Opinion from outside the UK
Welcome. On dry pavement tires behave well. The problem starts in the snow. During the first winter tire went nicely. There was no problem with driving in the snow, uphill trips not caused any problems. The situation has changed drastically even during the second season. It was harder to move the snow, let alone ice. Now, after three seasons, although 6 mm tread, tires have lost a great deal for the new. It is easy to break traction when starting off. During the anti-lock braking the car still running. Guilty as it is a mixture of rubber, which is made tire. It is very sensitive to aging. Also riding on tires Nokian, purchased at the same time as Firestony, with a similar tread depth and quality of the ride is quite different. Car much better moves and stops on these tires. To sum up: tires can and good, but only for the first winter. This is followed by a rapid loss of their properties winter. Read more Collapse

Firestone Winterhawk EVO bought in autumn 2012 and waited with the opinion that przejeździć the season and see it in all conditions. Tire behaved superbly on dry and wet roads, going softly and straight as a rail, but the problem appeared in the snow, slush, on ice not to mention, because no tire on ice does not behave well. The snow and slush there is no safe braking and even possibly moving from the lights is a problem. The second car I Dębica Frigo one axis and the other eight years with Michelin tires quite worn tread and there was no problem. If I chose the second time, I'm sure I would have bought a cheaper Dębica or a stimulant, because this is a winter tire Firestone name only. Read more Collapse

The choice fell on Firestone because I everywhere Nokian W + could not buy. Yes, but to the point, that is, very quiet tires (low rolling resistance), the trip to the dry conditions without reservation, crossed the mud like knife through butter, and remains stable. And now some drawbacks: Even on the icy asphalt loses grip when braking, when you start well but it still goes. Not yet tested in the wet snow - has small cubes (but many sections) and I do not know if it does not become clogged with snow - but these are my guesses when it drops a lot of snow, we will see. Overall I recommend - definitely much better than Debica Frigo, which I had before - (quieter and better results) Read more Collapse

Tires used two seasons, during which I drove about 5 000 km. The only complaint I have about the volume - on the highway were clearly audible. In addition, for this price unless hard for a better tire. Excellent in dry conditions, but most importantly in the winter season, good job also in the snow. It is true that I drive mostly in the city, but there were trips to the mountains and then also I was not disappointed them. Only once I caught the slip, but it was rather too much wine speed cornering. For a new car (which is on the way) definitely buy again Firestone tires, but this time Winterhawk 3. Read more Collapse

Really very good tires. Finally it snowed, so I can write something. For this money, I find that you can not buy better tires, are well on snow, rain and dry surface. Ice has its own rules, but this tire is also able to cope with. I was afraid that the new EVO version 2 can be a bit worse than the previous version. I drove three seasons with car with rear drive axle and it was really good. I do not know if they are better than the previous one, but I am sure that these are also very good. I recommend.

Tires very well. Ideal behavior on dry and wet roads. Be careful when the temperature rises to more than 7 ° C, because the tire is then very soft and in curves or at intersections behaves as if he had broken down. I test the tires are generally out of the city and on the roads, where often the path is not cleared of snow. But I had no problem with the directions from the snow. Read more Collapse

Tire surprisingly good. Surprisingly because they assumed such good quality at such an affordable price of what I paid. My only criticism is fairly weak performance on wet roads. Moreover, it becomes a non-Zillmerised at high wear. By tread pattern and consume a lot of tire suddenly acceptable to wet the next time the rain started unexpectedly strong slide. Read more Collapse

Tires middle class! They ensure safety in all conditions at a low price. The only reason I can find fault with this abrasiveness: After 25 ffm - 5mm tread ahead at a moderate driving .... a little bit ... ah ... an additional 2 tires are not beating the factory to balance - Firestone did not consider the complaint ... They can go only so ... Read more Collapse

The first kilometers in about tire as quiet on dry and wet asphalt approx. Problems started when I went out of the city, in the snow and ice tragedy. Problems with moving off on slippery, hard ride through the snow. The apogee was a trip to the mountains. I changed to Vredesteiny, from this moment I can ride up the mountain without fear.

Really great donuts (my manufactured in Italy). Even during the terrible road conditions, you can drive safely and without fear. Ba! In the period of greatest rainfall, the average speed of traffic on the roads outside the city was no more than 30km / h I comfortably ahead without fear of losing traction and skid. I highly recommend! Read more Collapse

The tyre fitted in the Corsa C size 175/65 R14 tyres really solid, compared to others I have used the car Continentale are 8 years old and at that age actually tyre loses its properties. Therefore it is better to buy than brand new with good tread and age. Firestone Winterhawk 2 Evo is commendable product. Read more Collapse

There is no point in listing the advantages, they can read each of the manufacturer. Wada as yet one that is revealed when mounting tyres. Are poorly balanced and you need to tap large weights on the rim (about 40 grams per side wheels 14 "). Ones that are purchased this year, made in France. Read more Collapse

I think that the person who buys these tires, is satisfied. The noise level is very low for winter tires, in my case, comparable to summer tires. Very good grip in the wet and the so-called hydroplaning, driving in snow and slush, I rate as a very, very good. greetings Read more Collapse

Pros: cheap tyre very quiet (low rolling resistance), running in dry conditions so far without reservation. Cons: the slightly icy asphalt quickly lose grip when braking, but also when starting all the time so it may be pulling. Overall, I recommend Read more Collapse
