The Maxxis Premitra Ice Nord NS5 is a studded winter tyre designed for SUVs and crossover vehicles for driving in tough winter road conditions. This tyre features a directional tread pattern with studs that increase traction on icy and snowy surfaces, offering effective braking and good resistance to aquaplaning and slush. The tyre demonstrates short braking distances on dry tarmac and very good results on wet pavement. However, it exhibits weak grip on ice and snow and has been noted for producing very noisy operation. The tread pattern is specifically engineered to improve grip in wet and snowy road conditions while maintaining a durable construction suitable for Nordic regions.
