I put these in service on a taxi and we had first major snowfall last night. I was quite impressed by the feeling of sure footedness. With traction control it's next to impossible to spin, turning it off and I found they grip in fresh snow 3 inches deep very well. To feel them out I went and played in a giant snow covered empty parking lot. The tires hung in and gripped very well on sharp corners and stopping from city speeds rapidly was very impressive. (new premium brake components didn't hurt either) Road bumps felt very close to the summer tires that came off and road noise seemed minimal, mind you the hiway had a skif of snow covering it. They do throw a lot of snow, slush, water but I suppose that's far better than not and having them fill in with packed snow. No they are not the high end tire on the shelf but they have performed very well for me so far and will definately get my nod of approval.

At 95% would buy tyres again that judge. What's more, I asked a few friends and they are happy, so my opinion is positive. GREETS.
