Cordiant Polar 2
My Honest Review of the Cordiant Polar 2 Tires - A Mixed Bag
summarizeEditor's Summary
I recently got my hands on a set of Cordiant Polar 2 tires that came with my car, but after driving on them for three seasons, I've got to say, I was pretty disappointed. The tires are pretty bulky, with a width of 185mm and a height of 65mm, and they've got a directional tread pattern that looks pretty aggressive. While they handled snow and ice decently, the ride was uncomfortable and the handling was subpar. With a price tag like this, I expected a lot more.
