What owners say

No road-test results yet, so every score here comes from owner reviews found online.

How scores work
Relative score
0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
Road tests
0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
Owner reviews
0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.

What owners like and dislike

Themes extracted from 6 owner reviews found online.

The Maxtrek TREK M900 is a budget-oriented winter tire that presents a polarizing experience for drivers, often compared favorably to other entry-level brands but falling short of premium market standards. While users appreciate its affordability and acceptable snow traction, the tire is frequently criticized for significant road noise and inconsistent handling characteristics.

Pros

  • High value-for-money proposition compared to premium brands
  • Effective traction on snow-covered surfaces
  • Rugged aesthetic appeal
  • Comparable performance to mid-tier competitors in specific winter conditions

Cons

  • Excessive road noise and humming at various speeds
  • Poor handling and stability on dry pavement
  • Inconsistent grip on ice
  • Vague road feel and steering wander

Worth knowing

  • Luxury vehicle owners, such as those with Mercedes-Benz GL models, report that the tire's high noise levels significantly degrade cabin comfort despite air suspension.
  • Heavy-duty truck owners (e.g., F350) find the tire to be a functional upgrade over summer tires for winter use, despite limitations on ice.
