Not a bad product, but I expected a little more.

Very rough, and perhaps it's because to the high load index of 102, which results in noisy tires. Uncertainty regarding the primary winter surfaces, snow that has been converted to ice. In spite of the tread, there is uncertainty regarding the porridge. My driving style is peaceful and I have never ridden on spikes, so my experience with friction tires has been excellent. I have used a variety of brands, and the quality of most of them is higher than the segment average. This rubber, to my utter surprise and dismay, ended up being the poorest of all previously used tires, which was something that I had absolutely no reason to anticipate at all. Absolutely not something I would endorse.

Pros

Extremely long-lasting rubber.

Cons

The pavement has developed a discernible rumbling. You are able to detect even the smallest bumps and pebbles, not to mention the joints and microscopic holes. Extremely unpredictable on the ice, and even the porridge doesn't provide a clear picture.
