265/60 17 Tyre Review Highlights

Vredestein Wintrac 4 Extreme rated 86% while driving a Nissan Pathfinder
Driving on mostly country roads for 10000 spirited miles
First year I've bought a dedicated winter tyre, and my what a difference. To say there is an improvement over standard offroad tyres is not doing these justice; I was amazed at just how much grip they give, even with one side of car on ice and the other on tarmac they were composed, reassuring and never stepped out of line. Deep snow, deep mud etc seem to fall off the tyres, they self clean so well you are left with almost clean tread on each rotation. I was concerned as having no central bar all round that they would wear quick and be noisy, but were better than standard fit options from main dealer on my pathfinder. Just bought a new car, and these are first purchase for next winter, and I wouldn't consider "making do" with a normal tyre again. 100% recommended, just make sure you buy them early, because they don't stay around for long. Leave me a set though ;-)
