One word - incredible.
I cannot describe the transformation of my car from uncontrollable sledge to go anywhere grip monster. Snow, ice, cold slush present no problems. The traction control light has barely flickered and the ABS has not kicked in one since fitting these tyres. Very pleased.

Made a huge difference to last winter when i had summer tyres on. Had about 25" of snow to date and haven't been stuck once even on uncleared roads. Ice is still a bit scarey...but then it would be for anything.

Last winter I drove from UK back to camp in Germany. In germany we have a lot more snow... and winter tyres are a common site on cars.
The journey i did is over 400miles. When i got back their was 3-4 foot of snow, and similar all across europe. The ICE TOURING Tyres were fantastic, the grip and confidence they give is well worth the cost outlay. ive covered about 3000miles on these tyres in snow and ice.
This year I have refitted the same tyres as they are NOT worn out. I would recommend to everyone to use these or any winter tyres. My father was so impressed he has now got these on his car.
Anyone that tells you that winter tyres dont work and are a waste of money< you can be sure they have never used them.. Why would it be LAW in Austria, latvia, Finland, Sweden and now Germany, if they did not work?

Had a pair of these fitted to an Audi A3 1.9 TDi 5 door 3 days ago - just as the snow arrived.
Last year the car was almost unusable in the snow and I never managed to get up the drive to our house. Yesterday I drove over 12" of packed snow up the 1:10 gradient without even slipping!! Went out again last night and returned after dark with the temperature at -3 and again not slipping.
I can't believe the difference in grip and am wondering why I didn't fit snow tyres before.

Had 4 of these fitted to an Audi A4 S-Line B8 with automatic box. After 1 day of snow last year I was unable to get out of my street, the difference after fitting these tyres was amazing, done around 5,000 miles in them and about to put my summer tyres back on, will be fitting them again later this year when the temperature drops. Like driving a 4x4 now!

Fitted the tyres during the snow dec/jan transformed the car from one that could not go anywhere to almost 4x4 levels of grip and they are not wearing out.

I had a set of these tyres fitted to my four wheel drive Audi TT after having an accident in the snow last year with ordinary tyres fitted. As expected you don't get performance handling and they are slighlty noisier than standard tyres but that isn't what I bought them for. Their performance in snow and slippery conditions is superb. My car now continues on in conditions where before it wouldn't and I can pass by other people with ease who are stuck and slipping around all over the place. With these tyres fitted I now have a lot more confidence and more importanly better control of my car in the snow.

Bought the Ice Touring for this winter in Scotland. Coped AMAZINGLY well with deep snow on 28th Dec, I had to do 4 runs into town shopping for neighbours and collecting people from station. It was like a 4x4!
Definitely buy again.
