Go35 is a big **** :grin: very bad choose from Mitsu for this car.

Hey guys, last year I opened this topic and I got many replies, however, I never changed my tires and I used the ones from factory in the last winter, the experience was not to bad but this year I want to buy the proper winter tires. So, can anybody recommend a good winter tires for the Outlander in size and model. Thanks!

I swear by my second set of winter tires they are better by far than my michelin X-Ice ever were. They are 225/65R16 Toyo Observe G-02 plus WINTER tires

One question first of all:
What must happen to consider the tyre as no good?
I think, that you must get into problems with climbing a road-slope. A slope which you made at same conditions, same car but other tyres. Or when you crash with your car due to lack of grip, but with other tyres it wouldnt happen.

Simply, the moment and situation which can not be handled by tyres determines their quality. How far is the break point. But how many of us can say?: I made that snow-covered curve just 5 minutes ago, but with other tyres. And damned, now my car is out of road and crashed.

I got Pirelli Sotozero W210, 215/55 R17. These are made of relative hard rubber, one garage mechanic said. He said, that Pirelli has hardest winter tyres, means lower grip at lower temperatures. But OTOH, winters in Slovakia are not so cruel, most of the winter time I drive on dry roads. And driving in time of autumn changing to winter and winter changing to spring, when you have +15°C and week after back -1°C does not harm my tyres. Casue they are hard and can resist to wearing-off by high temp better than softer rubbers. But in Canada its another story.

Brother, just pick some well known brand. Any. You can't miss and you will not be able to feel the difference either. Premium brands score in tests and it does not matter, if this season is Bridgestone the No1 and Michelin No3, cause next season it will be upside-down. Variances are very very small.
