Great grip on road and on sand when deflating it exceeds my expectations by miles, the treads have been holding pattern nicely for the past 65,000miles 110,000km on and Offroad on my 2017 grand Cherokee 4X4, used it on rock, sand, liver crossing with sharp rocks and handles exceptionally well on sharp turns. I would be a bit skeptical regarding what roads does it job nicely, but it does tend to plane on wet roads so better slow down

These tires were on the vehicle when we bought it and were fairly new. We are dedicated Michelin and/or Nokian users for 20 years. I find these tires to be rough riding in comparison. They make me very uncomfortable driving on ice as the vehicle seems to be swaying and on the verge of losing control. For that reason alone I would not consider buying again.

Excellent on-road tire. Absolutely wonderful in that regard. Good grip, good handling, absolutely no noise even at highway speeds, good wet and dry performance. Snow performance is reasonable, good for an M+S tire, but certainly doesn't stand up to a 3PMSF tire. Ice performance is not good, but I've found it to still be controllable and do better than other all seasons I've used. Off road it leaves much to be desired: poor grip, poor handling, terrible in mud or sand, and not particularly comfortable; I wouldn't want to do anything worse than a dirt road or basic trail on these, and I'd worry about damaging them on rocks. Tread life has been excellent, as advertised and expected.

Decided to go with this tyre because of the good reviews and the good price. I decided to get them to replace cheap chinese MT tyres which were deadly in the rain, but now with the at52, the car handles great in all conditions including rain and some snow. Its a great all around tyre with a great price but is a big on the stiffer side.

These tires should be taken off the market. Purchased new Jeep Cherokee Summit Reserve summer 2024. Followed the recommended oil change/tire rotation. The 17,000 mile oil change appointment found uneven wear on tires. Called Continental tire regarding issue- they said it was from over inflating tire and it was a Performance tire. I never added air lb pressure but no mileage warranty because bought new vehicle. Nobody wants to admit (Jeep/Continental) these are junk. Ive never had a tire howl or end it’s life this fast. I’ll never buy a new vehicle again without asking about tires and mileage warranty. Continental doesn’t stand behind its tires…

So far, these tyers have been awesome. I am impressed with the handling and steering response from a tyer of this size. My Jeep has 188k with all new suspension front and rear so we will see how long they last before I install on the wife's 19 Highlander. I will update in spring.

Tires have no issue in sub zero C temps, dry road, but issues start when there is mushy snow, it's like summer tyres. If you'd be choosing them for winter - skip and get better performing ones. If your winter is dry, then these are ok. Wear is good. These came on grand cherokee wl 4x4 2021, but i started to doubt if these were suitable for winter use at all, when entered snow. They are quiet for their rugged protector. No trail driving was done on them.

It is an excellent tire, very good in rigid terrains, rock, mud, snow and also in the sand.
Love them!

Got my Grand Cherokee in August 2012. V6 but engine size does not match any of the options listed below. Vehicle came fitted with Kumhos which I had never heard of. ( I am not a petrol head). They lasted about 2 years and 40 000 km at which point I had tread separation on two tyres. Fitted 2 Cooper Discoverers AT3/60R18 in Sept 2014 and went all Coopers in Jan 2017 at 98 000km. Cannot comment on wet versus dry grip - never done any snow nor ice driving and my typical driving style on the open road is under cruise control at 100 - 110 kph. My local Jeep agents tell me the tyres are noisy - take their word for it - I have no trouble. I am about to replace my front tyres, which started at the back, having done 140 000 km in 6 and a half years The present rear tyres have done 65 000 km in 3 and half years. My main off road driving is on beach sand as part of our work - very occasionally on rocky dirt. I am not sure whether the above figures are average but have seen quite a mix of reviews. Please note we work in kilometres.

These studded winter tires are a must in areas where you have ice, compact snow and ice or other such conditions. Complete confidence while driving. Studless tires are no comparison on wet ice types of roadway like when the sun comes out. All northern states should allow these modern studded tires from Finland.
They are a bit worse on dry pavement and wet bare pavement. One gets used to taking it easy and not slamming brakes on. They are quite and are tuned to be quieter than older style damaging stud systems.
