Very good tyre with new pattern design. Handles very well on dry and wet asphalt, especially for its price, and has decent handling on snow. I am very satisfied with this buy and this tyre can match power and torque of my highly tuned TDI. This tyre offer very good value for its performance.

Good on snow

Best tyres I used to rebuy them again and again, Im a snowboarder and I can easily say that sava combination with audi quattro are simply unstoppable I have never had any issues with them definitely recommend them buying they are not very expensive and being honest I had much better performance in snow than my friends with premium brands. Very good

Very good experience with them, 5th winter now using the Eskimo HP2 (probably the last one, as I tend to believe the time itself takes a toll on the tire, even if the treads still look fine). Never had any problems with them (in terms of reduced safety while driving), except from once on a snowy, unplowed road, where we didn't comfortably come to a halt while braking - at least not where I anticipated it (maybe an additional meter, from a very low speed, maybe 25 km/h). However, there was no damage to anybody/anything, and the conditions were really nasty. Aside from that, I feel the difference on wet (compared to my Pilot Sport 4, in mild temperatures, say 5-10 dg Celsius) and on dry roads, but still the experience is more that satisfactory. Factoring in the quiet ride and the slow wear - a recommendation from me, I consider the Eskimo HP2 to be safe and reliable, especially for the price.

3 winters and 8000+ km they look and feel like they were on the first day, I always switch them off in June - no loos in feel or performance in the warmer days, the feedback is great.

Excellent tires for snow. Performed me really well in winter conditions. I seen them in really dangerous situation how they outperformed 2 other winter tiers. One of them was even premium brand. Situation Night, -2 Celsius, City, dark road, 2 lane road. Driving on the right lane with speed 50 kph, 3-5 cm of Snow on the road. Pedestrian jumps out from nowhere on pedestrian crossing, I was 10 m from crossing I've managed to stop 1 meter in front of him. The 2 cars which were roughly 10-15 meters behind me, one ended up 5 meters IN front of me on the side walk on the right side almost hitting the tree, he was braking and using low budged winter tiers. His tiers were just sliding like skies. The second guy used premium tiers he managed to stopped on the road left lane 3-4 meters IN front of me, on pedestrian crossing, breezing the pedestrian. We were all driving similar speed. Everyone almost had a hart attack. But SAVA ESKIMO HP 2 did its job and prevented injury of pedestrian an me in jail. My tiers were at that time 3 year old and had some miles on them. On highways they are stable and they keep the grip even with gentle snow on the road. Have been using them for 6 years and need to replace them due to their old age, as they still didn't worn out. Good job SAVA and Goodyear will buy again!

This is my first time using these tires, I used Goodyear UG9 and Bridgestone Blizzak before. What I can say is that I am satisfied and would give a rating of 8.5/10. The tires hold very well in the dry and there are no difficulties in cornering or braking. When it comes to wet roads, they hold the road very well and I have no complaints except for aquaplaning. Worse aquaplaning (over 90 km/h, over deeper deposits of water on the road) is felt when you go straight, but in curves the aquaplaning is excellent. Not once did they slip or turn on ABS or ESP.

It's the tire I've been using for years. Despite being a winter tire, it had good handling in hot weather. Braking distance was also good. After 4 years, it started to harden and its performance decreased in snowy driving.

Probably best value tyres i have ever had. They are not the most sporty or responsive tyre, you definitely feel "lack of road feel" and lightness through the rim but since it is a winter tyre and i drive mostly in town with moderate speeds in winter months, i couldn't care less. Amazing grip and traction on snow, very good and in the dry and wet, it doesn't fall apart in the wet like some other budget winter tyres. I had nearly done 15000km's with these and wear is pretty decent as well. They don't so far off from a premium winter tyre for half the price. Definitely buy again.

Awesome tyres, perform really well in snowy conditions - you can definitely feel the grip. Good value for money

Tyres performed excelent on all types of roads. The dry grip is superior and on wet,snow and ice also superior. Comfort is also really good, they are not too noisy. Overall the best tyre for the that amount of money and can definetly compete with other premium tyres like Mich Conty ext.

Awesome handling in snow. For the price best tire you can buy. Its not best on dry and high speed, but on snow great!

Second winter on these tyres. Very good for the price, solid when dry, better than most competitors when wet, haven't really had a chance to test it in real snow, but at what little there was they were good. Feedback is good, better than expected for a winter tyre. It's comfortable, a bit noisy but the frequency of the noise is not anoying for me, it relatively high piched hum. I recommend this tyre and I will buy it again.

Excellent Value. is the easiest way I can describe these tyres. They do perform above their price class, quite a bit. There are really not many complaints I can make, maybe they are not the sportiest tyre in the cold dry but they are not meant to be that kind of tyre anyway. When I switched to these tyres my car had older set of kelbers (if I remember correctly) from the previous owner, but I had 2 close calls on snowy roads so I swapped to SAVA mid winter, and the difference was night and day. They even grip better in wet then my summer set of Matador Hectorra 3s. I highly recommend these tyres as viable and safe budget winter tyre.

very nice tyre according to the price.
Positive: Low fuel consumption, dry and snow grip, price.
Negative: Bad comfort. (maybe caused xl version)
