The goods are normal, money is not wasted!

Over 10 thousand km, the wear is very small, even the antennae on the tread have not yet been completely erased. I think 70-80 thousand pass if it goes like this. I am 100% satisfied with the choice for my requirements (driving along the highway for long distances + dirt roads and other non-extreme off-road areas in search of fishing spots). In short, it is excellent on the highway and does not give up on the country road. As a feature, I can note, in my opinion, too early a screech in tight corners and under heavy braking. This does not affect the braking distance and cornering stability, so I don’t consider it a disadvantage, and I don’t often have such situations. I practically don’t use it in winter, only at the beginning of the snow season to wait out the boom in tire shops, and then I slowly change my shoes.

Pros

Quiet, on the track just fine, no worse than other clean highways from Michelin at sane speeds. It feels great on primers (up to 110 km/h, I didn’t drive faster), the moment of stalling into a skid is predictable and very smooth, easily corrected by the steering wheel (Subaru Outback). Good for light and medium off-road (again, compared to the highway). Excellent behavior on wet roads, puddles - I don’t remember about hydroplaning on it in any downpour (even my winter tires lose to it in this). For a long time you can not switch to "winter". On the first snow it feels great, it slows down slightly worse than on asphalt.

Cons

Weight, heavy, and in connection with this, the suspension works differently, increased unsprung masses are felt, and in connection with this, comfort on poor-quality asphalt suffers. In fact, it is more pleasant to ride on a rolled primer than on unimportant asphalt with patches and joints.
