accordingly) approved somehow? (a reduced maximum weight of the car wouldn’t be bad, as never loaded) Or do you have any other ideas? Thank you for every tip Many Grü ße Maik

Hello to the tire experts, I just came from my first tire change (on winter tires) and have now 4 Brand New Continental WinterContact TS850 incl. steel rims on my (now) ugly duckling Now I have noticed that the steel rims are external weights, and have thought that I can’t put on wheel caps with clamping ring, or is that unproblematic?` Do you have experience there? Thank you in advance! MfG, Kristian

Hello, since I don’t know about rims, etc. I chose winter tyres and rims for “look” at the dealer of the trust on site. Instead of 17″ (summer tires) I now have 18″ he rim for the winter tires. It is only surprising that the rim over the tire “stands out”, as in the photo to see. IS this normal ? Also the gap does not look ok for me. Would like to hear your opinion.

Hello, I’ve had my new Toyota Verso for a month, on which Michelin Primacy 3 are mounted at the time. Now I have to consider whether I buy winter tyres or sell the Primacy 3 and buy all-year-round tyres for it. I live in the greater Stuttgart area, but sometimes I have to go to the foothills of the Black Forest. The tire size is 215/55/R17 94W. Would you rather like to become Michelin Crossclimate, to Goodyear Vector 4 Seasons G2 or even to a winter tyre? i would probably be more expensive, as I would also need rims and RDKS sensors here and this would be 2 times a year of wheel replacement. The driving performance is about 15,000km/year.

I choose the Michelin A4, the Nokian WR A3 and the Nokian WR D3. I have excluded all others for myself. Especially with the Nokian A3 I find the asymmetrical profile interesting, because it should not be so susceptible to “becoming loud/saw tooth” in the Vgl to the V-profile. Does anyone have one of these 3 tires on it (have) and can pass on pers. experiences to the quietness/noise? Tyre size becomes 195/65/15 or 205/55/16. Thanks already.

Moin I have strange damage on the tread of my tires. The damage is only on the front tires and there only on the outer sides. It looks like the tread is scrubbed there. Where can these damage come from?

Hello, with “joy” I was able to find out that my RDKS shows me a pressure loss. So briefly to the gas station and air controlled. New air inside and at home found that I have a nice screw in the tire. What possibilities do I have now? – Repair? – Replace the defective tire? – Or do I need directly 4 new ones? The latter would not inspire me very much, since 4 new ones cost me directly 800-900 euros thanks to runflat. The tires are about 1 year old and have n still a profile depth of 7.2 mm. Thank you in advance.

Hello All I am looking for summer tyres for my 323er e36. My requirements for the tire: As sporty as possible everyday suitability Price (max. 130€ per piece but would like to cheaper) I know that I will not get a tire for a little money which is good in everything, therefore I would also make smears in the area wet adhesion (but should still be mobile!) and volume if it would benefit the sportiness. Also a semi slick I would not be averse if he had the above annten criteria can meet and even without being sensitively warm driving a certain performance offers greetings Aaron
