On the tire that has already passed about 5 thousand kilometers and I can confidently say that this is one of the best tires on which I rode. Comfortable, some on snow and wet roads.

Compared with the previous winter tyres seen a significant difference. Auto performed very well, does not accuse the corners. On snow and wet adhesion good.

Very good tire, I bought it at a special price and I am very satisfied. The snow very well behaved, ABS late react which is a big plus !!! On dry tires as very good as the snow. The only small minus the tire is riding on wet little easily lose traction. Noise noticeably lower than that provided by the manufacturer. Recommend

On snow and slush correct and give advice. Very well hold the auto road after entering the pools at higher speeds. The only drawback is the loss of adhesion of the paint, belts, etc.

Hello everybody. I would like to share my opinion about the Yokohama W.drive V905 tyres. They are the best tyres I have ever had mounted on my vehicle. Their grip is simply excellent both in dry and wet weather conditions. Now I like to drive in snow and slush. The braking distance is very short. These tyres provide me with sheer driving sensations. I think that I will purchase these tyres again in the nearest future. I definitely recommend these tyres to all drivers who want to drive safely in winter.

I decided to purchase the Yokohama W.drive V905 and I do not regret my decision. I will write about my first impressions connected with these tyres. The size I bought is 195/65R15. The tyres prevent from aquaplaning phenomenon. Their grip in wet conditions is surprisingly good as for Yokohama tyres. I think they cannot be compared to my summer Pirelli PZero but they are still very good. According to the review by ADAC magazine the Yokohama W.drive V905 is the best winter tyre for wet roads. I do agree with this opinion. Despite the fact that in the most demanding weather conditions like deep snow, slush and ice the ABS and ESP systems of my vehicle had to activate from time to time, the tyres have never contributed to a dangerous situation on the road. I feel safe having them mounted on the wheels. Moving off in snow causes no problems. Braking distance is pretty short even in wet conditions. The weak point is cornering in snow but it may be associated with the fact that my vehicle is FWD, not AWD. The tyres are not too noisy. The rubber compound is rather hard. However, they are still comfortable. I have done approximately 6000 miles on these tyres and I have not noticed any serious signs of wear. Good value for money. I do recommend these tyres to everybody.

Tires used in the city and on the highway, mainly in the rain. They are mercilessly loud howl at low speeds and high loud roar. I was hoping that after a course that persists, but after 2000km nothing has changed. On the plus behavior on the wet, almost perfectly. The snow had not yet had the opportunity to check them out. Halas disqualify for everyday use. I do not recommend.

And I'm disappointed with these tires. I bought a new toy cars and everything was decently outside the large volume and resistance until the first snowfall and here begins the drama. Yokohama I bought because I still remember sensational summer C -drive AC02 at którch I had the impression that I was going by tram rails and not by car along the way. These winter tires is their utter denial, slush on the street - drive into the roundabout and the car majestically glides on the outside, we enter the stretch of rutted and feel like a "rump" I start rolling, we enter the no odśnieżony parking and car dancing like I was lukewarm.
