These tires have been a mixed bag. On the plus side theyve got excellent traction in snow and decent grip in wet conditions. But, theye quite noisy especially on dry pavement. And the handling? Not the best. They struggle a bit with hard cornering which is disappointing. I had them studded and they perform well in the snow and ice but for dry roads they leave something to be desired.

The ride is smooth and they much quieter than my old Continentals. They handle well in wet conditionshavent had any issues with hydroplaning, which is a relief. The steering feels a tad vague compared to what Im used to, but nothing major. They soak up bumps nicely making the ride more comfortable. If they made these for our CR-V, Id throw them on there too. So far, so good!
