Superb winter tyres. The lateral grip levels are amazing in both wet and dry. Very quiet tyre. Highly recommended.

Had them on the car throughout the UK winter (worst for some years) and they were superb. Maintained grip when others were sliding into ditches. Took 2 trips to Alps and were fine for long distances

Don't read too much into the ratings other than grip on snow - which was good though I wasn't ploughing through anything particularly deep. Seemed a bit more uncertain conrnering in the dry than a standard tyre but maybe my imagination. And I'm not a heavy braker.
