All-weather tyres with Mountain/Snowflake symbols

[nicholsong]

I know that not all-weather tyres are marked with the 'Mountain' and 'Snowflake' symbols.

Can members please help from their own experience which companies' all-weather tyres are marked thus.

 

[Flairy]

Mitchelin & Continental that I know of

Michelin Cross Climates

Michelin cross climate campers. Put them on mine and very happy with them.

Some don’t like them but work for me.

Each to their own. Bit like motorbike tyres, we all have our favourite. I will only have Bridgestone, some of my mates only have Pirelli.

[Roby2008]

I have Dunlop winters for her Alhambra, the MH and my cabrio stay covered up/garaged from Nov to April.....

Conti do a full winter 15" tyre for Ducato, that I do know.

 

[Sasbo]

Davanti Terratourer, a few of us funsters have these fitted. I've used them in the Alps last winter and on muddy fields and all types of roads this year and am extremely happy with the grip and noise levels.

 

[EuroTrotters]

Don’t like Michelin x climates.

Ours lasted 12 months before cracking.

I use Michelin Alpin winter.

If you look on most sites these days, it notes if the tyres are 3-peak marked

We've got ( well had until front ones needed replacing in Morocco)

Vredestein Comtrac 2 with mountain snowflake symbols.

They've never seen snow so have no idea if they are any good for it but FWD probably not.

I do not necessarily need them for mountain use, but just to cross places like Germany when there is snow/ice around and they are mandatory.

Last time I bought winter tyres to run all year, but it is often difficult to get a choice of those at this time of year, so I thought all-weather might be more available, because I want to change them before departure to Greece in 3-4 week August.

Toyo Observe are marked and are multi dimensional so can go on any side.

 

[Lenny HB]

I have Toyo Observe Van on my wagon.

Here's something that might be of interest. A German mag's review of winter tyres. If you can't read German, just install Google translate on your phone or tablet and use the camera mode to translate.

[EuroTrotters]

Likewise

Switched from Michelin Alpin winters on my Van (not motorhome) to Toyo Observe

 

[EuroTrotters]

Look for 3PMSF (3 Peaks Mountain Snowflake)

But always check first that the actual tyres do have the marking. Some state they do when they don't and some like Rotala its gets missed

 

[EuroTrotters]

Certainly Forget these. You would be better off with a 10 Ply commercial tyre.

 

[EuroTrotters]

I buy a lot of tyres from the company

We have the now discontinued Toyo H09, now called Observe, 2018 fitted so 5 years ago, the tread pattern on the Observe are not as chunky as the HO9. Still have a couple of years left on these though.

Dose that mean we can run snowflakes over with them. Just asking for a friend.

I have just ordered 5x Toyo Observe 175/75 R 16 in Poland.

£105 plus £6 fitting.

How does that compare with UK?

Difficult to that is not a size normally seen on Motorhomes.

Toyo's seem to go up and down in price depending on avaliblity.
Mine are 225/75/16 paid £105 3 years ago fitting was £15.
Since then I've seen them as high as £140 but now back down to under £110.
I bought from Tyre leader, an Andorian company and the tyres were delivered from Germany.

[Outdoors Dad]

I've just come back from the garage after having 4 Davanti wintouer tyres fitted...£400 the garage owner is a fellow motorhomer and on the same order he got himself 4 Davanti terratour A/T tyres for his motorhome, I must admit his tyres look good. He said he got them because he normally just uses a grass pitch and that they have the correct certification for parts of Europe??? Snow flake symbol I think he meant.
wintourer version.
