bought a set of these 2 years ago based on a review from this site. wasn't sure about them at first as they seemed quite slippery for the first 100 miles or so, but soon bedded in, and since then have not had any worries. They perform well all round and am just about to buy a second set. would recommend these tyres and if they perform as well this time round as last I will probably get again if available. for around £60-80 a tyre they seem to be very good value.

I have driven 1,000 miles on these tires in my Subaru Outback in the Northeast of the USA where we get 100 inches of snow per a season. So far I am very happy overall. The tires do give a firmer ride comfort. I believe I have lost about 1-2 mpg though.

I didnt expect to have winter tyre performance with all season ones... They are very good on dry and wet, far above expectations. Sorry to say but no need to have both (winter and summer ) set of tyres for light SUV vehicle. I had them on Land rover freelander 2. I drove them on muddy hills, ski slopes, icy roads and they gripped so well a had to have hard work to make a car sliding on snow. There was no place mud,snow or ice i wouldnt go, simply said... Great tyre with insane winter capabilities for all season tyre and a very good wet grip.
Wear was ok. For 25 000km they got to 5.3mm of tread. Driving was spirited only on mud ice and snow, and it was a joy with a lot of sense of control.
