ADAC: Winter Tire Test R17
Ranked #13th of 16. Maxxis Premitra Snow WP6Verdict:The Maxxis Premitra Snow WP6 struggled to perform on dry roads, showing limited precision and requiring frequent steering corrections during cornering. This resulted in a lower overall safety rating. Its wet performance was similarly average, with extended braking distances and subpar handling. The tire’s response during sudden maneuvers was unsteady, leading to a lack of confidence at the limits. On snow and ice, the Premitra Snow WP6 offered adequate braking but lacked strong traction and precise handling, resulting in only satisfactory ratings. The environmental assessment was better, thanks to its low fuel consumption and minimal tread wear, but its heavier weight and manufacturing residues detracted from its sustainability profile.

My previous winter tires were 10 years old, so I had to replace them with these ones. This winter we had a lot of snow in our place and the tires performed excellent. But I didn't expect that after one winter season they would be worn out! I've driven only 10,000 km. Also I could say my previous tires were more comfortable, they weren't noisy at all. All in all these tires are not bad but next time I will choose another tires.
