Ranked #10 of 10
10 out of 10 competitors — final rating: -. The Maxxis Premitra Snow WP6 offered decent snow grip and even produced the best snow results among the budget group, but suffered from nervous load-change reactions and performed poorly on wet and dry surfaces: it had the longest wet braking distance, the second-longest dry braking distance, traction problems and limited durability, making it hard to recommend for mixed winter conditions. There were no disciplines where it was recorded as absolutely best, and no specific properties listed as last overall.

Finishing 11th out of 12 competitors, the Maxxis Premitra Snow WP6 received a final rating of 'Satisfactory.' The tire excelled in aquaplaning resistance, both crosswise and longitudinal, showing impressive safety reserves. Testers noted its good traction and short braking distances on snowy surfaces, along with low driving noise. However, the tire showed significantly delayed steering response, limited lateral guidance, and extended braking distances in wet conditions.
