2025 Friction Winter Tyre Test P8 of 8

The Maxtrek Trek M7 Plus represents the budget segment in this test, and against the well-known competitors, the tyre consistently shows poor results. In ten of 13 categories, it places last or next to last, often with a significant margin up to the best tyres. The only bright spot is starting and braking grip on snow, where the coarse tread pattern helps to grab hold of the snow. However, the grip level fails when the road curves - on both snow and ice, it struggles to do two things simultaneously, like accelerating or braking in a curve. It's also difficult to regain control, though the tyre is never prone to sliding but always releases at the front wheels first. On dry pavement, it's unwilling to take steering input and prefers to roll straight ahead. Last place is a given. The only positive is starting and braking on snow, while it suffers from generally weak cornering grip and poor braking on ice and asphalt.
