Very good tyre with good comfort. Used 1 set of tyres for 3 seasons with no problems at all. And in 2 out of these 3 winters we really had some snow to fight while driving to work.

Superb tyres! Anyone doubting winter tyres should try these, followed another Impreza on a snow and ice covered road around the same corner at the same speed – he crashed, we didn't even slip: what more can I say. Fantastic feel and grip in all conditions.

If we have another severe winter I will certainly invest in these tyres again. The difference they made in the snow was amazing. I've also now covered 40000 miles and they are probably only 2/3 worn which is superb for a 'softer' winter tyre. Bearing in mind they are relatively cheap to buy there is no point looking elsewhere. The big names need to up their game as the budget tyres are getting as good for sure.
