I bought these when they first came out a few years ago. Immediately, they super quiet relative to competitors. Excellent traction in wet and light snowfall conditions. Price was decent, too. Only gripe is they are hard to get, they have to be ordered, they are never in stock anywhere. They have been the best tires I have ever bought!!!

Very quiet compared to the Mitchell that was previously on my 2016 equinox. Maximum psi on the tire says 44 PSI The information panel on the door suggest 35 psi max The side wall looks a little mushy can I inflate tires to a higher 40 psi ???? Thank you

I bought these tires because I was scared about my previous ones. These ones make me feel better. They do start a little loud (which new tires have a tendency to do that). These are good quality tires for a decent price too. I am posting this before too much ware has been put on them too (bought and placed on 1/21/25 and it's 1/24/25 as I type this now.)

I decided to try this tire because it had some better ratings than others for snowy conditions. I replaced a set of Goodyear Eagle RSA tires with these on a 2012 Mazda 3. After 4 months and a couple of snowstorms, time for a review. The tires are a bit softer and have more slide-slip than the Eagle RSA had, took me a little time to adjust to the dry pavement feel when making a lane change maneuver. They just react to input a smidge slower. There is a little extra tire noise which I notice on wet pavement, but not enough to complain about, it is just there as a result of the tread design. There was a definite improvement in traction on snowy and even wet roads in comparison to the Eagle RSA tire. Living in Michigan, this was a big positive. The only other negative was a 1 MPG decrease in my fuel economy over the Eagle RSA tires. When from an average of 35 to 34 MPG on my weekly commute when averaged over a few months. I assume this is due to a softer tire compound increasing the rolling coefficient of friction. Given the improved traction in bad weather, I can live with this.

I’ve put about 1000 miles on these tires my fuel mileage had dropped. I feel like they find a line in the road and try to follow it makes the car feel very unstable at times. I feel like they sacrifice comfort and efficiency for longevity. Also noticed that they turn gray. I had to wash them several times to clean it off. They aren’t as quiet as they say I think they are loud.

I bought these tires because of great overall experience and quality of the BF Goodrich tires I have had had in the past. This tire too is awesome, it is not a snow tire but these tires perform incredibly in snow and very wet conditions. They perform equally good on dry roads. I do highly recommend them.

I replaced noisy tires that had about 50k miles on them. The new Advantage Control tires were not only much quieter, the gave a much smoother ride than the previous set did. They seem to be very good under wet driving conditions, but I have yet to drive them in winter conditions. Even my spouse noticed the difference in theses tires!

I bought these tires because the original tires cost a little more than I could afford. The BF Goodrich tires were next best tires down from the original that dealer had in my size. I first thing that I notice were how quiet these tires are compared to the original. But down side is my gas mileage went down 2-3 mpg. And I'm losing air pressure, I don't know if its the tires or some other issue. As for traction, little less than the originals, needs more steering input and the rear wants to come around more. The tires feel heavier and looks taller. The ride is comparable to the originals.

Just bought my second set of these tires. Got 65000 miles on the first set. They are a little noisy at highway speeds but the traction and wearability are worth the small inconvenience. Traction is very important with living in the Great Lakes snow belt .

I'm very disappointed. You can feel all the road conditions. I felt driving on the not good condition paving road. Driver and passengers can felt vibration road noise all the time even well paving road. I did rebalance next day of installation but same road continuously vibration felt. I'm assuming that especially patterns design and bended middle two vertical lines made this kind of ride experience. I exchanged with Micheline tire the next day of installation on my Toyota Corolla even pay $200 more and no special sale price. I don't want to keep this tires for next few years with uncomfortable riding and road vibration.
