I bought these tires based on a test by Consumer Reports and it performs as CR says they do. I find they are quiet and ride comfortably on the bare road. Their snow traction is very good and that is the main reason I bought them. We salt the roads here in southern Ontario, Canada so I have not experienced much ice. If I know the weather conditions are conducive to potential ice then I stay off the road altogether.

I have these on my 2012 Chevrolet Silverado Z71 Crew Cab 4wd. I'm know a lot of people think "why snow tires on a 4wd?" Because 5,600 lbs! That's why! I got them for stability and braking control. Sure, getting up to speed is easy enough but I'd rather have the ability to stay on the road and stop. These tires do a remarkable job. They are a little noisy on slightly wet and dry pavement but not unbearable. For the price they're hard to beat (~$150 ea at the time of this review, 11/2021). I've had them for exactly one year (one season) and I was literally anxious to have them reinstalled before the first snowfall. They added so much more stability to my truck, even with the StabiliTrak garbage GM put on the truck. I'd highly recommend these as a great budget winter/snow tire!
