Had these mounted a couple weeks ago and immediately had to drive over the cobequid mountain pass in the middle of a snow storm. I was apprehensive at first because this is my first rodeo with 4 seasons tires but the tires really held their own. I've always been a firm believer in dedicated winter and summer tires but these have changed me. We were stuck between buying "4 seasons" tires or having to replace our all seasons and winter tires as they both wore out at the same time. We decided rather than spend about $500 per set on a lower quality tire, we would spend our money on the best set of "4 seasons" tires we could find. After extensive reading and watching videos we settled on this tire. I can honestly say these will serve us just fine during our Nova Scotia winters that see snow, melt, freeze, and repeat. The biggest thing I noticed was changing lanes with the slush build up in the middle of the road. You no longer feel like you become disconnected from the road, the tires evacuate the slush and stay connected giving you a very confident feeling.
If you're on the fence and don't have a budget for two sets of good quality tires, this is a great option.
