High traction and good handling on ice and snow Excellent handling on dry pavement
Inaccurate steering response on wet asphalt (but no risk of sudden loss of traction)
Tires with excellent performance on snow and ice, and although the reactions to steering wheel turns on asphalt are somewhat slow, control is maintained in any situation
Good handling on ice High traction on snow Short braking distance on dry asphalt
Relatively long braking distance on snow and ice
On ice, the tires behave stably and without unpleasant surprises, on snow the grip is not so reliable and can be sharply lost on both the front and rear axles, and on asphalt the tires have slowed-down reactions and a tendency to skid in complex situations
