Comment:
Area of use : Finland,Sweden and Norway My previous tyres were michelins x-ice studded ones. -the michelins were noisy and had low grip in snow. The Toyo 09 's are awesome! Especially on hard snow covered roads , but provide great traction in deep snow aswell. Only on slushy wet snow do they slip occationally. They are very quite , mostly to the lack of studs , and have a sticky rubber compound. - Only truely risky time is when the roads are snow-less but with a frozen waterfilm -aka black ice. Here one has to slow down considerably to stay on the road. Best studless tires i've ever had.
