These are such an improvement in winter use to keep that edge they provide, you can finish these off as an all season in the summer and buy a fresh set for bad weather, or swap them out for a summer only depending on your mileage.

These tires performed as good or better than advertised. Thanks to my local Discount Tire for getting these at my request! Great value for the price, and much less than other premium brands

My mechanic suggested these for my BMW 5-series. The OEM all season Goodyear run flats were horrible on ice (slowly slid sideways while at a dead stop). These are very competent and predictable in winter driving conditions and tread held up very well over the season. They're quiet and I didn't notice any reduction in fuel mileage.

I’m honestly not very impressed with these snow tires. Living in MN, I have had a few brands of snow tires on this Kia Soul and these are the first ones that I don’t have confidence in. I have been stuck, slipped, more with these tires than any I have had in the past. I was recommended these tires due to the quiet ride. I’m wishing I had gone for something more noisy and more traction.

It got me through the snow days pretty safe, and freeways up here are cleared really good. I just couldn't make it up my stupid steep driveway if it was covered in snow. Steering felt kinda floaty due to sticky tires. I drove through a small unplowed street one night and it was nothing but bare ice, but luckily I had these on and I didn't slide more than a foot behind the stop sign. After 5500 miles and running them pretty hard they wore great.
