One glaring shortcoming

I have 25k on a set of 4. Handle well, great in all weather condition. Lobe them except for one major flaw. They are extremely noisy. Regardless of speed, there is sways a drone present. You have to turn the radio to hear it. At first they were fine, but getting louder as the miles add up. Will have to replace them long before they're worn out. Horrible on long trips. What a shame on a otherwise great tire.

Poor Wet Weather Tire

Bought this tire and have 15,000 miles on tires and wet weather traction is terrible. constantly spins from a stop condition. Almost lost truck down boat ramp from tires spinning when trying to pull a empty boat trailer up ramp. Will not buy again, complete waste of money.

Jack of all trades, master of none

2018 CX5 AWD owner - FL driver, and weather. These tires made my short list because they are 3 peak snow flake rated and have pretty good ratings. This mattered to me because I'm approaching a time when we'll be road-tripping to colder states and will inevitably encounter the wintry stuff. Best word to describe these: compromise. They don’t seem particularly excellent at anything, just a great jack of all trades which has an upper hand in wintry conditions vs A/S tires. These will do 95% as good a job tires like the Premier LTX or similar – yet are far superior in winter, less $$, and from reviews it seems they actually go the distance with their rated mileage. I've always had Michelins in my vehicles and they always wear out at about half their warranty rating. I hope the following will give you a feeling of what these feel like in my GT: Handling: less of a knife, more like a spatula. With that said, they aren't fully broken in yet. Wet traction: So far so good except one red light I spun tires a little, but it might just be the release agent because they are new. Drove over deep puddles at speed, yet I couldn’t break them lose.. they just bit the road. Dry traction: It’s an SUV not a race car. They do just fine. Comfort: they are on the softer side it appears – maybe a little bouncy. However you can feel every grit on that pavement. It’s as if they don’t isolate the texture from the driver, instead they transmit it straight to the steering wheel + seats. Not sure if this is a plus or a minus, but in my case, I'm not loving that too much. Yet don’t confuse this with noise. Feeling is different from hearing. NOISE... oh the noise many complain about. This was the category in the reviews which made me hesitate at getting these, but in the end I guess I took the dive. I will divide this part into subjective as well as objective: Subjectively (personally) I do feel they are a little louder, but not much - maybe 1 or 2 decibels. The added road feel I think plays a trick with your brain to make you think they are louder than they are (combining the actual noise with the gritty feel on some concrete roads). Objectively (with a decibel app on my Samsung Note 10) – shocking enough - they aren’t louder. I tested on my car, on a stretch of road at 50 and 60 mph. accessories off, windows closed, stereo off. 50mph = 70 decibels. 60mph = 72-74 db. 70mph: 74-76 db. Here’s the interesting thing: I immediately went and test drove a BRAND NEW 2021 CX5 GT with stock Toyo A36s which are the original tires for this car– and I got the EXACT same #s / db ranges. . New OEM tires seem to be just as loud (or quiet however you want to interpret) as these. IF there is a difference, I’d argue it’s subjective and does not exceed 1-2db. However the stock tires do seem to isolate the road feel better, which might explain why they might come across as quieter. One thing these tires DO have is a little humming noise. It’s there, it’s present, yet not intrusive. If you roll down your windows, you can hear it outside bouncing off the curbs and walls and such. This car does a decent job at hiding it with the windows up but it's still there. Overall, for the promise of added traction in winter conditions, I think it's a solid tire. I don't think anything else out there really combines these features with the promised mileage these have. Oh and looks wise... smoking! I hope this helps!

Very Pleased

We put these on our 2018 AWD CR-V Touring, replacing the OEM tires and it is so much better. The ride is more quiet and smooth, the handling has improved and they even look better on the vehicle. We have found the perfect tire for our needs and wants.

Poor snow high road noise

I bought my two tires a couple weeks ago. I noticed immediately they were approximately 6x louder and with recent snow yesterday, less than 1 inch, I almost went off driveway trying to make turn ... the vehicle did NOT turn. I would have been better to get half used Goodyear tires than these!!! I would never never never recommend these if you live anywhere where the possibility of snow exists -- IMO, they are dangerous.

Absolutely Amazed: Snow/Ice Whoa!

Tonight we drove the car in a residential area with snow and ice on a 30% plus steep grade. Uphill the tires gripped the ice like normal road and was crazy! Coming back down was more anxiety than need for worry because these gripped just fine on the slope. We are amazed at the performance.

While it stopped snowing after I bought these, I’m not sure how good they are in the snow. While I have no major issues with the tire, they continuously slip in the rain on one specific road by my house. It occurs in a turn where the road is slanted/angled going downhill. Not a Streep turn, but not flat either. So, I lack confidence turning in the rain with any grade downhill.

Do not buy

Replaced my worn out Michelins on my 2006 Escape. If you want to sound like a monster truck..these tires are for you. For the rest of us that enjoy a quiet ride, spend the extra money for some Michelins. The ONLY positive is they do not hydroplane as quickly.

Bad Tires

Had less than 20000 miles on these tires when I started hearing bad road noise. Just had the dealer that installed these tires on my Cadillac SRX tell me all four tires have belt problems that cause all this noise. These tires lasted me less than the original equipment tires. Am in the process of changing all tires to another brand I can depend on.

NOT good on wet roads after 10K miles

How about only 1/2 a star, for they are only a good tire in the summer. Snow rated tires are bought for a reason and these tires fail to perform! I bought my set December 2023 13k miles ago. They seemed good at first but have since already lost the initial grip provided. The lateral drift on semi slick areas is crazy. I swear they applied soft rubber over some economical crap and now I get little traction when it’s wet and zero traction if anything worse. I bet I'm not the only one who feels there should be a class action against these guys. This is coming from a 53 year old who has plenty of experience and knows how to drive in the PNW.
