Skated roughly 6,000 kilometers throughout the season. The value for the money is excellent, thus I gave it five stars. If the cost is not taken into account, then there are four options. There is no question that high-end tires are superior, but the cost is unmatched by other options. Tires are quiet on asphalt yet perform well on snow and ice because of their tread design. Despite the fact that I prefer to staratnut at a traffic signal, I have not lost a single spike all season. I was driving through freezing rain on the highway, but I managed to keep control of my vehicle and avoid going off the road. There are other tires that are comparable to the Pirelli Ice Zero in terms of the price-to-quality ratio, but they are louder. (take a stance on one of the company cars).
