Excellent handling and durability, but very loud.
Bottom line- excellent snow and wet tire, but road noise was super loud and they wear quickly on dry pavement. I ran them for 2 winters, changing to summer tires for about 7 months of the year. We used them on a minivan in deep New England snow/ice. The snow performance was awesome as we have a steep hill to drive up on our way home. With regular AT type tires, it was often impossible. With these, we could do it easily. That said...wow, the noise. Good tire overall, but you are gaining performance at the cost of noise.
