Specifications
MAXXIS WP-05 ARCTIC TREKKER
MAXXIS WP-05 ARCTIC TREKKER 185/55R16 87H XL — quality All season tyre from MAXXIS. Reliable grip, stability and durability for everyday driving across all conditions.
How fuel-efficient is this tyre?
Below average. The MAXXIS WP-05 ARCTIC TREKKER is rated D, under the middle of the scale. Rolling resistance runs a little higher, so fuel use creeps up slightly. Usually that's the trade-off for stronger grip or longer tread life.
How well does this tyre grip in the wet?
Solid. The MAXXIS WP-05 ARCTIC TREKKER sits at class C, the middle of the wet-grip scale. Braking and grip in the rain are reliable for normal conditions; you give up some braking distance to the top grades, but nothing that stands out day to day.
How much road noise does this tyre make?
Fairly quiet. The MAXXIS WP-05 ARCTIC TREKKER comes in at 69 dB, just under the average for this kind of tyre. Day to day it stays unobtrusive; only rough tarmac brings the noise forward.
Are these tyres reinforced?
Yes. The MAXXIS WP-05 ARCTIC TREKKER carries the XL (Extra Load) marking, which means a stronger casing that takes higher pressures and carries more weight than a standard tyre of the same size. That suits heavier cars, fully loaded driving, vans, and EVs, which run heavier because of their battery packs. To get the full benefit, set the higher pressure the XL rating allows.
Are these tyres certified for snow?
Yes. The MAXXIS WP-05 ARCTIC TREKKER carries the 3PMSF mark — the three-peak mountain snowflake — which a tyre only gets after passing an official snow-braking test. It counts as a proper winter tyre in countries where winter tyres are required by law, and it's a real measure of snow performance, not just the softer M+S label that makes no promise about grip.
MAXXIS is a mid-range class manufacturer offering solid-quality tyres with a good balance of price and durability.
Customer reviews
Good grip on wet surfaces. Some road noise but acceptable for the price.
Bra grepp på vått underlag. Lite vägljud men okej för priset.
