Designed for passenger cars, the Maxxis Premitra Snow WP6 22545R17 94V carries a 225 mm tread width, a 45% sidewall profile, and mounts on 17-inch rims.
Its load index of 94 means it can handle up to 670 kg (1477 lbs) per tire, while the V speed rating allows for speeds up to 240 km/h (149 mph) — specs typical of the C1, entry-level segment.
No rim protection is built in here, meaning the wheel edge isn’t specifically shielded from curb contact. It does not offer run-flat capability, meaning a puncture will require a stop rather than continued driving. It’s built with reinforced construction, which raises its load index above a comparable standard tire — worth checking your registration if load rating matters for your vehicle.
It performs on muddy and snow-covered roads and carries winter-suitability testing.
On the EU tire label, it scores a D in fuel efficiency, B in wet grip, and B in rolling noise, with a measured noise level of 70 dB — neither notably quiet nor loud.
Keep in mind the EU label doesn’t capture everything — dry-road handling, aquaplaning resistance, and wear rate aren’t part of the official rating, so it’s worth weighing alongside fuel efficiency and wet grip.
