I live in northern NJ travel to upstate NY daily 43 mile up in Catskill mountains. It is about 7 miles from my door to High Point Mountain 1250 feet on a one lane each way winding state park road up down then travel on another one lane road 209 through mostly woods to reach route 17 travel 8 miles on a three lane highway up Wurtsboro Mountain where most are driving to fast in bad winter conditions and arrive at my parking space 1650 feet above sea level. These tires have served me very well snow, icy slushy roads, high winds , we get it all and often. I drive a 2023 Mazda CX5 AWD and leave these on all year round do just fine in the dry long trips loaded to the beach although a little more gas, ride is OK I came from a very comfy 2016 Accord so if the Mazda was riding poorly with these I would share it. At this price point I will run two winters ( I drive 20 K miles a year) and get another set as it's 100 $ to put my other tires back on in spring repeat in fall. Paid $528.00 for four. Oh had them rotated (directional tire) after a year very little wear defiantly getting two years, I buy new tires before I should like to have good rubber on my car always.

While the dry grip left a little bit to desire, it is a wonderful and well-rounded tire in snow and icey conditions. The feeling you get in slippy conditions was a very linear feeling that give you the confidence that you know exactly when you will step over the line. When you finally step over the line, you hav a very easy time regaining grip again due to the linear grip.
