I rode on such tires for 7 winters, during this time 80-90% of the spikes flew out, but the rubber itself was not worn out much. The rubber is good, but for buyers who wish to purchase this rubber, I will give one most important piece of advice - Scandinavian-type tires and that says it all. You will win a lot in a snowdrift and on ice, but you will lose a lot on dry or wet pavement. Rubber is not for fast, aggressive or quiet comfortable driving, but it has never let me down on the road and has worked out its functions 100%.
