A great SUV tyre for predominately on-road driving with the occasional off-road excursions. Handles well on gravel and rocky snow field access roads. Overall a quite and well composed ride across all types of terrain, so lives up to its AT name well.

Strange, but this tire worked well 1,5 winter season, then they not like everywhere reviewed... My tires compound goes very hard, very uncomfortable to drive in potholed road(feel like car have sportcar suspension). In 2 season tire was good in dry, wet, snow, slush...but in icy road drive dangerous compared first season. Some people write they are low noise, no they like other winter tires! I never had that kind change with other tires, i allraedy thinking no more studded tires... But reality come back after 1,5 season.

Acquired these tires for my 2009 Ford Kuga, in the hopes for a comfortable tire...
Oh, how wrong I was.
The amount of noise in the cabin, increased tremendously!
The 18 inch tires are much more comfortable, even for their dimension difference and budget, specifically as the 18's are an unknown brand!
The dry grip is not quite there and the tire feels unstable on worn roads.
When pushed on wet roads, you have to be vigilant, because the grip will suddenly disappear.
Combined with low tread-depth, they are prone to aquaplaning...
These tires will only be used on my daughters 2015 model, when she need to tow her horses around, so she doesn't ruin her own 18" tires.
I would not recommend these for anyone, unless you only value fuel consumption...

These came all new on ford Kuga, while ok in the dry and I do gave to say very quiet, the same cannot be said for in the wet, if you start to push on in the wet they just let go with no warning and just slide as though on ice. Had a frost this morning in North Norfolk and these are lethal. Not sure what to replace them with, but they are coming off ASAP......AVOID !

Vague feeling in turns, unstable on worn roads.
Wet grip while turning = sliding/under-steering...
Very noisy on rough asphalt, but quiet on fresh...
Cheap tire isn't always the best...

Worst tyre for noise on my Mk2 Kuga, Repetitive vibration from front, tyres checked no bulges/damage etc. Noise started immediately after fitting. Never again...

These tyres have excellent grip on snow and ice but wear is adequate in great Britain as we have a lot of hot summers lately so managed to get 30000+miles from a set of these tyres.aqua planning is good also .all round great tyre get you where you need to be in any weather most definitely buy again .

Purchased in Jan 2020 as my 2 front tyres and 22K miles later they need replacing ! Too soft and evenly worn to the legal limit - not great wear on these !

Had these tires on ford kuga 4x4 for 10k miles now, to say the vehicle is driven with spirit is an understatement, they perform very well in the snow, good in the wet, great in dry conditions, they wear well BUT, I find them quite noisy at speed but then again maybe most winter tires would at motorway speeds.

OEM tires on a new Ford Kuga mk3.
I think the worst tire a had in my 35 years driving experience.
Thinking of replacing them in autumn(10000km).
