These tires cause vibration when driving. Vibrations are bad > 40 mph and cause mirrors to shake to the extent it is not possible to read registration plates etc on vehicles behind. The tires make the drive uncomfortable and I am sure cause accelerated damage to the vehicle and wear as well as reduced fuel economy. Vibrations are not due to bad balancing, this was rechecked 3 times on different machines. I do not recommend if you plant to drive faster than 20 mph.

Wet grip is surprisingly good for an AT tire, snow grip, including deeper snow is excellent and the road noise is almost nothing.

Driven 25,000 miles on this set in a Toyota Hilux 2.5D with a rear cab that is usually loaded. I have driven a mixture of roads/motorway/gravel and across fields, both plowed and muddy, and also towed heavy generator sets to remote locations. I have not been kind to these tires! They have approximately 3/4mm but now have 2 punctures in different tires (nail and slow puncture) so all have been replaced. These tires are very very predictable, you can feel when they start to give way cornering hard in wet or dry and loose grip progressively. I have got stuck twice, once because I stopped in a deep muddy bog, completely my error and again because I pulled over and slipped into a soft ditch. Unfortunately both times had to be rescued by a Ford Ranger. Notibly reversing up a very steep wet and muddy concrete drive with a 100kva generator on a trailer (approx 2 tonnes and pushing against the trailer brake) all 4 tires were slipping in LO with diff lock on, but it got the generator up there. This I found very impressive, as well as towing a 30kva generator approximately half a mile across a ridge and furrowed plowed field. The generator got airborne multiple times but the Hilux did not get stuck. I think as a general all-rounder, these are very good. If hoping for greater comfort and improved road grip, you would need to sacrifice some off-road capability and vice versa. For this reason, this tire suits the Hilux very well and is much comfier for those longer journerys where off road block style tires are too noisey.

The tires were on the vehicle I purchase this year, a Toyota Land Cruiser 2019, Diesel, automatic. Both front tires show a wear all around 5 centimeters from the outside, 5-10 centimeters wide, like the rubber cracking like fish scales but still attached. The rear are fine. I went to a tire repair shop in Hungary, would told me it is due to the bad roads in country but the tires were fine, no need to change them yet. Not sure the road conditions are the reason for this type of deterioration, since I never saw that type of wear before (I drove other tires brand, summer & winter, in Ukraine for 15 years (Pajero 3) and in Russia (summer and winter) for 15 years (Land Cruiser 120). Overall, the used tires handle well considering the weight I put in the vehicle (400/500 kg) and how bad are the roads in Ukraine (including the Carpathian Mountains) and Moldova (the worse I have seen in that part of the world, except for Georgia-the country). The overall correct handling could be due to the air suspension on that Land Cruiser. I don't think I would buy that type of tires. Probably the Michelin CrossClimate 2 SUV.
