only just bought them this weekend and been out in the rain and cold 4 deg C, but they feel better than the previous Conti All Season 17" which came with the car (Ford Kuga 2.0 tdi 140cp). They run very quietly and smoothly. also there's a 2012 youtube review in German where they came first which I found after buying them.
