I do not advise buying this product, there is nothing to praise here.

I chose tires based on reviews on . market. Dissatisfied with the purchase. I was glad when the time came to throw them away, drove about 30-35 t. Km. . (for comparison, my winter Hakka-7 departed the 4th season, the spikes in place wear less than 40%) If you briefly describe the Parade - "neither fish nor fowl", weak on the highway and weak off-road, not comfort and not sport. Apparently there was an attempt to create a universal tire for a crossover - asphalt, country road and light off-road.
Touareg car 12g. benz.3.6 dimension 275/45 20.

Pros

- Interesting tread pattern, seems aggressive. This leads to the second point. - Well behaved on light off-road and in the off-season. Change shoes later in the fall and earlier in the spring (without queues). Snow porridge was squeezed into wide and deep gaps and the tread clings to asphalt.

Cons

- Noise ! Becomes smaller on smooth asphalt. The rest of the time noise, at all speeds and modes. - Rigidity! It gets better when the tires warm up but in general don't expect comfort. - Managed mediocre, badly keeps a straight line. I checked the wheel alignment on the car, all the rules, on winter tires the problem goes away. - The protector wears out adequately, but there is a nuance. on the sides of the front wheels, the protector tears out in pieces. This issue has already been addressed in earlier reviews. After 2, 5 seasons, the sidewall also began to crack, the wheels were scrapped. - Pebbles are clogged in the tread, quite large ones.
