Linglong Green Max Winter Grip 2
The Linglong Green Max Winter Grip 2 is an economy Central European winter tyre with good braking and balanced snow behaviour in one small class comparison. Slow dry steering, uneven ride quality and high rolling resistance were its main drawbacks.
The Linglong Green Max Winter Grip 2 finished first of three Central European winter tyres in the 2020 Test World comparison. Within that small class it recorded the shortest dry, snow and ice braking distances, and testers praised its snow balance. Its snow-handling lap was close to the class best and its subjective snow rating led the group. These results support useful braking and snow ability against those particular alternatives, rather than a broad conclusion across winter-tyre types.
Road manners were less convincing. The testers criticised slow steering response on dry roads, uneven ride quality and high rolling resistance. Wet braking took 14.8% longer than the class best. Wet handling was fastest on time within the class but lowest in subjective assessment, showing that pace and confidence did not fully agree. Ice handling was also described as average despite its class-leading placing. This test-only record is too narrow to establish wear or everyday ownership costs, and the steering and comfort compromises remain relevant alongside the favourable braking results.
