I've driven around 3000km since i had them fitted and i'm very pleased by their performance. Tires perform very good in all conditions. From my experience the only drawbacks are that they are somewhat noisy and have high rolling resistance so my fuel consumption increased by approx. 0.3-0.5L/100km. Still, i would highly recommend if you need good budget oriented winter tires

Torque EU label data
9 of the 10 tyres on record carry EU label data. These are the range's label headliners, using each tyre's best available size figures.
B Best wet grip
2 tyres reach EU wet grip class B. The highest scoring:
C Lowest rolling resistance
The most fuel efficient choice: 9 tyres reach rolling resistance class C. The highest scoring:
- Torque TQ023 7.4
- Torque TQ901 7.1

70dB Quietest tyres
The quietest tyres in the range are labelled from 70 dB external noise:
- Torque TQ023 7.4

- Torque TQ025 All Season 5.2
Label values come from the EU EPREL database and vary by size - the figures here are each tyre's best declared size. Wet grip and rolling resistance run from class A (best) to E; noise is the measured drive-by figure. A good label is a floor, not a verdict: the tests and rankings above tell you far more.

The most recent reviews, in their own words
I bought 4 tires in 2022 they were great when first installed, after 4 months the road noise started to get louder. June 05th 2023 the entire cap came off my right tire, thank God I was not travelling fast. The dealer here in the Cayman Islands do not offer warranties or guarantee's, so I had no choice but to purchase another tire. Let's hope this one does not fail.
In the begining, whille they were brand new, they seemed nice, comfy and durable. After 4 years and 55000km, all of a sudden, they started to sound just like i was in an aircraft. I had a better look, and although they don't look bad, they are old between the canals
I have these tyres about 2 years ago . I drive the car in every condition even offroad in mud , no problems till now . Good tyres quality / price .
Leave well alone!
I had no problems with the usage of these tyres but after a year and just 7,000 both had side wall bulges and were dangerous. Had it not been for an annual vehicle checker spotting this I would have never have known as the bulges were on the inside rear! The first I would have known about it is when one of them failed and I dread to think of the consequences!
Life is worth more than saving a few pennies!!
This is the 3rd winter i am using this tyres, they are very good on dry, wet or snow. I can say they are as good as premium tyres. The only problem i had was on the highway at over 140kmh, at this high speed you can feel they are not premium tyres. Still, i would buy again.
