In general, if the choice is based on safety, when you have to drive on icy or snowy surfaces, then definitely yes, you should take it, but if there is little or no snow in a city, then either noise isolation will help, or music, otherwise it’s crazy get away from the vibrating hum. And so, the rubber starts with a slight slip, but in corners and when braking, everything is very predictable and controllable. Ice is her element. I gave the rubber a run-in of 800 km and, as a result, the bear's foot is intact and all the spikes are in place, although the amateur on asphalt 2 first gears give slippage to the cutoff.
