The best thing I can say about these tires is that there's virtually no noticable difference in how the vehicle drives in normal conditions from the regular 3-season Firestones that it normally wears. Quiet, handles and rides well. When the snow falls, though, these made a world of difference.

Our area averages about 110" of snow per season. I haven't dealt with deep snow yet, but these tires on our Subaru Forester have done well with ice and with light snow. They've also done well with rainy roads, but stationary, on a dirt incline with many wet leaves, they (or the vehicle) struggled just a bit, but eventually did fine.
