Imperial Snowdragon 3 205/40 R17 84 V XL

I am very satisfied with my Imperial Snowdragon 3 winter tyres. My ride is now much more precise and careful: these tyres have even reduced my level of fatigue too. They are very stable when cornering. At fast speeds, think more than 100mph, they are safe and extremely quiet, which I did not expect, to be honest. I would definitely buy some more of these tyres when I need to. I have travelled more than 1000miles on them in 5 days, and they have performed brilliantly on wet and dry roads alike. I am just waiting to test them thoroughly on snow. Finally, I am sincerely delighted with the shipping (within 24 hours, they were delivered) and the Oponeo call centre operatives were great. Overall, a great tyre, from a great company. Read more Collapse

Tire in dry conditions behaves correctly, it is not great, but somehow it is not very bad. button to start wet disc without wheel spin. the snow must be very careful. after a light rain on the S8 to 215 km / h with the liquid turns all 4 tires started uslizgiwac. I do not recommend buying these tires, quality is in place for the price. We pay very little and very little certainty and security get. Bury! Read more Collapse

There are many positive opinions about this tire in the internet. I suspect that the authors may be people who did not use much more expensive, top models (the top model is not necessarily the top brand, though usually). Well, after converting summer tires (Dunlop Sport Maxx RT 245/40/18 - supposedly one of the quietest) for winter one, you could notice two meaningful changes: very quiet performance and quite dangerous behavior of the car in the usual, but dynamic driving. The sport suspension does not hide tire defects so the differences were immediately noticeable for me without any extreme testing. Immediately after shifting the wheels, so in identical conditions (dry surface, about 10 degrees) the braking distance increased by 50%. With decisive, but not cracking cornering, the car buckled like damaged sleeves and was carried outside. On a wet surface, the braking distance is also longer than on summer tires, although not so drastically. However, there is a low aquaplaning tendency. I have no experience with snow - this year it will not be much better. The tire could not be perfectly balanced even after 3 drafts. At frequent speed of 50-60 mph, rumbling is heard.

A year ago, I was using the Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D (tread wear rate approximately 40%, but these were 4 years old so I had to replace them.. This year I bought the Imperial Snowdragon 3, and my first impressions are they are very similar to the Dunlop tyres I was using previously. They are a quiet-to-drive tyre and they handle brilliantly in deep snow. I felt my Dunlop’ tyres were better in the wet, but these still perform adequately for my needs. The braking is superb in most conditions and they provide great value for money. I believe 100%, that you are getting a tyre spec of a Dunlop/Michelin at a quarter of the price. It is quite a durable tyre, but I recommend changing tyres every 4 years, no matter what the brand is, as the rubber hardens. In summary, a much better winter tyre than premium brand Read more Collapse
