There aren’t many things to dislike about the Winter i*cept RS3, except perhaps for slightly lower mileage and higher rolling resistance. For its price, it performs well in all weather conditions.

Very good traction on snow for a nice price in a wide range of dimensions. Could use shorter braking distance on dry and better traction on the wet.

Did you know ...?

185/60 R16 doesn't belong to the most popular dimensions for winter tyres - there are 10 tyre models available, which can be compared to 165/60 R15, 165/60 R14, 165/65 R15. Let's break down the sizing - 60 is height of the tyre, which is calculated as 60% of the tyre width (185mm), which means the sidewall height has 111 mm. The wheel diameter is R16, which means it fits to a 16 inch/406.4mm diameter wheel. The total circumference of the tyre is 1974.18 mm, which is very similar to 195/70 R14(1974.81 mm), 245/35 R18(1975.12 mm), 245/40 R17(1972.29 mm), 215/40 R18(1976.69 mm), 180/55 R17(1978.58 mm), 205/60 R15(1969.78 mm), 225/50 R16(1983.6 mm).
