  • The Maxxis Premitra Snow WP6 receives a satisfactory rating for driving safety, with weaknesses on dry roads limiting its overall performance. It lacks precision and feedback on dry surfaces, requiring frequent steering corrections and exhibiting a tendency to oversteer. While it offers satisfactory performance on wet and snowy roads, with good longitudinal aquaplaning resistance, its handling is less precise, and it has a lower threshold for understeer and oversteer. Its environmental performance is mixed, with a long lifespan and good fuel efficiency, but a higher weight and concerns about sustainability due to its production in China and manufacturing residues on new tyres.
  • Maxxis Premitra Snow WP6, kuru yollardaki zayıflıkların genel performansını sınırlamasıyla sürüş güvenliği için tatmin edici bir puan alıyor. Kuru yüzeylerde hassasiyet ve geri bildirim eksikliği, sık direksiyon düzeltmeleri gerektiriyor ve aşırı dönüş eğilimi gösteriyor. Islak ve karlı yollarda iyi uzunlamasına suda kızaklama direnciyle tatmin edici bir performans sunarken, kullanımı daha az hassas ve önden ve aşırı dönüş için daha düşük bir eşik değerine sahip. Çevresel performansı karışık, uzun bir kullanım ömrü ve iyi yakıt verimliliği, ancak Çin'de üretilmesi ve yeni lastiklerdeki üretim artıkları nedeniyle daha yüksek bir ağırlık ve sürdürülebilirlik endişeleri var.
  • Der Maxxis Premitra Snow WP6 erhält eine zufriedenstellende Bewertung für die Fahrsicherheit, wobei Schwächen auf trockenen Straßen seine Gesamtleistung einschränken. Auf trockenen Oberflächen mangelt es ihm an Präzision und Rückmeldung, sodass er häufige Lenkkorrekturen erfordert und zum Übersteuern neigt. Während er auf nassen und verschneiten Straßen eine zufriedenstellende Leistung mit gutem Längsaquaplaning-Schutz bietet, ist sein Handling weniger präzise und er hat eine niedrigere Schwelle für Unter- und Übersteuern. Seine Umweltleistung ist gemischt, mit einer langen Lebensdauer und guter Kraftstoffeffizienz, aber einem höheren Gewicht und Bedenken hinsichtlich der Nachhaltigkeit aufgrund seiner Produktion in China und Produktionsrückständen auf neuen Reifen.
  • Le Maxxis Premitra Snow WP6 obtient une note satisfaisante en matière de sécurité de conduite, avec des faiblesses sur routes sèches limitant ses performances globales. Il manque de précision et de retour d'information sur surfaces sèches, nécessitant des corrections de direction fréquentes et présentant une tendance au survirage. S'il offre des performances satisfaisantes sur routes mouillées et enneigées, avec une bonne résistance à l'aquaplaning longitudinal, sa maniabilité est moins précise et il a un seuil de sous-virage et de survirage plus bas. Ses performances environnementales sont mitigées, avec une longue durée de vie et une bonne efficacité énergétique, mais un poids plus élevé et des préoccupations en matière de durabilité en raison de sa production en Chine et des résidus de fabrication sur les pneus neufs.

I am not driving that spirited, especially on winter tyres - thus take my grip specifics with a grain of salt. In the grip category i don't see reason to complain. Sometimes i am in the mood to take an on-ramp near the limit of grip - behaviour here seems normal to me, the car tends to understeer. The previous winter tyres i bought the car with were 8 year old Marangoni Meteo HP and those sometimes tended to oversteer and had quite bad wet grip, so i replaced them with these. After one winter season the front tyres are severely more worn than the rears, i dont expect more than two seasons, so ca. 20000km out of these. On the inside of the car the tyre sounds fairly loud with a repeating growling which feels a bit like a outgoing wheelbearing is described. My eagle f1 asymmetric 5 summer tyres are far better in noise and comfort, which is important to me. The tyres performed very well in the heavy snow we had this year. My car is lowered a bit and even with loose snow around the 10 cm mark i didn't get stuck while having a short donut session in a parking lot. I suspect with the immense wear now on the rear tyres i would have more trouble in a similar situation. All in all i do not like these tyres a lot but they are not horrible - for my next set of tyres i will try another model in hopes of improving wear and noise.
