Took a used one, the rest was about 50% or even less. Initially, I was worried about the quality, but there wasn't enough power to drive (Goodyear Eagle Ultra Grip GW-3 was installed, but probably it's not about the tire, but rather the fact that it's a 2007 model).

I bought them to tackle all the snow we were told we would get, but they stopped the snow for two whole days! They gave me confidence, I was able to get out where 4x4 couldn't.

I feel great on dry roads, but scary to stop on a wet road.

I'm not sure if I got the size right (higher), but the tires are excellent. Never once have I experienced wheel locking in winter. They make you feel really safe!

High-performance winter tires. But in warmer temperatures, i.e., 15°C, they make the ride feel very soft and if the angle of feedback slightly vague.

Worst tire ever! Never again! No grip in both dry and snowy conditions! High wear and extremely high fuel consumption.
