Owner feedback
The comments left by customers help to make sure that the tires are reliable. The low noise level makes driving more comfortable, but when driving outside the city limits, you should be more careful on poorly cleared roads where there is a risk of rutting. Many users in the reviews of Laufen Fit Ice winter tires note this drawback.
The tires cope well with snowy roads, are not inferior to other tires when driving on ice, and are not afraid of lower temperatures. In terms of price and quality ratio, they are more profitable than eminent competitors.
Even in adverse climatic conditions typical for the Urals, where winter weather brings surprises, the model demonstrates high wear resistance.
Drivers in reviews of the LW71 I Fit tire model with the Ice marking from the manufacturer Laufenn note that slippage is possible in some situations - on smooth and rolled ice. In other cases, rubber provides a minimum braking distance and excellent flotation.
Good results on different coating options are a great argument for doubting buyers. However, tires are optimal only for cleared streets, and not off-road, which characterizes our country.
The model shows decent results and is liked by many buyers. It has many advantages - efficiency, low noise, directional stability and cross-country ability, but there are also disadvantages. Heavy snowfall or heavy ice on a difficult track can be a serious obstacle to unleashing the full potential of this winter tire.
