volodyalysak Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Just got some Hankook Ipike W409 205 50 17 i did not stud it, because don't want any noise. Test it yesterday on 10 inches of fresh snow. All i can say is wow ) It grips like you on pavement, and i was able to do 90 degrees turn going 40 on snow. Price paid 620 $ including balancing and mounting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drogos Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Can you repeat the same trick in the wet? Krzys was it 2 weeks ago. Chicago, 65F (WTF?), my 7 year old Nokians (3rd owner/ 50% thread left, WTF#2 and wet road = some interesting, almost no traction behavior. Quite similar to crappy all seasons on snow actually but much less predictable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
