I bought my car, a 2016 Passat, fitted with a new set of these tyres. My first reaction was to change them as soon as I can because I never heard of this brand and didn't have much confidence in them but the guy at the tyre shop convinced me to keep them for the first winter and try out how they perform. He said he has the same tyres on his Nissan and for the price these are really good. And he was right. Before, on the cars I had, were fitted for winter Michelins or sub-brands as Kleber or BF Goodrich which are great tyres, but these Fortune tyres, which I never heard about before, are in some aspects even better, and this puzzles me. They offer comfort, quietness, good grip on both wet and dry and surprisingly never slipped on snowy or icy roads. I have to mention that my driving style is more comfort oriented, never push the car to the limit, so in these conditions the tyres perform well.
