Translation

On impeccable dry even on wet asphalt. Compared with Pirelli Sotto Zero, under these conditions there was not anything wrong. Sudden braking or rapid bypass obstacles, always without problems. Snow and slush, unfortunately, much worse. Fresh snow in the wet I happened to have a problem with you leaving a small hollow and almost ended up sliding into a ditch. Snow level road given face, but they put the 180 horses a little too high expectations - TCS solve this problem easily. Durable tires for two seasons (about 20 tkm) and probably withstand two more if they were not stolen.

I was very happy with the first winter. The second winter fared a little worse due to rapid tire wear.

I drive a Skoda Octavia 1.9 and the longest time I could not decide which tires I buy. The customer service person told me these Falken HS 439 and I was not at all convinced to buy this particular brand :) However, one thing has encouraged me to take this decision - a one-year warranty which cover all mechanical damage. This tire is manufactured in Japan :) only in Japan! What matters a lot to me. As for driving, I am very pleasantly surprised. The car holds the road very well in turns, it is silentieux, guarantees comfort. I would give 5 + rating

Generally ok, the start of the hill in the snow kopnym great, but braking on slippery surfaces, snow packed - a bit long

I have this tire since 2008. Today is the season 4 - about 50,000 km traveled, this is his last season because the tires have more than 5mm and the winter is over. the tire is great as a summer rain, snow and ice below expectations as the Japanese.

I bought the Falken HS 439 tires because they are asymmetric tread. I read enough opinions on effective drainage. Sometimes, it is in very large quantities. In addition, the price of the tire was very attractive. Drivers express themselves quite well on their farm :) On wet it behaves correctly, but when accelerating sometimes the car slides .... Unfortunately, snow traction is fatal - problems arise Lord startup and acceleration of slush. When the snow is about 10 cm you have problems out of the park. Cornering and braking is correct. On the highway driving is comfortable. Tires Falken HS 439 should be quieter - but it is a feature of winter tires. So I do not judge it.

Ice snow and light, with a quiet ride, the tire behaves quite average. Ok water and mud, but it's hard to 4x4 horse that was the problem. In summary, we rate + 3, depending on the scale of ancient notation.

tires work well on dry and wet go directly back on track and keep great sense, no noise, many in the inhibition of (dry and wet), an average of tight turns, I think compared to the previous long life - almost no conflict (so I think), I suggest you buy early!

Welcome. On these two winter tires as I drove, I live in London, so that was driven route to polish and return trip to the Polish alps mountains in winter and skiing in Livigno. After land Mazury 1000 km per year on average. So far, I drove about 17000 km. I will say right tire, decent to very decent road slush stick satisfactory kopny snow time I had to wear chains in the Alps, but this is normal. my driving style on the average estimate pollination is not as stupid on the road in winter, but the 130-140 can run on them as compacted snow is pulled up to 100 km. Check with Parking in trouble. Personally, I can not recommend the anvil. Earlier black mialme Fulda and was also ok, but what surprised me was a small fuel tank! I think the same two winters on posmigam quietly.
