Bought these tires for my Audi Q7 TDI. They are OEM size so a bit narrow for the heavy SUV sitting in at 255/55/18. The first thing I noticed is how soft these tires were on poor road surfaces they seem to aid the Air Suspension to absorb the cracks even more. The steering feel is softer as well due to the increased sidewall. The traction on snow/ice is unlike anything I have driven on before and I have gone through a hand full of Blizzak models and few other brands. I think Nokian is still king but this particular tire works amazingly on any snow-covered surface. Ice is always going to be a problem for any tire however I think with these tires my SUV has not had any issues slipping and sliding. IF you are looking for an exceptional deal on snow tires this is it.

Tires are handling very well zero complaints on snow and wet roads. Very responsive and gives the car a "snappy" feeling. Road noise is piss poor but I didn't buy them for a quiet ride. Biggest fault I have is balancing was a pain never had a set of tires balance so hard. As always great price and fast shipping.
