Product description & features

  • Excellent grip qualities on snow and ice
  • Reliable performance in freezing conditions
  • Reduced risk of aquaplaning

Built to tackle the unique challenges of European winters, the Winter Sport 5 provides motorists with dependable performance even in freezing conditions.
Its intelligent tread pattern delivers traction and stability when driving on snow or ice, while maintaining safety and control during rapid temperature changes and wet conditions.
The Winter Sport 5 is available in 15-inch to 21-inch rim sized tyres.
 

Improved Performance on Snow-Covered Roads

With an increased number of tread blocks, the Winter Sport 5 creates more biting edges that grip into snow.
This results in greater traction, responsive handling, and improved braking performance during wintry driving.
 

Fuel Efficiency

The tyre’s optimised weight distribution lowers rolling resistance, helping reduce energy loss.
This not only improves fuel economy but also ensures more efficient and consistent wear over the tyre’s lifespan.

Very good grip in heavy snow and car didn't even slip or spin driving from bridgend to Switzerland and back and not a bad thing I can say about them.

They’re good in icy, snowy and wet conditions. Particularly in snow. Fine on the dry also. When the weather gets much over 7 degrees Celsius they have much less grip. We’ve had a very mild winter so I haven’t had the chance to get too much snow use out of them. But they’ve performed admirably on the occasions that I have been.

I only use these tyres across winter, being based in Northern Scotland we have longer cooler winters than further South, conditions which suit them better. Not really suitable all year round, hence low mileage. Very happy with them in rain and snow - first class. - These are winter tyres - bought for use in snow/ice/cold. In these conditions they work really well, very impressive, give loads of confidence. Don't use them in hot weather though - performance is not good, wear is really poor, but they aren't designed for hot weather use, so not unexpected!

Had them on T6 since November and so far so good. Grippy in the wet. Good in the snow ( only for the one day so far this season). A bit noisy in the dry but that's to be expected given they are winter tyres. Not showing any signs of wear yet. Good value for money.

Really impressed - great winter tyres. We live at the top of a Welsh mountain and the road gets regularly iced over winter - these tyres made the vehicle incredibly sure-footed and made sure I could get to work (and back up the mountain again at the end of the day) - would very happily recommend them.

These seem to be great in the snow. My 1 series hasn't swapped ends on me yet. Not very fuel efficient though but that has to be expected with winter tyres.

Super grip in the cold weather, including the snow. However, on longer motorway runs, they are not as economical as summer tyres ... 10 mpg less or worse. Compared to summer tyres, they also feel odd ... nothing terrible, just odd

Very well, especially since they have been on the car all year, because of Covid-19 I wasn’t able to have them changed and anticipate keeping them on until April 2021

Although the tyres give a slight 'floating' feeling the tyres worked extremely well in the recent snow sailing past other cars safely. More generally in normal weather I didn't notice any reduction in handling braking performance or economy ... they might have been better when very cold. The only real issue is *not* connected with the tyres ... putting the old summer tyres on new [non-standard] rims has been stressful and time-consuming. It's not as straight forward as the advertisements imply. Had I known this I wouldn't have bought winter tyres.
